is there any hope for him... Is he to old and does he have the discipline to come back and represent, at a minimum, Jamaica?

In reply to dwinston

Has he been receiving counsel for his addictions to ..things plural?

In reply to powen001

Enlighten me, what are those 'addictions'?

We must be careful with our words on social media when it concerns people's reputation.

that boy had all the shots in the book

In reply to dwinston

still a good prospect. i wish him a swift return.

he and Cook played in the same u-19 wc

Idi put the blights on him

There is still room for an opening batsman or two in most formats

In reply to jacksprat

addictions to low scores when given the opportunity... there is said it very carefully..

He test positive for some 'unknown' banned substance, way back in 2008. He played for a local team recently and made lots of runs.

In reply to matchstick

Powen will now jump on this new opportunity or on the other hand, he will capitulate...never to return on this thread.

In reply to matchstick

A couple of high scores and he'll be back in the fold.

The X-man is coming back

In reply to vulcan

He looks fitter...but 300 against some schoolboys is really no news. Let's discuss again if he makes the national team and puts up big totals against regional bowling.

In reply to SirGarny


That's no schoolboy league, bro. That's senior cup; most of those guys are eyeing National selection

In reply to jacksprat

based on previous reports and what I saw with my own eyes here in BIM.

if you discount what I have read and was told...I still stand by what I saw for myself in St Lawrence Gap in Barbados.

check the archives..I have long supported Xavier and called for a mentor to cover him...I was told that he has to WANT to be mentored before things will change.

I surmised that he rejected offers of support.

I hope that helps.

Cannon Fodder has arrived.

But Powen, please tell us whether what you saw with your own eyes were Mary Jane, Coke Head and Susan Heroin?

In reply to dwinston


When last did he represent Jamaica

In reply to vulcan
From where?

In reply to powen001

Xavier Marshall has had problems with discipline over the the year and is on record as having smoked marijuana-like several 'legends' and former and current West Indies cricketers- but this insinuation about 'addictions (plural!)" is not supported by any evidence of which I am aware.

The fact that there is hear-say or a million people repeating the same character assassination does not make it right or enough to satisfy me that an assertion is factual

In reply to jacksprat

powen claims to have knowledge.
You asked him to enlighten you.

He never claimed it to be hearsay.

Now yuh off on a tangent about character assassination?

My source told me he was playing cricket in NY. I guess he is back looking fitter.

In reply to JamMack

Today's Gleaner story seems to suggest that he is there and has been there in JA for some time.

Given the parlous state of the Jamaica XI batting over the last year I would not be surprised if he makes it back. He seems to want to!

In reply to nick2020

If I ask if an individual is receiving 'treatment' or 'counsel' his pyromania isn't the implicit assumption that the individual does in fact have such an affliction, by inference?

This is what Powen asserted:



And I asked him to enlighten me on the basis of this assertion.

In reply to jacksprat

I have come to a conclusion based on what I witnessed for myself and at the time the other players...Bravo, Sarwan Polly were embarrassed and said nothing..as there was nothing that could be said.

This was 2007 BTW...

So to say that this is character assassination is quite the opposite of my intent as I was sincerely enquiring about how he has been doing.

IF you have more recent information..which is what I was seeking in the first place , please share or ..don't.

my question still stands.

It will of course be quickly answered if I see or hear his name on a team soon...or at the very least an indication of steps in a welcome direction.

I don't check for the Malice..not against players..I tend to fail in that regard when it comes to wicked CEOs and managers tho.

In reply to powen001
I don't mean to be pedantic but I do seek some clarification.

What exactly did you observe in 2007: Marshall behaving in an inappropriate manner; or Bravo & Sarwan being 'embarrassed' while Marshall indulged in the substance(s) of his "addiction(s)"?

In reply to Cole

What do you mean, "From where?"

In reply to powen001

Man just say addiction instead of addictions (sic) if you have any proof and done with this foolish obfuscation you are pursuing and argument done.

You are communicating in English language and it is being interpreted as such.

