FMD, another injury..this time its Cosgrove. Thats a loss alright. It's a hamstring injury, anyone know how long it will take him to recover. Cleary and Duval should be back soon.

That's a big loss for SA in Cosgrove.

Very big.

Victoria to win by ****ing heaps, like they should have yesterday.

 

[howardj]

I should have been born a Crow Eater.

Love Dan Cullen, Cullen Bailey, Callum Ferguson, Cossy Cosgrove, Blewett.

Don't know what it is, but it feels right.

Show me a cricket fan my age, and I give you a Greg Blewett fan.

 

[howardj]

Mixed emotions the day he was dropped, for what we all knew was the 3rd and final time, for Haydos in New Zealand in early 2000.

Yep, fave batsman.

 

[howardj]

What does Blewett do in between his Foxtel commentary?

Is he a media personality in SA - on radio etc?

I know he hits a mean golf ball.

Myself, I was annoyed. His numbers didn't back retaining him but it was just wrong to see him nick and nudge the ball around to support Slater when Blewwy was a stroke-maker himself.

EDIT: Don't think it's limited to you younger guys either. Reckon everyone who saw him belt England around the WACA was a fan for life. Such a dude.

Have to love a man who bowls seamers in sunnies.

Problem for Blew was that he had no middle ground. When he was good, he was champagne. I give you the South African tour of 1997 and early doors in England later that same year. By contrast, when he was off, he was woeful - India 1998 for example.

Paul Jacko Jackson was the trail blazer in this regard, he was a spinner mind you.

Yup, was weird that pace was his undoing on that tour. Everyone points to his play against spin but it was Srinath who wrecked him (who, in fairness, was sensational).
