Brendon Drew of Tasmania

I know you guys rave about the standard of FC cricket out there but jeez, this guy has played 2 televised games in 3 days over here and looked utter medium paced filth.

Sounds like Doug Bollinger last year.

Pfft, you try playing 2 games in a short space of time in unfamiliar surroundings and do well. And Drew struggles to make it into the Tasmania team a lot of the time anyway.

Stop playing the appeaser.

Total gash!! May as well have kept Mark Hardinges

I'm playing the 'don't judge a cricketer after 2 games in a foreign country'.

Never said he was that good anyway.

Phurt, he's Tozzie gash. What do you expect?

Yes... he was a bit average. So why not play an Englishman or at least a Briton? Dont mind overseas players but surely they have to be better than the rest of the team??????

Quite.

PJ's on a 'he's aussie so he must be greatttttt' crusade.

Gash, end of.

Well after watching him this afternoon and seeing his brilliant figures of 7-0-60-1 youd be forgiven for thinking he WASNT an overseas player

And he just got out to a massive swipe across the line. To call it agricultural isnt even close. And to Moeen Ali as well...

Yeah where did I say he was great?

Cricket seems to lend itself to people dismissing players out of hand off very little evidence.

Tasmania is quite a weak side? no?

Likewise, where did I dismiss him out of hand in my first post?

Unless gash means something else in Scotland......

Neither of which were in my first post...

Lacks depth

Drew is just a backup Tasmanian player (behind Hilfenhaus, Griffiths, Geeves, and in recent times Wright, Downton, and Denton). He has some potential. How far he will go remains unclear.

PP ... Tasmania 'a weak side'? ... won the Shield two years ago and has woe the National ODI competition twice in the last three years.

That is all.

How about Omari Banks playing for Somerset? Saw them play a couple of weeks back and he didn't even get a bowl. Crying shame that home grown talent is being denied by overseas players of such little repute.

Oh, the shame of it.
