NRL Twenty20

[Mrs_T]

A small article in the tele yesterday -

"There's talk of staging an NRL Twenty20 match, with stars Benji Marshall and Lote Tuqiri set to pick up the

bat and ball for the one-off game. It has been penciled in for Drummoyne Oval next February.

A massive crowd is a certainty."

I'm interested.

I can see Benji diving for a catch and dislocating his shoulder. Season 2011 over before it began.

In any case, who wants to watch footballers play cricket? The sport is struggling to get crowds to watch cricketers play cricket (unless it is the Ashes). Stupid idea and every first grade coach would have every right to object to the match.

or i hate to see somone get a short ball like Tim Paine last night and break his finger!!!

 

[Spartan117]

actually you have a point - No longer interested.

Benji is fielding at point. Batsman plays the ball very softly and tries to go for a quick single. Benji is quick onto the ball and flicks it out the back and gets a run out.

Don't rule this scenario out.

I saw Tuqiri bowl at the bushfire charity match. Wasn't the worst. He opened.
