Sounds like Don Scott

Just don’t finish like Don, it consumed him and ultimately was the cause of his death.

100% the legal Eagles were very good

or

Remember Eddie "The Fireman" Birchley always betting odds on, taking the tomatoe sauce odds all the time

as the saying goes,
Never bet odds on and never run up stairs

And always with his trusty David Jones bag full of cash. Always a cash punter which probably says something about the source of his money ?

He’s not wrong. When head was batting in the first innings I was talking with a mate and we were discussing the areas on the pitch where you would be bowling and as a batsman the balls you’re leaving. When the ball hit the pitch we both simultaneously said “Leave!!!” Obviously Trav couldn’t hear us over the TV, but we had only just pin pointed that delivery as Heads sucker ball. A bit to do with the pitch but mostly bcoz we knew Trav doesn’t have the patience and couldn’t help himself to such a delivery and the pitch would make it difficult to play early on if at all. Trav is not alone, just an easy target.
You can’t just blame the pitch, players must read the game their in, but you don’t suddenly get the shortest game in 130 years (uncovered pitches them days), for no reason. It was an error to leave the grass so long, but everyone knew it walking out there.
