A CW award first - pick the Greigy

marc71178 · 17-03-2007, 05:00 PM

OK guys, there's 2 outstanding candidates for this week's Greigy, so this week I'm going to let you the members vote for who gets this prestigious award.

The first candidate is Turbinator for this little gem:

. Honestly, let's face it, as much as we all want an upset to happen, Bangladesh is not beating India anytime soon. This Indian team, tbh, is a very strong unit atm one can feel.

Bangladesh won't beat India, face it!!!

Can't wait to honestly shut you all up after Saturday.

The second candidate is Richard, who summed up Ireland's chances of beating Pakistan as:

I'm sure we're all resting assured today after being shut up!

Get your votes in quickly as it will close in about 24 hours or so.

Well given that Pakistan losing to an amateur side who aren't even as good as a single First-Class county ranks as a far bigger upside-down-turn, I shall see it as a great injustice if I'm denied the Greigy.

Mind, I should seal it after saying that India could hit Bangladesh for 450. Let's just hope Sri Lanka might manage that.

Rest assured, though, anyone voting for me automatically rules themselves out of the Sir Geoffrey for life.

Richard for mine - he made comments on both matches.

adharcric · 17-03-2007, 05:32 PM

Even the eternal optimist of eternal optimists (that's me, btw) was nervous about this match. As sad as it was to see India go down, watching Turbs get bitchslapped was amusing.

Tom Halsey · 17-03-2007, 05:40 PM

Hmmmm, going for Richard, as it was a bigger upset.

grecian · 17-03-2007, 05:49 PM

Richard of course, not only did he go both matches, it hits at one of his more annoying credos

Richard · 17-03-2007, 05:50 PM

Hits at credos?

Turbinator · 17-03-2007, 06:36 PM

Talk about adding salt to the wounds...

A Greigy would be an honour, TBH - I'm no longer eligable for the two awards I'd be most keen on were I not handing them out.

DCC_legend · 17-03-2007, 06:58 PM

Went with turbinator.

Neither deserve it, this beauty does:

Perhaps young Kervezee might have gained a bit of confidence, but if he ever makes anything of his cricket, It'll only be in England colours.. I fail to see how 200+ run pastings improve anyone as a cricketer.. Please come on and prove me very wrong

Richard · 17-03-2007, 07:09 PM

Trust Zeg to take the sympathetic route.

dontcloseyoureyes · 17-03-2007, 07:10 PM

Richard for mine.

Richard · 17-03-2007, 07:12 PM

I agree.

No, really, I do.

Jono · 17-03-2007, 09:58 PM

Rich, both of them.

Turb did make an absolute fool out of himself though, and I bloody warned him too.
