The Red Thread

Well Reds - all apologies for my poor innings (32, 4, and 9 I think), a bad patch. Don't worry, we will get over it.

Well,the consecutive losses to the Blues might well have cost us first spot in both tables. We need to play like true Reds again, guys. A team that walks away with even honours against the Blacks should not be giving it away to the Blues. :(.

On another note, Moerk is doing a wonderful job opening in the tests, and I thoroughly enjoyed our first century stand together. It is just a matter of time before the inexperienced players of Reds, including me, get the hang of carrying on with starts. And coupled with the arrival of the CW players, I can see nothing less than atleast a second spot on both tables guaranteed !

You weren't the only senior player to perform poorly, both Kennett & I didn't put in as we should have. We need to be strong for the junior players.

The key to it is to rally together and improve as a team.

There were still good points from that performance.

I bowled poorly and should've went on with my 55 and got a few more for the team, hopefully we'll bounce back with a win next game.

That was a good knock, that 55 Hoggy, great from someone batting down the order, kept us alive.

We are going through a low phase but keep working hard teams and the good and even better times will come.

Yeh we need you as an all rounder, so just train a bit harder.

Same time, I need to be more consistent.

Thanks Rob, but I don't make any decisions on my own regarding the team, the management committee all join in all discussions.

In fact for that last game I was in the minority as regards the line-up so was happy to be over-ruled.

One average performance in the season and I am dropped from the one day team as well?

Please do not start this. Marc is not the only one who selects the side. This was a decision made by the captain, stand-in captain, vice captain and other senior players. The decision was made on what we thought would be best for the side.

We would prefer that players support the team rather than cry every time they miss out.

Disappointing loss Red's, Good bowling performances from Wright and some nice batting from Hakon, Dobson and Maddocks, Very very annoyed with my OD batting form this season. Anyway just keep your chin up fella's and try and go out and win the next game.

Okay. Just disappointing to lose out. Will keep practising in the nets till no one can stop me from coming to the team :)

God, c'mon Reds, what's going on? 22 in the first innings, probably what let us down. Don't worry - we'll get over this form slump!
