But apparently those feet did, in ancient times, walk on Englands mountain green!!
Weather they like it or not, England only have themselves to blame for Australia being raining Ashes champs
You could have at least gone a bit more contemporary and said Duncan!
I mean apart from the guys in the NBA at the moment who grew up there.
Is it too late for West Indian cricket to get its swagger back?
No no, you are right! There are no Carribean kids who move to the US to attend high school and college because they have been spotted by US scouts!
I am in fact positive there are no US scouts even in the Carribean.
Is it too late for West Indian cricket to get its swagger back?
Certainly not blaming them, but it is what it is and I can’t see any way back for WI cricket
Is it too late for West Indian cricket to get its swagger back?
They just don’t have the talent to compete anymore with kids looking towards Football and US sports.
Is it too late for West Indian cricket to get its swagger back?
They don’t have a history as sep countries playing, and they also do not have the populations individually to support competitive teams.
Do not get me wrong, I grew up watching the great teams of the late 70s, 80s and early 90s and I truely long for the WI to field teams like that. That is not going to happen though, for a number of reasons, the 3 biggest being, economic, geographic and lastly the fact that the Caribbean Islands want to move on from their colonial past and all the hurt that came with it.
Could Major League Cricket be the key to West Indies' resurgence?
That will not solve the issue.

although they weren’t that fierce in the late 90s apart from Curtly Ambrose, although Walsh was still good????

Six Points: Defending Josh Rachele, the Blues' unsung hero, and why the Dogs would be mad to sack Bevo
And no team plays their home games there!!
The playoff finals for promotion are also played there so as to not give any team an unfair advantage of playing the game at their home ground!

The money that can be earned in the NBA, MLB or major soccer comps will ensure that the West Indies will never be a dominant force in cricket again.
Unlike everyone else, they don’t have the patriotic link to fall back on by “representing your country”.

What word? Not sure one word would explain it?
What happened? I am genuinely asking why.
Was there some conspiracy I am not aware of?

Auskick is juniors hahaha.

I would guess that the reason most good qld players played in the NSWRL was because the qld clubs were too tight to pay them fair wages. I mean if the following was so good and the crowds were raking in the coin that the NSW clubs were, then why could they not pay blokes? Why did TV want to show the NSW comp and not the QLD comp? Why did the qld clubs get flogged in all the cup comps?? I mean the NRL really should have been based in QLD with mostly QLD clubs and it would rival the English Premiership!!

I know how auto correct goes so did not want to go there

JUNIORS!!!
The numbers you are quoting for touch and tag are not just juniors so are irrelevent.
And if you think that RL is not using the numbers from the link I posted, I have a bridge to sell you

Are you saying that the RL is not including these numbers, which is what Auskick is the equivailent of?
The Touch and tag numbers you are wheeling out include adults which make up the majority by the way

Where did I say touch?
NRL includes tag. Touch is not a RL exclusive game either.
RL and RU juniors both play touch.

You have the NRL logo up there Rosie. Suggest you actually visit their website and look up juniors

If you think that is “same logic”, I hate to think what you think logic actually is.

You also did not counter 1 of my points. I assume because you are clueless and can’t mount a argument.

I think the one thing everyone forgets is that Usman is the only one Ollie gave a send off to.
I wonder why that was??