Cho man!!!

In reply to vulcan

are they related?

In reply to Wally-1

I don't know...one plays for St. Ann and the other St. Catherine. That does not mean that they couldn't be related

In reply to powen001

If yuh want to be an honorary Ja yuh better get yuh addictions right

In reply to sudden

Leave Xman alone with this frivolous "addiction(s)" bs. Is people like you that leave ah man to suffer just so yuh could point ah finger.

David Murray send me to tell you and powenful to hush. Glass house hens.

Powen: I was looking for you at de oval - how yuh do?

In reply to pelon



Man I am not criticizing XM. I am criticizing Powen criticizing XM and getting criticized for not getting his criticisms correct.

In reply to Wally-1

The story mentioned ...

But the picture shows a right-handed batsman in full flow.

In reply to powen001

Maybe you should pray for and with him a la Ryan Hinds.

Look how well that worked out

In reply to powen001

if you born and grow in St Anns and never smoke ganja well to be honest,that would be very strange.

In reply to jacksprat

Was he not tested for Senseh and Fletcher took his 1M$US


Best young Bat in years...

In reply to Dan_De_Lyan
Thanks. That is a matter of public record.

And I have already noted that above. But just the mere fact of having smoked marijuana does not make one an 'addict'-with "addictions, plural"-any more than having imbibed rum makes one an "alcoholic"!

I have heard no evidence that the young man has any "addiction(s)"

In reply to jacksprat

I

TRue, however he violated the WI/stanfords Rule bu taking One draw..

He had issues with his temper(also documented)

His people should have nipped those issues buds.....

I see a man looking for Powen at the oval and making the common mistake of assuming he was sitting in a seat and not under it. lol

But dont feel too bad. Powen too short to occupy a seat by himself. I know you was not expecting that the stroller you passed in the aisle was occupied by a full grown adult in Powen, getting the best vantage point possible, given his limitations. And I know you wondered how such a little baby could have such a big head. Thats why they had to chock the wheels with bear bottlers and juice boxes in addition to the wheel break. His big head have a habit of causing the premature release of the stroller break and send him careening down the ilse.

In reply to Ewart

left handed keeper..lol

they need to legalize the substance in the caribbean and tax it... losing years of a talented players ability

In reply to pelon

Powen denying Murray got addiction(s)?

In reply to Raggs

Raggs;
Some do but most don't

In reply to Controversy

Marshall's career was not permanently derailed by that incident because he played for Jamaica after that.

His problem is that, despite his obvious talent, after almost 10 years, he still averages in the low 20s with not a FC century to his name

In reply to jacksprat

According Wikipedia

On 22 August 2008, Marshall broke the record for most sixes scored in an ODI, previously shared by Sanath Jayasuria and Shahid Afridi. He managed to hit 12 sixes in a score of 157* from 118 balls against Canada as the West Indies won the match by 49 runs.

Would this count as an FC?

In reply to billydred

No no! ODI is not 1st Class.

ODI don't have no Class!

In reply to pelon

greenidge an haynes day 1..yesterday in the board room from lunch.

Was sure I wouldve seen you too...unless we aint recognize one another..according to the ladies serving I look real sweet..but that aint change in 47 years so I not sure what happened.

In reply to jacksprat

Jacksprat...

This has clearly caught you off guard so for me to extend the discomfort would be uncalled for.

you will not get me posting what I saw here...and I am not a Private message kind o fella either.

All I asked was if he was being attended to...I for one remember asking this question several times..with no one coming forward to touch it after all these years..this is PRE HHGS and HPC btw.

I dont know why..but I do remember meeting the lad post a wonderful innings at the oval...all he needed was a big brother to mentor him through some things.

I already am disturbed that my genuine question for his welfare has been railroaded by imo...refusal to answer a simple question.

So..we still at Square one...

In reply to powen001

powen you doan have to say nuffin.
even I believe you.

"What a tangled web we weave..."

Powen it is improper, deceitful and downright disingenuous to suggest on a message board that Xavier Marshall is afflicted with addictions and don't provide one iota of evidence in support of this claim.

