I will respond with a question also. Can't you see he is horrible?
No, I can't tbph. He's only 18. Anyhow, this leaves us with a tie. And after checking Battrick's rules in regards to tiebreakers, seeing as I've been a manager longer, I win.

End of Over 15 (4 runs). Tawonga Tigers: 43-0, runrate=2.87 (1st Inn: 33-10)
Trail by 255 runs. (Non Talented 331-10)
Mannix 8-0-23-0
Law* 28 (44 balls)
Alshaun 15 (46 balls)


Playing my 2nd XI as I'm throwing FC this year. Interesting match thus far, in that we got rolled so easily, bowled them out expensively and have already passed our first innings score for no loss - inside a day. Law took 3 wickets as well. Good purchase imo.

Nibbs why aren't you putting more nets on him. Seriously he needs 3 Bowling nets, 1 Fitness, 1 Fielding and 1 Keeping.

At risk of sounding like Scaly, I'm totally and unutterably pig sick of the shambolic puddle of **** to which BT is rapidly being reduced.

Last week's FC ****-up could have been overlooked, if it wasn't for the fact that when I now come to log-on for the rematch, they're "experiencing database issues"

Not ****ing good enough Battrick. I don't hold with this sickily sweet bollocks that Oh Alan does his best, and at the end of the day it's only a hobby for him. Too Bad! I'm afraid that argument would only hold any water if they weren't inviting people to pay for membership.
I've paid my money, now I want my service! If you picked-up some street Ho, you wouldn't take any **** about a headache would you? And I wouldn't even care if she was only doing it as a hobby to feed her smack habit.

Not that I'm suggesting in any way that Alan has a smack habit...Though it would explain a thing or two!

Later, Trev

Hah. We're back, and I've missed the opponent's entire first innings. Not as good as bowling them out for three, but 59'll do, I suppose.

Trail by 59 runs. (Beveraging Free 59-10)
Keigher 1-1-0-0
Bromby* 0 (6 balls)

Playing a much weaker side against The Flying Wickets this time round with my team missing Kepler, Turner and Prutton. Somehow, we had them at 15/4, with comp/med Hardy taking all 4 wickets whilst strong/strong Woods went wicketless, but they've recovered to 109/4.

End of Over 41 (1 runs). The Flying Wickets: 109-4, runrate=2.66
Hardy 9-2-16-4
Savage* 65 (95 balls)
Lambert 32 (88 balls)
Last Wicket: Grahames c. Mclean b. Hardy 0 (FOW: 15/4)

I think most people find it frustrating, but it's harsh on raptornex and Jargon who do most of the behind-the-scenes work now. They do know what they're doing and they're not benefitting financially from it, but I suspect whatever advances they're making are still hindered by the shoddy coding they've inherited.
