    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Engineer: Some sceptics on here have questioned my support for him. Follows is an article worth reading You have more talent than me," Geoff Boycott once told me. "But because of my temperament, I’ve scored more runs." I looked at him and replied, "But Geoff, who do people come to watch?" That...

    What would Bradman average if he played in a typical (i.e. neither batsman or bowler favored) period of the modern era (1970 - current)?

    And I have seen it in person and some posters here are just waffling about rubbish

    Twin Hatricks

    In the swirling mists of cricketing folklore, amid tales of Bradman’s brilliance, Warne’s wizardry and Scott Boland’s recent blistering hat-trick, there lies one name that defies belief — Jimmy Matthews, the Australian leg-spinner who achieved something so improbable, it reads like a misprint in...

    That nails it right on the head better than this old fella could have done.

    Would you have both Warne and O'Reilly in your ATG XI?

    Not very often I disagree with you mate BUT I believe Don Tallon may be a better choice as Keeper. The batting lineup in that side is probably the best of all time and you need a first class Keeper to back up that tremendous Bowling line-up. If he only comes in at #10 then so be it.

    On Redcliffe Peninsula they are known as "Redcliffe Dolphins".AND they do play some of their games at their own Kayo Stadium. So I think you are splitting hairs a bit.

    Totally in agreement with this sentiment. Tallon without a doubt the best gloveman i have ever seen play.

    Just a quick reply..... The Dolphins are NOT a Brisbane side. Their base is 45 Klms from there and a separate city of its own... Like wise The Titans
