Not really a biographical piece on a particular player though, is it? More of a team synopsis.

 

[Red]

I'm pretty sure whoever picked Miller did the same thing. The piece was on all rounders.

 

[Red]

So I did. Might change my pick in that case. I'll take Kieth Miller Who takes up most of this article by Fredfertang.

I guess Miller does "feature" in this article.

Cricket Web - Features: Who is the Finest All-Rounder to have Graced the Game?

The article is 95% Miller and has a great photo of his slog-sweep. Not a problem.

 

[Jarquis]

Yeah, I had no issue with that Miller one ftr.

 

[Blakus]

Yeah, when I read the whole thing it became apparent that it was about Miller. Giffen and Faulkner only served as forewords

 

[Blakus]

Matt Prior. Plays for England but was born in South Africa

 

[watson]

Nothing to do with the Draft, but I've managed to find a B & B in Southfields (SE18) for the month of August because I've decided that I'm all burned-out at the minute. Booking flights this arvo or tomorrow morning.

Trying to decide whether to go to the Durham Test (9th-13th August), or the Oval Test (21st-25th August), or both. Incidently, what's Durham like, and is it worth staying 2-3 nights?

Anyone else from the Draft thinking of attending the Ashes series?

Make sure you can get tickets first - thought they were sold out already tbh

Thanks for the advice Jager.

BTW It seems as though you may have to pick another batsman from the 'Fred Clause' besides Barry Richards.

 

[Jarquis]

That sucks.....

 

[Jager]

Yeah, I'm looking into it - gotta dash to uni now though.

This is why I didn't want the Fred clause though - the Miller one's not really a biography as such either but we've allowed it.

 

[Jager]

I'll go the country lockout on Richards then

Now I have to really plot and scheme things. And then all you pricks will take who I want anyway!

 

[kingkallis]

Monk, you can plan your pick - 2 back to back picks will be awesome.

 

[kingkallis]

So is it my turn to pick?

 

[watson]

You're top of the list KK !

 

[Dan]

Whenever I see Howe above me I get scared. Always seems to pick the player I want that round.

 

[watson]

Drum roll for KK......(that was a yes previously)
