If everyone got on here and reminisced about dropped chances off their bowling the thread would be 2,000 pages long!!!

How has Elmore gone after returning from North?

Hard to tell from afar but the results look ominous for them.

Is he a bowler or a batsman first? My belief was that he was a bowler, why is he batting at 3? 180 runs at 20 is not good enough for your gun player. Doyle has outperformed him consistently.

Bowling wise 9 wickets at 40 isn't great either.

Relegation game this week v OEG and after that they have winnable games v Hampton and Doutta, so they may stay up though I doubt they will beat Hampton.

Elmore came to Australia as a keeper batsman and bowled a few overs in his first stint at AN. He then was appointed Captain at Middle Park and started to open the bowling and performed much better with the ball than bat. At North he batted 7 or 8 and bowled mostly as first or second change. The word is he will be looking for a new club next season.

Why do you say that Southern?? He'd be a handy pick up for any club and would bolster both bat and ball.

i'm pretty sure Lee is about 29 or 30 at least now - so he's not really a 'young gun' as was noted earlier.
