Umm. Nup. Where's Northcote btw?

Yeah I remember him but never knew what happened to him. Silly move going to NSW. They've got enough fast bowlers.

Mind you, I love one day keg games. Except for the rule about having to run a lap of the oval if you spill your beer or hit someone elses. That rule sucks.
That's what I call bad luck munchie.
As for keg cricket. I don't know what it is but I suck at it. I usually have a swing and a bowl then go talk to the wimin before I embarrass myself any furthur.
