Cricketweb poster with the best understanding of the game

[Langeveldt]

I think I have potential.. but I don't post much in here because I am so fed up with the state of the game, and would rather play cricket than talk about it. And I have absolutely ashamed myself with my stuff on Muralitharan.. I still hate him though. My opinions of Harmison and Flintoff backfired on me magnificently, but at least I can admit defeat on that, unlike some people.. Robbie P is still proving me right though!!

Neil, Marc, Top_cat and Liam have impressed me on the knowledge front.. And Kim on the ability front

Top cat would probably be at the top for mine, Liam, Eddie, Andre right up there

and would rather play cricket than talk about it.

Don't lay it on too thick.. I don't appreciate it when people go "missing" when they are proved wrong, or stick to their point until they are made to look stupid by everyone.. Admitting defeat isn't the worst thing ever, but hindsight is one of the best..

Langeveldt gets lots of practice.

I'll probably have been gunned down by Mugabwe vigilantes before then anyway...

Let's wait and see just that bit longer whether or not I have been right not to change my opinions on them.

I've gone missing several times, for several reasons, none of which include shame at being proved wrong.

Personally I think there are lots and lots of posters on here with an equally outstanding understanding of the game:
Corey (Top_Cat), Neil, Rich2001, marc71178, Liam (Mr Mxzyptlk), Rich (Langeveldt), myself, Slow Love™, SJS, le (on the rare occasion he posts something not in jest), Anil (on the rare occasion he posts something), Vish, Sangrah, tooextracool, Kyle (Mister Wright), Sudeep, wpdavid... the fact that I have not mentioned anyone does not make them not worthy of mention, I just don't want to go on forever. Andre of course does, but he barely seems to be posting a thing ATM. Certainly I can recall him saying one thing directly to me - that Michael Vandort is an opener. All of James' posts in my time here have been in a moderator's role, a real shame judging by what I've read in the more reticent parts of the forum.
It's like the Warne-Murali thing - I don't see why it's not something that, once you get to a certain level, there is little to separate.

 

[Blewy]

I nominate Marc, No need to say more...

 

[Slow Love™]

I would have mentioned all the cricketweb staff, but that would be too obvious. And in spite of Richard's crazy theories and tooextracool's relelentless pedantry, they clearly know a fair bit about the game.

Haha, you guys that mentioned me have to be kidding, you're too kind.

A few guys that I haven't interacted with that much, that I think are extremely cluey: Swervy, Kent, garage flower...

And where the hell IS luckyeddie???

 

[Richard]

Taking one of his sabbaticals, probably. Same as last time.
Hoefully he's gone to find Devil Ducky's Weekly Column.
We're not too kind, we're just telling it like we see it - you clearly have an excellent understanding of the game, like so many of us.

 

[Richard Rash]

The number of people who rate themselves as being 'knowledable' and having the best 'understanding' of cricket is quite laughable.

 

[honestbharani]

I like SJS's posts. Actually, I like most of the people's posts around here, as long as they stick to cricket and don't go to "I hate X" sort of stuff. I mean, even if you don't like X as a cricketer, that doesn't mean you have to "hate" him.
