International Captain
Going to completely nullify morgieb's first-round gamble here. Introducing Eric Hollies.

Seen here during a typical day's work:

 

Red

The normal awards that everyone else has
Arthur Mailey. Surprised that he's still available, and perhaps his average is turning people off, but he took 5 wickets per test. And that's outstanding.



Good cartoonist too.


Monk's XI

- Stewie Dempster
-
- George Headley
- Stan McCabe
- Frank Woolley
-
-
- Jack Gregory
- Sir Gubby Allen
- Ranji Horden

Not surprised really. Mailey is typically under-rated here on CW due to the 'Grimmett Effect'.
