Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 Ever since I got my first Kookaburra in about Under 11's, I haven't had anything else since... And the hopefully the day I buy a Gray-Nicolls bat will never come, what snot heaps they are, there's no craftsmanship in them, just a chunk of wood with...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 I've only ever had one bat at a time, my favourite bat would have to have been my Kookaburra Sword Limited Edition that I unfortunately parted ways with last season (R.I.P.). Fingers crossed my new Kookaburra Blade will serve me just as well...

Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association I'm with Sahid, I'm still tring to work out the English translation...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 Ah, the old Under 12's trick; where you get the ball mallet before you go in, so you have the face of your bat covered in 'cherries' indicating that you've made 'heaps' of runs. :D Yet, most cherries come about as a result of the ball flashing...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 I shall ask no more... Have you ever had the 'joy' of knocking in a bat? I spent 12 hours on my last bat, only for it to be destroyed in a net session rage. Alas, now I have yet another bat to knock in, and this one is feeling promising, however...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 In a town called Rathdowney, it was about 20 minutes south of Beaudesert I'm pretty sure... I played my first ever season for the Rathdowney CC, and there were some bloody hot days that year (or so I thought back then anyway). The other reason I...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 The sport of cricket I love, the same could be said of Aussie rules (however I despise the actual AFL, so therefore am one of the least passionate AFL followers, even though every weekend during winter I am doing odd jobs around one of the two local...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 Yeah, I read over them. But I've never really been very passionate about professional sports; and as a result I'm not too opinionated on many issues (Apart from the scourge that is Twenty20 cricket...) and therefore don't post too regularly. We...

Re: Fake cricket bats I wonder, if you were swindled trying to buy a Gray-Nicolls bat, and it turned out to be fake. Would you be able to tell the difference? :p

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 Don't be silly... You were just saying how you're being away from the outside world was probably a good thing. I've got to say, at this point probably 130 out of my 207 posts would be trying to give you a touch up here, 30 on the Fantasy board...

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 I've basked in enough of my own glory with that 50... By the way I was just looking through the members list, do you realise that you have the 19th most posts on BigCricket? EDIT: 19th out of 12,600 odd members... Wow!
