Downright Donkeys 2007/2008 Team Discussion Thread

I plan on winning the FC against IW tomorrow.

I was thinking of beefing up our middle order a bit by playing Jaz down at 6. Tassie would then open.

Thoughts?

And do we have any spinners?

No matter what you do we will not win FC game. We need Bret Lee and Shane Warne.

 

[Therbs]

Looks okay. What we need to do is ensure we get a good price for the First Class matches.

The problem with First-Class Matches is the post-cricket day drinks. It works well in the ODs, because we can get away with being hungover the day after a match. Day 2, 3, 4, and 5 are our downfall in First Class matches, due to our excessive drinking after all cricket sessions. I propose we take one of these solutions:
a) Drink on day 1, 2, 3, but not 4, and then whip out our A game on day 5 (because if there is a day 5, it is a close game and we have a chance of winning it)
b) Stop drinking during the cricket season
c) Burn the First Class Matches off and just focus on ODs so we can drink more.

Now, I did put one of those three in there as a joke. So, people, will it be a or c?

 

[SciD]

c for me.

 

[Therbs]

Option A but with the proviso that on Day 3 that you drink twice as much.
B is incomprehehensible. What is this 'stop drinking'? A bloke would die of thirst.
C restricts the number of thirst building cricket days.
But I really disagree with the hypothesis "The problem with First-Class Matches is the post-cricket day drinks."
It isn't a problem, its a solution. I believe the problem is we're not drinking enough.

[Therbs]

Hey GF, its your shout mate. I'll have a Boags Premium thanks.

 

[Gilly Fan]

I was dominating last season. Hopefully I can do it again this season.

 

[SciD]

We need Sean back. We had some good partnerships.

 

[iloveireland]

We should try and poach a player like Simbazz or Aus or something or Trev. That'd get us some talk

 

[Simbazz]

Not interested.
