  • So you're all good to run the sim? I completely forgot about making that thread asking for people to help. Was probably gacked.
    Good call IMO, Faulkner is definitely the more notable all-rounder. I'll post up the thread now!
    Haha man, ****in Fed. Where did that come from.

    Meanwhile, I've won a bit on tennis multis but they can go sour too. Just reckon don't go too many legs (5 max) and also when they're small tournaments remember that favourites can lose more often than in Slams.
    Man I thought I responded to you but I didn't. My badddddd!

    Probably a bit too late, but get on Novak. Will have no issue dismantling Fed and Tsonga or Murray.
    Give me a shout on my wall when you make your draft league pick, otherwise I probably won't check until tomorrow evening as I'm playing all day tomorrow.
    I've only got one stumping this season, which was a leg side job. Combination of batsmen not wanting to risk it against a keeper they know will have them in a heartbeat and inattentive square leg umpires who aren't expecting stumping shouts in the first over of an innings.

    As to inners, well, if I start dropping balls I'll consider it. I had wet inners on Thursday night... and wet outers, wet pads, wet helmet, wet shoes, wet whites... utterly ridiculous conditions. Quote - "it was like taking guard in a chicken curry".

    Batting wise, one of the boys in my U11 side at the moment has a tendency to get inner edges off balls in the corridor that are angled back in to him - he's a bottom-hand dominant player in the way that the bat goes hard across the ball sometimes if the balance is wrong, resulting in a closed face and chop-on.

    To me, in-to-out, will result in playing with a massively open face, and that's only going to lead to drag-ons if you reach for one well outside off peg.
    * My gloves are Youth size. I hate keeping in oversize as my hands feel loose and the gloves wobble which reminds me of the fact they're there... if I'm keeping well the gloves just feel like an extension of the body

    * Inners are a part of that... they're a fit with the gloves and they're a team that create that feel. I always wear padded / half chamois ones, and I've never wet them in my life.
