[David]

Welcoming Goff and Rapp to the club (Blewy and Metallics)

Glad to have you guys on board.

I'd rather be a Jesse Ryder figure. I get drunk and get into trouble and state things like "I AM RED CRICKET"

Can I join you in that side of things?

Hi guys, some of you may remember me?

 

[Johnners]

Welcome (back! kinda ) Marc

 

[David]

Good to have you back Marc.

Can I join you in that side of things?

Hi guys, some of you may remember me?

Yeah...you're the one who can hold a bat the right way up?

Updated team list

H Mork (OP Bat WK)
M Luff (OP Bat)
DA Kearsley (MO Bat)
JJD Heads (MO Bat - RM)
SJ Singh (MO Bat - RM)
M Rapp (MO Bat - RF
LJ Goff (MO Bat - WK)
MJ Robbins (MO Bat - RMF)
C Dinnen (MO Bat)
KR Clapham (LMF)
DM Kennett - Big Chief (RFM)
MU Amir (RFM)
SV Raghav (RFM)
MP West (RF)
D Watt (RF)

I'm hoping either Singh or Heads' all-round capabilities were as spinners

The 2 spinners we were hoping to sign of the rookies have gone to blue/colts, so fingers crossed Bennett pops his head back in before season starts.

 

[Simon]

Both medium pacers

Both medium pacers

Haha really? Gun... 8|

 

[kears_falcon_9]

At worst we could get one of the fast bowlers to convert to a spinner, with a loss in bowling skill? Obviously would be last option, but really do need a spinner.

 

[Blewy]

Squad is coming along nicely.. Looking forward to playing with a good bunch of guys..

 

[Furball]

Have accepted Red's offer of a contract.

Let's go one better this season.

 

[Johnners]

Awesome! Welcome

BTW, I see you bowled a bit last season, wasn't spin perchance?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Medium pace, IIRC. This is just too hilarious.

 

[Johnners]

Sok, hear the groundsman is preparing us a pitch deadlier than the WACA of the 80's.

*i hope*

 

[David]

So, ahh, spin. Yeah. Could be troubled here, haha.

Four prong pace attack FTW.

Sok, hear the groundsman is preparing us a pitch deadlier than the WACA of the 80's.

*i hope*

He's under strict threat to.

 

[Johnners]

Hmmm, Turbs seemed half keen to have a crack again (mentioned to him on msn the other day) and IIRC he at least bowled part-time spin? (and is an opening bat)

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Sharma is your spin option? Scraping a deep barrel.

 

[Johnners]

Got to get him to sign in first....

But nah, not the spin option, but if worst comes to worst......I dread to think

 

[marc71178]

Is it too late for a kid to give up the medium pace dibbly dobblies and turn into a gentle off-break bowler?
