ROW All star

Slats4ever

Whilst the UK squad have been quick to get out into media and press, it has been a more reserved approach from the ROW the world side. With this really being the first time they've come out to the media.

Things however have been going more smoothly than expected. It was thought that when there were to be two new managers this year, after the surprise replacement of Cloete, that the side would struggle to gel like they did last year. However both new managers are working very well under the watchful eyes of more experienced managers AGE and SLATS.

At the present all 4 managers are in deep discussions as to the make up of each side, with all 4 feeling very confident they have the squads to win the All star series.

The ROW boys have made their intentions clear, they wanna white wash this series. They don't want to lose one game. This is a tough ask especially against the Down under boys. The feeling is that the UK boys willl be the push overs of the tournament, and the Academy side should be easy pickings to! However it's the Down Under boys where the most fun will happen.

Stay tuned on this thread for in a few days the squads will be announced.

It's quite obvious the poor pommie boys have little depth. They will be easy beats, I'm willing to bet some direct debited accounts with anyone that the uk boys will finish last

I'll point out that I did do the RoW OD all-stars last year as well, :P

We're not rushing things, Kyle :)

Congratulation to the boys... It's clear to see that talent is spread in this reagion with no team contributing more than 2 players. There were a few notable ommissions to those boys bad luck. But to the others lets kick some butt...

Interview with Kears_Falcon (manager) after the squad was announced.

A young side Kears, obviously your taking a big leap in the dark as to how these guys will perform, with some of them only having 1 year in the "big league". Was this a concern?

Well no not really me and ian had a short talk which managed to expand over 5 days as to who would make the squad and even if they arent experianced they make up for it in love for the game

Last year the side was hit with controversy about homosexual love relationships? What measures have u taken to crack down on that this year?

are well all players have to be fitted with condoms and thye have all had over 1000 hours of lecturing.

Finally what is the key to the ROW side winning this year?

the key is good crikcet and the only way to paly good cricket is to listen to ure coachs so boys listen up (to us that is(me and ian)not to the coaches from the other sides)
