goodbye Cosgrove

Let's hops so. He's wasted everyone's time for way too long.

David Hookes: First Class Average 44
Mark Cosgrove: First Class Average 42

Such a waste of time.

Nice. Round up Cosgrove's average and not take into account that Test cricket has dragged down Hookesy's first class average. What is Cossie's average in the last few seasons? He always seems to get out just before lunch or whenever he's been out there for a few hours. I can remember Hooksey scoring a ton off about 34 balls and scoring 300 runs in Shield match. Can't say the same for Cossie though.

A) I didn't round up Cossy's CURRENT average, I rounded it down. I rounded David Hookes' up, however.

B) A first class average is a first class average.

C) I'm not saying one is better than the other, just pointing out that their averages are similar, at the same level, so claiming he's a "waste of time" is a wasteful comment.

D) He's fat. I reckon I would average two less if I weighed the equivalent of a baby humpback whale.

SA 2/184 [33.4]
SMITH 79*[92]
COSI 89*[95]
300 Looks likely in 50 overs
oops
Itsa SS game
167 partnership and perhaps the best batting SA batting of the summer

Smith is getting closer to a unique feat
100 First SS dig of the summer , and perhaps 100 in his last dig of the SS summer

[Rik E Boy]

Ha ha. Good answer. I looked up Hookesy's Sheffield Shield average and that is 47.77. Maybe Cossie is fatter than we thought. I'm going to stop bagging him now because now we (as in the Bluebaggers) can't get him out.

COSSIE YOU GUN.

That should do the trick.

Yep it did. Didn't take long either.

[RoosterMarty]

So do we still get rid of Cossie or do we keep him?
