When is his WI punishment for leaking secrets over?

Is he keeping in shape before his return?

Come in JAs' and shed some light...

for leaking secrets

In reply to wcd

That is a good lineup.At any given day Marlon would out perform most of these batsmen.

Simmons,Ganga,Morton,Deo,Bravo,Ramdin,Pollard,Dowlin,R Hinds,Smith and Smith doesn't have that much on him when it comes to batting.

 
wcd 2010-02-09 10:28:03 

In reply to TheTrail He is as good as Gayle,Sars,C'paul

I do not think there is a man on the team right now that can hold a candle to him, none.

I would live with that problem any day, compared to the problem I witnessed last night.

While I am well aware that you loathe Samuels I will let it be known he is my favorite cricketer next to Gayle, and I am not from JA.

 
nateram 2010-02-09 10:48:41 

Looking at these threads one would think Samuels averages 50 in all forms of the game, this guy does not average above 35 in any form of the facting game.

 
natty_forever 2010-02-09 10:52:37 

In reply to beharie ... yet them ban him for 2 yrs, go figure. With our esteemed paas captain saying he did not see Marlon doing anything wrong and yet he voted in favour of punishment. The day Richie Richardson became captain was the day West Indies cricket died. Mark you a feel he is a shythound (anyone that averages 30odd or less at our FC level), but guilty, not a raas.

 
TheTrail 2010-02-09 10:56:19 

In reply to wcd

He is as good as Gayle,Sars,C'paul


Nah,those three are better batsmen than Samuels.If yuh want to argue about Gayle well that is debatable.

Sammy might not have the power hitting ability like Gayle but when it come to stroke playing,he could outclass Gayle. smile

Play it again Sam, after doing all the WICB mischief he ran like a girl when they abandon him.

How many in this WI team does. Sammy played 29 test with an 28.73 average before his two year (banned)sabatical. If yuh want to say that that is not acceptable,I would agree but tek a look at some in this team who are still playing for the last two year while he is away and they have stats just as bad as Sammy's.

Most players who are in the top team that have 30 test matches under their belt,so to speak, are hovering around 40 to 47 average in test cricket.

tek a look at some in this team
... so we swap black dog for monkey ... now you see why we rated #8. Sammy and frenz need to step up at the FC level before being selected ... the benchmark has been set by Barath ... 3 seasons with an average above 40 ...bowlers benchmark ... a sub30 average

So would you drop them to play him, based on what?

He has to earn his way into the team,score runs in our dung heap competition and prove he is not just a "celebrity" shithound.

In reply to nateram

I would not say drop him for them, at least not right away...he has to play his way back into the team and if he scores heavily in the regional matches, he should play ahead of a lot of these pretenders masquerading as batsmen.

no one said or is impling that,how many guy on the team has 30 average?


cool

 
rillo 2010-02-09 12:54:50 

In reply to TheTrail

What is his age?

Why let him play at all.

He gambled on the game while a player.

No he can go play for Jca but not WI.

There are too many young ones coming through to go back.

Backward never forward ever ent.

I agree no one has said that but the way he is being called for, its like he is the savior, he has been on the team and has done very little to convince me that he is and his numbers reflect that...I would be happy for him to prove me wrong. cool

Samuel is just one example but when you look on this bunch you can think of a few guys were not even average that are better.

What become of giving a person a second chance? He paid his dues for the nonsense that transpired. I believe he has grown up since then.

There is no guarantee that the youngsters coming through will perform better than he at the international level.

Are you not going backwards with Wavell Hinds?
