The Victorian home for broken down tassie quicks

In uninteresting to anyone other than ma, and 4 others news, Tasmanian fast bowlers are playing some sort of sick game with Victoria.

First Gerard Denton comes to Victoria, and in the three games he is fit he takes like 80 wickets.

Then he retires.

Only to then un-retire and sign back with Tasmania.

Then his former Tasmanian new ball partner, the also always injured Damien Wright signs with Victoria.

Is there some Tasmanian fast bowling rehabilitation plan going on in Victoria at the moment?

Is Ben Hilfenhaus next.

Why Victoria need near crippled Tasmanian bowlers is beyond me.

Peter Sizzle, Dirty Dirk, Crazy Clint Mackay, and Eyelids seem like a good roster to me.

And none of them are in any danger of playing for Australia.

Should Victoria continue to take the tassie quicks, can we make requests, cause I really like Brett Geeves.

I don’t care if he has been rubbish in the IPL.

    If anything, Eyelids is in danger of playing for England.

    That’s a little harsh on Paul Collingwood.

    I meant Sidebottom, but yeah him too.

    Did you know Collingwood played club cricket in Melbourne for Richmond, and almost got promoted to the Victorian side.

    I did NOT know that.

    It’s maybe a good thing for him that he didn’t stay. The sun, you see, and his pale strawberry-blondness.

    Is that why Andrew McDonald struggles.

    Not sure, but I think it explains the sudden and shocking decline of Chris Rogers.
