Did you ever have Shaun Obrian at one end Craig Wilson the other with Big Grenville slagging you off calling you a 'pimply face little fag' I did.
Wasn't enjoyable that's for sure
Drakey the left arm prick bruising my ribs big time.
Tomlinson wasn't fun cracked my helmet once
Col Rundle was very good not just quick but very good.
I really rated Obrian from Salis North
A little later than these blokes but again rated Ratcliffe
Garrard was handy, Gawlar Centrals had a good bowler can't remember his name? Maybe Norton?
Westies opener North was good
Opening the batting at 15/16 to these blokes wasn't fun. They were like sharks smelling blood when a young lad faces up to them.
I loved it tho
Ah the memories, back when grade 1&2 was a decent level of cricket!
Sean OBrien has very slippery on his day, loved saying "just like shelling peas".
Eastern Pk had a couple of lefties back in the 90s that could send them down too, can't remember their names, think one was Steve Warren but not 100%.
Garrard was quick and a lefty, scared the living beejusus out of me one day so I went played a few seasons with him just for him to get me in the nets every week, prick!
I remember facing Norton in a semi final at Smithfield oval late in the day after we had bowled Centrals out, all I wanted to do was see out the days play in fading light and he send down a couple I didn't see, fortunately in survived the day and won the following day.