The onus is always on the poster to establish the truth of the allegation.

This is especially so when the young man cannot defend himself here.

Hawk!!! spit.

In reply to Courtesy

In all fairness...I don't think Powen intended malice in this one.

I think in the heat of posting...the word addictions came out. Non-lawyer folks prone to these kinda things.

A lil bit o looseness with words is the issue here.

In reply to Cheeks

Really?!..ok

In reply to Cheeks

And that's my point which was articulated much earlier.

Just say addiction as has been reported and the story would end there. But in his usual way of trying to get out of a tricky situation he employs his contortions.

Just say...I made a mistake...it's addiction and move on.

Wha wrang wid that?

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy

I think I'm right.

Powen's malice is reserved exclusively for HHGS...because they dared to demand some accountability of CHG.

In reply to Courtesy

Point taken sah.

In reply to Cheeks

Thank you sah.

Bump.

Powen you have a final chance to establish the truth of your allegation.

Come clean.

In reply to Courtesy

When your addiction is to something that is both singular and plural - sheep - or you are addicted to an action - shopping - it is acceptable to use addictions.

e.g. Ravi's addictions to doubles.

Powen, do you recall this exchange with you and De Courtesy on this MB some moons ago as well as attendant PM's? If yes, what do you recall?

From De Courtesy's archives:

I will help you recall the sequence of events if your answer is in the negative.

In reply to Courtesy

how is powen lying? he said he has firsthand information and he is not divulging much.

In reply to nick2020

I have 'first hand information' that you are a child molester!

Is my 'evidence' good enough for you?

If you sign an agreement saying u cannot use any illicit substances, as benign as we may feel those substances are, or you will lose you earning oppportunity, and you STILL go ahead and use such substances, knowing that you would be tested and there is a zero tolerance stance, THEN YOU HAVE PROBLEMS THAT NEED ADDRESSING!!!


***I know, I know, Smith should be and was rightfully dropped....

In reply to jacksprat

You are talking pure bunk. Powen said he saw XM and heard other things. From that he was able to say something that goes to an addiction to a banned substance. Powen would be a v good witness as he can give an eye witness account of what he saw and perhaps what he heard. Only matter in dispute is the addictions bit

Your having first hand information is not clear enough. It has to be brought out what is meant by "first hand information." Powen's information is v clear

In reply to sudden

Mate, on a point of clarification seeing someone smoke marijuana does not constitute addictions.

There is a pyschological and or physiological component which is present in all addiction(s).

Powen has used the term addictions loosely and carelessly.

In reply to Courtesy

Correct- that is why I said that is the bit in dispute. Jockstrap's point or the point he appears to want to make is a different matter

In reply to sudden

No. I will not pursue Jackstrap's angle.

This is a dangerous road that Powen has traveled for more than one reason.

And even then, saying an addiction is not correct either.

Addiction to dangerous substances has to be proven medically and otherwise.

In reply to Courtesy

Maybe so but it is Powen we talking about. I am sure he thought he was being helpful if not harmless

In reply to sudden

I am in no doubt about this. But there is an established pattern of behaviour here to be considered.

P.S. Just read the argument with you about his The Sunday Sun readers' comments on the last general election. And how he used this supposed poll that was not a poll as empirical evidence to predict the outcome of the last general election and how he tried to wiggle his way out.

In reply to Courtesy

What? Shortsighted, short of the mark...

In reply to Courtesy

Neither PowFence nor Jackstrap are qualified to diagnose(or not) addiction(s). They are simply two jackasses with keyboards who rightfully should be arguing with each other sans intervention from anyone else. Y'all kindly get out f the way and let the jackasses do their thing....

In reply to Larr Pullo

Noted.

In reply to Larr Pullo

Powen isn't going to argue with any Ja on this MB. He has worked too hard to ingratiate himself into the tribe to jeopardize their tolerance of him. He is likely to apologize v soon even though he is on solid ground

In reply to Larr Pullo

lucky the spudster on layaway..

before you get at me, i'm only facting with you, ok.

