*OFFICIAL* Rebel Tour

[bugssy]

i have put some money aside so when this tour is over i will also book my own ticket to go to n/z with the cwx1 which i would like to make myself available for at the end of the rebel tour, if they have me back.

 

[gibbsnsmith]

Id rather this matter be resolved quietly, this tour was to me, a signal of our feelings and threoughout the tour, there must be discussions to stop more division amongst ourselves.


Oh, and on another note- im pleased with my half ton in the first innings but once again, got caught plumb

 

[Blewy]

This is a bloody outrage, All you people made the decision to come on the Rebel Tour, is it because you all felt insecure in your positions in the CW XI and now a few of the regulars have give up their spots in support of you, you decide you want to stab us in the back and go and take our spots... You all should be ashamed of yourselves.....

I agree with Blewy's sentiments. If you guys are going to rebel then do it properly. :P

EDIT: Big typo...

 

[PY]

I was going to say, all these people saying that they are going back should hang their heads in shame. I would like to think I was no. 1 'keeper in CW XI after the master, Andre decided to change his attention to bowling. But I couldn't stand by and watch my fellow players being mis-treated.

I would love my place back in the CW XI if I merited it but it would be a severe misconduct on my part as it was a group decision. I couldn't live with myself if I went back before it was resolved.

However, big steps are being made in the right direction and I hope it will be resolved and we may all be united under one board on control. Then, and only then, would it be right to ask permission to return to the fold.

 

[gibbsnsmith]

Im in complete agreement with Blewy and PY, here, its only a simulation league fpor crying out loud, but lets still go through with the tour for the reason, we went with it, in the first place, eh?

 

[Blewy]

The thing that gets me is if they didn't want to rebel then why did they?? On top of this what has changed since they did rebel??

No doubt..it starts of the same CWXI did .. and they think their vision is far better than ours .. but nothing stays real good for a long time.. everybody knows that

BOARDROOM BATTLES OVERSHADOW GAUTENG DRAW

The fringe players were given a game against Gauteng but the top order collapse in the second innings led to a fine rearguard action by Rik and Sangrah to save the game.

48 overs?!

I used to be a part-timer!

 

[Neil Pickup]

Fringe players had a go ... and we have limited bowling resources under rebel command!

You used to be able to bat too.

 

[marc71178]

You used to be able to bat too.

I used to go in at 3 or 4 though, batting at 7 is out of position, so I reserve the right to discount these from my average a la MRR.

 

[Neil Pickup]

The Rebel Command (sorry, Star Wars still on mind...) urge all rebels to voice their opinions in the Vote of Confidence threads.

VIVA LA REVOLUTION

Vote of confidence (Reuben aka lord of darkness)

Vote of confidence (Liam aka Mr Mxyzptlk)

 

[masterblaster]

Not a bad performance, was outclassed with the ball though.

Sangrah's Rebel Tour Stats:

Batting: 7, 62, 45, 37*
Batting Average: 50.33

Bowling: 2/29, 0/16, 1/83, 0/4
Bowling Average: 44.00

Didn't have a bad game with the bat in retrospect. With the ball, I feel I just had one bad game really.

i went on tour to play cricket, lord has done nothing wrong by me, and got to cwx1 through the grades through the a side and then deserving my spot i went through to x1, i just want to represent my team in anyway possible

sorry if i have an opinion

Big difference between being asked to open and batting at 7 don't you think? :P

Fresh bowlers, new ball mean anything to you?

 

[Rik]

48 overs?!

I used to be a part-timer!

Errrm, why were only 5 bowlers used in a 191.1 over innings? Also have you lot forgotten I bowl as well???

 

[marc71178]

That's not the idea of a rebel tour though - the cricket is incidental to the cause!

 

[marc71178]

A very valid point, I certainly wouldn't have bowled myself ahead of Rik, let alone that many overs without giving him any!!!
