gay fish (U7932210) posted Jul 11, 2008 We don't need to declare at all. We should be looking to build as big a total as possible before the rain sets in on Saturday. Ideally this will be over 500 then we can set a very attacking field and hopefully be spearheaded by a very grumpy Sidebottom.

Oh_Not_Again (U12632430) posted Jul 11, 2008 It would apear that Billy Bowden is a fully signed up member of the get Collingwood out campaign, how else can you explain that decision? How to end a test players career- give him out caught off the pads when he is short of runs. Comment on this article |