In reply to Wally-1

Spuds was banned because he couldn't help being an officious fucktard! He should have spent more time posting about cricket thn trying to be a message board English teacher. I mean who spends time on the internet correcting English???? He was better served marrying his interests and becoming a distance learning professor of English.

Serves his rass right....

In reply to sudden

And you my friend are talking out of your ass-you must be related to Larr!

An individual come on a public forum and besmirch someone reputation by alleging that the person has "addiction(s) plural"

To further bolster his assertion he claims to have that he observed this individual indulging his "addictions"

1- I am yet to see any evidence posited to support any assertion of any 'addiction'-much less multiple additions;

2- I don't know that he is personal friends with Marshall so whatever he claims to have observed would have had to be in a public forum where Marshall would have had no expectation of privacy;

3-Smoking herbs, though illegal in most place at the time, does not make an individual an 'addict' to marijuana or any other substance. If that were the case then we would have been calling people like Viv Richards & Ian Botham-both confessed marijuana smokers in the past-'addict'.

I have heard or seen no evidence, whether public or private that Xavier Marshall has any "addition(s). Maybe, Powen is privy to other evidence to which I am not privy-so I am imploring him to present it or else cease and desist from sullying the young mans nae on this public Message Board.

The accusation is already in the public domain so I think this is where the evidence should be presented as well

In reply to Courtesy

Powen put he foot in his mouth which given his height is not a difficult thing to do.

In reply to jacksprat

You accused him of heresay and have failed to prove that.

So your analogy (or accusation) is not the same.

In reply to Courtesy

I have to agree with you here much as it means also agreeing with jockstrap. The other fella is prone to loose talk to ingratiate himself with the tribe. This time, not for the first or last time, he misread the tribe's position.

Seeing somebody smoke does not qualify you to pronounce on whether or not he is addicted.

In reply to Courtesy

boss.

worst than you and more powerful than you have accused me of stuff.

you could bring forty more cowards and opportunist to score cheap points with you and accuse me of lying. ( yes Fuzzy I mean you- you are a bloody coward of the worst kind- my opinion..there may be worse that I haven't met on this MB..or in our case in person...actually I prefer the person I thought I knew to be the REAL you..but alas)

It will not affect the truth.

you can continue to hawk spit..final chance my rusted bicycle...steupse.

In reply to jacksprat

I got to ask you this, you up in arms about what Powfence said re Marshall and you seem never ever to exercise such extreme caution when you were lambasting others for about a year on the MB. What gives?

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy

Identify where I said what I saw.

Who is this tribe you talking about?
JAMAICANS are a tribe? or you mean the hapless hopeless Yardfowls in the DLP?

the real joke is that I didn't even see that crap before I responded to Courtesy.

WUHLOSS. He gorn mad now wuhloss

In reply to powen001

You have once again been royally exposed. You leing piece of shit.

And I will continue to expose you using your own words.

I put it to you...you have no evidence.

You are just pursuing your tried and tested modus operandus...that is leing.

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy

Strange world that I am defending powen.

It is a message board not a criminal defense. Did powen ever state that incident was his sole knowledge of said person's addiction(s)? No he did not. Jacksprat challenge he to show his hand and powen opted not to. He choose to believe he was bluffing. I bet powen holding pocket aces.

In reply to powen001

Powen,

Tek a page from de PM. Tell dem you ain't saying a ping pang.

In reply to jacksprat


Powen referred to addictions yes. I have said that is the bit in dispute. However, it is public knowledge that XM has failed a drug test. Coupled that with what Powen saw and perhaps what he heard it can reasonably be assumed that XM is addicted to one or more substances hence Powen's reference to addictions. I hope this helps

In reply to nick2020

You know jockstrap and i doan see eye to eye so it takes a lot for me to defend his position. If the other fella got information produce it or retract the loose statement.

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.....

In reply to jacksprat

You really know how to waste time.

