2011/12 Redbacks Thread

[jo172]

At the risk of jinxing a good start it feels time we started up this baby again. After a first up win in the Limited Overs we've got NSW 5/95 with 4 wickets for big Petey George after declaring at 9/478 with Dan Christian tonning up!

I just hope the Redbacks haven't peaked too early in the season.

To be fair, them peaking at all is more than they've done for the best part of a decade.

 

[Tadpole]

Good point.

 

[Cap]

to have two good days in the first match is atleast a better sign than the past - especially against NSW.

hopefully, they can just have a consistent year and NOT come last.

 

[Tadpole]

Consistency would be a good start; unless of course it's consistently bad.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Um... we won again

 

[SydCrow]

classy knock again from Ferguson

when does he get into the Test team?

 

[JP Sauce]

When he moves to NSW.

 

[jo172]

Decent day today, need to keep them under 350 tomorrow.

Crickets a funny game. Was a disaster of a day for 90% of it, and yet suddenly we're right in it.

Indeed.

Also, if Pakistan was playing wouldn't our fingers be pointed at something sinister?

 

[SydCrow]

anyone know why we signed Doropoulos?

seems like SA is a half-way house for guys who can't get a game in their own state. Surely there are Adelaide kids coming through the system who we could be spending money on rather than 26 yr old Western Australians?

Won the batting prize in the Victorian Grade competition last year. Made Berry think he deserved another shot at the top level.

And read the grade scores, there's really not that many blokes without contracts deserving one.

Another decent session, rolling the Warriors for 335 and then getting to 1/60 off 14 overs. Really need Harris and Ferguson to settle in for big scores now.

 

[rayven]

Ferguson got a start , he should know that you need to make the most of them at first drop.

103/2

Redbacks are too perpetually shit to be jinxable.

 

[SydCrow]

Christian coming off a big hundred - can he back it up?

 

[SydCrow]

nope - time to bump the other thread

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Yep back to the usual standard now.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Can always trust the redbacks to back up a decent performance with garbage.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Anyone know why Beer is playing and Lyon isn't?

 

[Smoooothy]

selectors punishing the redbacks for performing too well perhaps??
