Good on Carey, GOat Hearder and the boys for having some guts and going with a team for the future and nearly rollling the Turf boys.
Credit to you all.
Ps. note to self.. leave half trackers.
Thanks for your comments PC. It's nice to get some positive feedback from somebody that actually knows cricket and plays it hard, instead of some clueless nobody sniping away from a keyboard.![]()
It proves what carey, OB & myself already know - that we're on the right track with a decent nucleus of good blokes & good cricketers in our rep team.
Full credit to you & the ATCA guys on the win. Glad that we were able to give you lads a run for your money in the end, even though I was spewin' when I heard we were rolled for 75. Although I was stuck in hospital, my general message to carey beforehand was for our guys to compete hard, and you never know on any given day how it'll pan out. On paper it was an apparent mismatch, but we all know the game isn't played on paper. We feel we can clean up PDCA & ASCA if we can assemble something like our best side, which we've proven in the past. Hopefully this competitive result inspires more of our upper echelon of players to put their hands up for representative honours.
It augers well for the Carnival later in the year, where I expect to add at least 3 more quality, experienced turf cricketers to our squad, where some tough decisions will need to be made. And that's the way it should be.
Still going on about it GH? I hope I haven't kept you up at night in the past weekFrom now on I'll just tell you what you want to hear and agree with everything you say boss
Don't flatter yaself champ, although it's good to see you actually acknowledge that you exist as a clueless nobody. Acceptance is the first step.
