We are not moving forward with this player though. He is similar to Cozzy in manyways but we dont need a batsman that can make a quick 50 we need a bloke who can bat for a day and a half and allow us to make 500.

That's why Victoria left him out in the cold.

The heat'll be on them when he blasts out an avalanche of runs.

There's been a freeze on contract negotiations.

I believe Blizzard will be moving in to Adelaide during the winter months.
Media can't get to him as he's putting up a cold front at this stage.
yada yada yada

getting back to a somewhat serious discussion - i agree. we dump cossie becuase apparantly his scores havent been good enought and replace him with a bloke that only averages 30 in first class cricket and 20 in domestic one day cricket.

Will play 20/20 and maybe the odd FR. Wont get a look in at the Shield. Didn't make a run in district cricket last year for Richmond. Not a 4 or 5 day cricketer. Still could be a handy pick up though, as 20/20 is where the money is made for future talent or real recruits.
