SA Footy

Heard this 2 days ago and did not think much of it,

Just read it on Big Footy and also heard it from a work colleague. Far from reliable sources but will be interesting to see if anything comes of it.

Good mates with Lehmann as well.

Would you be happy?

To be honest don't think our bowling is too much of a problem, and this guy is now very injury prone and probably well past his best, IMO don't think we need him

Agreed locky.

I wouldn't turn him down if he just wanted to come here. Wouldn't go after him as such, but an experienced bowler doesn't hurt. People harp on about how we need a stronger district comp to improve our state team, and surely having Gough open up for one of the districts will help.

interesting move if it happened (i doubt it will) here are last seasons first class stats from the england season

good to see caddick still playing well hey reb

The biggest thing to note from that is that cartoon characters are now multi-skilled. Shreck playing for Notts... WTF?

He cant bat well enough to be a SA bowler
