Going back a few years, he was on the verge of superstardom. Check out the link and see some of the names he played with. Ok, he took some stick with the ball in this game, but I've always thought he was a better bat.
Now he finds himself stuck in league cricket and in need of some inspiration.
Come on guys, let's help him out. Any suggestions as to how Al can get back to playing amongst the big boys?
I think moving in with me last year was the worst decision of his cricketing career. He now concentrates on drinking and chasing skirt more than his cricket. I'll take all the blame.
He should not be playing in this comp for starters. I know the extra cash helps but if he is really fair dinkem about getting the best out of himself he should be playing district cricket against the best possible cricketers. I think Danny played 3 or so seasons for essendon when he first started out over here in aus and im sure it helped his cricket when he was playing back at home.

I have to agree with 2o2s on this one Gooch. District cricket is the comp Fridge should be playing in to improve his cricket. Your his best mate Goochy, advise him to go to district cricket next season for his own good.
Brick Top: Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible carnt... me.
His biggest problem is he was born in England Goochy. Sth Africa,Zimbabwe,Pakistan...anywhere else and he would be playing for England right now. Seriously though i agree with Terrible he should be playing district cricket here if he wants to play top level at home.
Maybe take a break, atleast to xmas. discover some passion for the game, he has probably played to much cricket and has lost some drive. When we are 21 22 we can play cricket for ever and a day but at 25 you realise its not the be all end all. He could go and play golf or some poker. Or another option lock into that hot bird mrs number 8 in OZ for good so he does not have to chase skirt.

I really feel he needs to go back to turf 2 for a while just to get his confidence back
he will be ok, batted a lot better tonight and bowled well again also. his runs will come, dont worry about that. some good signs tonight for the boy i thought.

Rubbish. I'd play every day if I could and he loves playing too.
He's played none stop for 5 years and averaged about 70 in that time. He's in a slight drought but nothing more.

didn't see him bowl but looked pretty good for a bit when batting. Went out to a 3/4 tracker which he'd be cursing himself about.
