Bird, Butterworth sign on Sport - The Mercury - The Voice of Tasmania
Butterworth and Bird sign on.

 

[bondi beach]

Another two quality players sign on for Tasmania. Their squad is shaping up very well and is full of quality.

 

[benchmark00]

PEWS to ****block imo.

 

[bondi beach]

Only Cazzulino, Krejza, Smith and Triffit to go for Tasmania. Of the four Triffit will be the hardest to retain as he has the offer of first team cricket at Western Australia.

 

[brockley]

Tassie have a good under 19 keeper name of i think Michael Jones,averaged round 40 in the state under 19 cup,could have been a back up to Pierson and Bancroft at the world youth cup.

 

[brockley]

Definitely give Doran a contract,could be a bolter for the Aussie one day side,O'keefe is a **** one day bowler should bat 7 in the one dayers,Hauritz had his chance an impressed no one,doherty now being found out,lyon and holland jury out for one dayers.

Australia to play Afghanistan.
Its official Triffitt signed with West Australia.

 

[AlanJLegend]

With Paine coming back I'm really not too sad to see the back of Triffit, especially considering we have retained some massive names.

Have no idea who Andrew Fekete is. But rumour has it that a Victorian batsman may be signing on for Tas for next season...

 

[ajdude]

i remember fekete was on the top gun competition over the summer, can't remember if he was any good or not

 

[vic_orthdox]

Fekete played one game for Victoria at the end of the year, acquitted himself well until Theo Drop whacked one back into his foot, which broke it and put him out for seven to eight weeks. He finished the over with a broken foot though.

Played a fair bit of 2nd XI cricket for Victoria over the years. Good back-up option, similar to Maher.

 

[brockley]

Mitch Marsh linked to Blues(wants more cash),Steve Cazulino signs with Tassie.

 

[brockley]

Copeland signs for NSW 2 years.

 

[toolie]

NSW news :

****ley and Brain look to have been delisted.

Tremain,Cruickshank, Daniel Hughes, Lalor, Dawson, Henry, Abbott have come onto the full list.

Doran and Gurinder Sandhu have come onto the rookie list.

 

[bondi beach]

Not surprised about Brain or ****ley to be honest.

Will they be able to fit Marsh in their squad having given contracts to all these players?

Patterson Conway and Sandhu named for U19 World Cup

What about Conway for a rookie contract? Aside from those in last year's squad any news on Coyte, Patterson, Smith or Thornely getting contracts?

 

[toolie]

Sorry I think I forgot Patterson pretty sure he is on contract not sure if it was rookie or full.

Coyte hasn't had a contract last two seasons but has played he has signed to captain Blacktown in grade cricket so is staying around. Rumour is Thornely is retiring.

Conway and Sandhu were going for the one spot. Sandhu had a good season two seasons ago in 1st grade. Conway is yet to have a decent haul in a grade season.

Conway has NZ heritage so be interesting if he gets offered a contract over there.

Bills and Van Der Gugten have both come through the pathway as well and are a bit more advanced than the others at this stage.

 

[Spikey]

why hughes why

 

[Spikey]

also Cruickshank what the ****? dude can't handle pace.

 

[toolie]

You talking Daniel Hughes? Cruickshank can handle pace if anything he can play the short ball bloody well.

 

[Spikey]

in the qld shield game cutting was cutting him up just with pace, and in the bigbash he struggled with it too.

 

[Spikey]

also bit surprised by dawson. that's 3 keepers. obviously he was the best performed grade batsman, but he hardly impressed in the shield game, and they had him batting at 7...
