I'll give you my greatest side in batting order.
Heavily influenced by people that have played the last 35 years.

how can you have marcus thorpe in the best team for the last 10 year, if your going to pick a keeper you cant go past moose from Noarlunga and if you pick him more as a batsmanyou pick allard to do it.Then you can pick an alrounder perhaps a greg bolton from sullies or a comer to goin that spot.

Thorpe has mad two A grade centuries, don't think moose has. There also has to be someone there to keep the egoes of all the others in check.

The mind boggles, Shoe Boy, even better with Thommo and K.Irvine umpiring :lol:
Wish there was a quality cartoonist around to do an oval scene of it ---- I can picture one player on the boundary giving the crowd "the finger" with the ball at his feet, while the bowler has his nose in the face of a batsman that keeps hitting him for six !
