I was going to give that post a like or love... right up until the last word.

tbh I didn’t really recognise anyone else until I saw him and just thought they were a group of young drunk boofheads

His best mates appear to be Hampton and Pringle

Ask him for a selfie, if he says yes walk away without taking it, if he says no take it anyway and delete it infront of his face. Win Win.

They probably were.

I have also noticed, that it is a huge advantage to be in the same age bracket as a certain administrator's son. Even more than has been commented on before (by the NZ U19s actually playing some games in years between world cups).

But there is basically a defacto NZ U21 team (NZ Dev Squad) operating for the last 2 years now, as that previous U19 cohort move up the ages, playing the provincial A teams.

It's fishy as ****, isn't it? Like I'm not just saying that loosely on an internet page...I truly think it all looks dirty. Seldom ever seen nepotism the likes of it.

Rutherford run out again. Mariu having a great game. What a dream debut season.

Hamish looks like he's batting in a Golden Oldies match, running like that. Can't help but think he's injured or just the body is packing up, because he's had a bludger of a season.

Ford Trophy final. On YouTube, with multiple camera angles. Uncertain if there's commentary as promised.

Thanks for pointing this out - and yes, there is commentary! I am not sure who the commentators are, but they have a Sports Roundup vibe and that is making me happy.

I assume we’re not getting Spark coverage because of the postponement. I was thinking about this and it must be the first time the domestic one day competition final hasn’t been televised since the 80s … and it could well be the first time ever?!

 

[straw man]

Ford Trophy always the unloved cousin of domestic cricket but I just flicked this on via Youtube and it's good. Not sure who the comms are but they're not too bad.

Kieran Noema-Barnett appears to be one of the commentators. Quite watchable really.

 

[straw man]

Clarkson just wanders up and bowls a ripper, just nipped in slightly I think.

Not first ever.

89/90 season was first time tvnz televised it.

Both Ajaz and Lennox very tough to get away. Canterbury can't risk trying to force the pace any more either, as one more wicket and they're into the allrounders.

 

[straw man]

When I first saw Clarkson bowl years ago he bowled lovely outswingers and looked like he had plenty of potential. Then he had several injuries and his medium pace became highly smashable cannon fodder for several seasons, when he was fit enough to bowl it. But kudos to him today, no great pace but bowling a great length with a little nip off the seam and very hard to score from.

And Canty short of their usual Ford Trophy all-rounder at #7 with Foulkes injured and Shipley with NZ team.

Interesting. Just looking at it, I didn't realise it dated back to the start of the 70s, I thought it would have been early 80s. Thought TVNZ would have had it on throughout the 80s though. But first time I remember seeing it was 91/92 round robin games.
