I think that the state teams should make one place available for a bangle or Zimbot as a development position...time servers such as goodwin, lehmann, arnberger, maher, nicholson, marsh should be bought off given development coaching roles and stand aside...
this would be a terrific contribution to the development of cricket in poorer countries...
A Flower ...flop Blignaut...flop Goodwin ...who's basically a wozzie anyway Ervine..is shagging swampy's daughter and hasnt played a game for the wozzies anyway but has been contracted to them Thorpe ...didnt play ...already mentioned

Mullally , McCague. White ...before they remembered they were poms
In the last 30 years
Richards Roberts Garner Daniel McKewan Botham Imran Hick Marks J Crowe Hadlee Holding? and Tassie have had a few more who I cant remember ...but not recently
At a press conference before a shield game in Vomitville , Lock wrote "A.V.A.P" on a blackboard behind him ....The last question of the day was what did the letters stand for ...."All Vic's are Pr!cks" was the reply ....
rofl he would know...after he was called for chucking he famously bowled in a shirt 2 or 3 sizes too big with billowing sleeves rolled down to the wrists
_____________________________________________ Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

ROFL - priceless from a chucking Slurrey p*ick.
Read an article yesterday which claimed that when Laker bagged his 19 Aussie scalps at OT back in '56, he returned from the dressing room balcony adulations only to find that Lock had already packed his bags and left for London. Miserable sod!
Benaud tells some risque tales dating from that particular series ... and that particular match. Get the impression he didn't exactly take to the balding chucker!
Other visitors in the last 30 years or so (not an exhaustive list, just some I can recall):

This doesn't include players like Craig White, Jason Gallian, the Hollioakes, and Symonds; who learned their cricket here after either arriving on the planet in another location or before they scooted off elsewhere.
