One of reason why Hauritz left originally was that when he played FC cricket he barely got bowl. Personally reckon Queensland are pretty poor at giving spinner a decent bowl in the games. They pick them regularly in the side, but most of the time they barely bowl an over.

Had a numpty offie who snagged an ODI or two too, didn't they? Was thought to 'jerk' a little?

Matthew Anderson, it just came to me. Big tall dude, you can see him in this video, i think.

Your thinking Geoff Foley I'd say. Couple of Aussie A games from memory but that was about it. Classic Mercantile Mutual Cup all rounder - straight breaks with the ball and left handed nudger with the bat.

Rob - yep Anderson it was. Apparently not the worst bowler.

I can't even think of that many examples, but if asked me to describe what a Mercantile Mutual Cup all rounder was I'd have probably said something very similar.

Noble One · 24-10-2012, 06:05 AM

I remember Folley was no balled once in a Sheffield Shield game. I don't know why the umpire bothered, one of the most docile slow bowlers to ever play at that level.

Ian Wrigglesworth.

So tall, made it look like he was batting with a toothpick.

Kade Harvey, Scott Thompson, Jason Bakker, half the Canberra Comets team... Those were the glory days!

Noble One · 24-10-2012, 06:16 AM

Another Folley sidenote. Scored 155 on debut against Pakistan with an attack of Imran, Aaqib Javeed, Waqar and Qadir. Bowled a few overs and dismissed Imran.

Prince EWS · 24-10-2012, 06:18 AM

I always think of Scott Kremerskothen when I eat a McChicken, because back in the day when I was starting to get really involved into my support of domestic cricket I'd eat a McChicken near enough every Saturday afternoon while the MMC was on, and I randomly decided I was going to 'support' him. He was a bit different to the description in that he was a bit of a slogger rather than a nudger and a nude ball med bowler rather than a straight breaker, but he still fits the general theme.
