Just got home. As I feared our hopelessly out of form batsmen would not be up to it but even by their standards that was embarrassing. Thank God for 'feed the snake'
Season over.

Pathetic, woeful display and that squad needs a good clean out and a new captain.

Mark Wallace is now for the glue factory with a few others not far behind.

That display will cost the club dearly as a lot of people won't pay good money to watch that shite.

Hope my golf at Llanishen is better in the morning!

didn't even manage to find one of the hats they were giving away.

At least I managed to sneak a bottle of wine in.

I think Hugh Morris needs to have that difficult conversation with Rudolph. It will hinder the club if Rudolph is there again next season.
There are also players who perhaps need to be offloaded including Cosker and Salter. The latter has been a huge disappointment having promised so much 3/4 years ago.
I have been a big Mark Wallace fan. Top man and a great keeper over the years. His batting is now very scratchy though. Cooke was his obvious replacement but with his back problems it may well be that he cannot keep wicket again.


The likes of Donald and Lloyd show promise but are both really struggling at the moment. They will need to be a lot more consistent next season if they want to progress.
Wagg and Meschede have been very disappointing in T20 and one day cricket. Neither take many wickets in the four day stuff.
I hope Tait doesn't come back. No surprise that he was no better than the rest of the bowling attack in stark contrast to Steyn. Once Steyn left and Cooke was injured the performance level in the shorter formats dropped off a cliff.

So another poor season. This will surprise no one.

Agree with your summing up, we've mentioned Rudolph's captaincy on here a few times but what do you think about Croft's coaching? To be far to him he's not got much to work with.

I think he has to be given three seasons. He faces a huge task to make the team competitive. There are some decent young players but there are too many journeymen playing alongside them.
His biggest task at this stage is to sort out the Rudolph situation.
