A useless bit of FB trivia

Yesterday my son caught out Graeme Pollock's son.

Did he give him a send off?

According to him he did a "Flintoff"

Huzzah.

Is the Pollock sprog any good?

Getting on a bit now, but could play a bit. If I could access statsguru I would put his player page up.

1st Class?

Yep.

Anthony Pollock

If he's getting on a bit it would be Andrew. I think he's forty something. Bowler who could bat a bit?

No Anthony, the batsman.

Tidy.

Can see he can still play. My son said his hands were still sore 4 hours afterwards.

So Graeme Jr smeared one in the air in the vicinity of taips Jr, then?

More like a booming drive to a fairly short cover.

Brave man, or loyal dolt?

He said it was one of those funny ones were everything seems to go in slow motion.

Well your lad beats me easily in the "rubbing shoulders with a famous cricketing relative" stakes.

The closest I have come is I have a mate who played Grade cricket with Alan Border and my little brother played country A-Grade cricket with Alan Border's little brother (AB's parents and younger brother moved to my home town in the 90s)!!

Well my oldest did get Dean Elgar out in a school game and the cheating stinking uomire didn't give it.

My son is still pissed off about it.

I'd be impressed but I'll need to look up Dean Elgar first!!

Ooh, a tidy young Saffie up and comer, ay?

Also has a player page.

Became the SA U19 captain shoertly after the incident in question

A lot of people are pushing him for higher honours.

I shall watch with interest. If he goes the distance I shall remind FBers that you saw it here first under the heading of taipan's musings.

Actually he might have already played for the "A" team.

"I pity the fool."