What reputation am I sullying?

you need to climb down off o that horse that aint trotting in any direction.

I know what I saw...and was very privy to.

I don't owe you squat!
I never said that I saw Xavier involved in smoking..but run along with your over active imagination and rallying the silly ones to follow you.

I am actually more surprised by your false sense of injury more than anything else.

As a Jamaican..what have you done to reach out and assist Marshall..this thread was about him..how he was doing..his chances of returning to the squad?

I simply asked how has he been doing given the known facts about his addictions.plural..

go look up the word addictions... and tell me how that besmirches him

We all have addictions..of various kinds..your error is that you jumped to rock of conclusion that was really a pile of dirty snow and now your premise is melting ...

you have to deal with that.

my question still stands-

How is Xavier and has anyone been mentoring/ coaching him and I mean a strong MALE figure who can cover him when he needs it most..either on or off the field of play- IF A CAREER IN CRICKET IS STILL VERY MUCH WHAT HE WANTS.

your turn.

Ok my brother! You run the route!

But you are an honorable man!

I do hope you will have the same haughty attitude if or when you are contacted by Xavier Marshall's lawyers.

and I assure that my concern for the young man is sincere..

the matter of the fact is..It was Xavier who I really wanted to meet that night when I was facilitated..

needless to say..my hope for him has not wained one Iota...I was buoyed by the title of the thread..hence my question.

for the record..Lawyers don't scare me...what scares me is that too many of them believe I would succeed in that profession.

I will stay in my lane.

In reply to jacksprat

uncalled for

Froon is a good man just not my cup of tea. I would have preferred a cawmerian yes. I will still defend him until the cows come home.

I was there recently and we have charted a path forward. See how he in the public recently- from republicanism to signing oil deals. Look out!

In reply to powen001

I will not have you besmirching EBOLA!

What I'm trying to figure out is how you guys know which addictions Powen was talking about. Maybe he was talking about addictions to smoking cigarettes, or perhaps women. For all we know, Powen might have seen XMan in St Lawrence gap chain smoking in the company of some lovely ladies

sudden my friend, be forewarned. Powen will not hesitate to slam a frivolous malpractice lawsuit in your ass if you lose his case

As usual you inserted yourself into a situation claiming to have the wherewithal to out the fires and secure votes.

Shakespeare once spoke of being wary of Cassius cause he had a lean and hungry look...you Sir have used your Girth to literally squeeze into places that defy logic science and physics.

Your SantaClausity has been used to beguile many but not this poster...for your prosperity has been based on a mythical fatted calf that was truly nothing else but a bony black belly sheep.

In reply to Courtesy

Having re-read the thread and having considered all the submissions I have to revise my position. It is one thing to have seen something or heard something but how does one then accuse another of having addictions? How do you make that leap? Even if one can reasonably assume that what one saw or heard can be attributed to an addiction, how can you say for sure outside of some reasonable proof. I submit there is none here at least from what Powen has posited. And then to breach confidentiality by saying that he wanted to counsel XM or XM wanted to approach him for counseling! What gall!

As such it is not unreasonable to conclude that there are no grounds for Powen to say that XM has, had or will have an addiction or addictions, what he saw and heard notwithstanding

In reply to sudden

You have been fired!

In reply to Courtesy

He's a double edged cutlass for a lawyer

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy

This is a requirement of all lawyers. No exceptions.

In reply to sudden

Sudden good.

In reply to powen001

I note with intrigue that if the standard of evidentiary support being applied to your statement is applied to all mixed statements of opinion/fact made on this MB, lots of posters would get nuff licks.

BTW, with apologies to dwinston, this is a thread about XMan's addiction(s). But how yuh could put di man bidness on the street so though?

In reply to dwinston

No need to rush man.

BTW, I have nuff time for Xman. He is a class bat. Saw him make 80-odd in a test against Australia at Kensington. Lots of wasted talent ... but about his addiction(s)

In reply to nick2020

7 legs and a big ton with barely a contribution from the man who started the thread. dwinston is a borse

In reply to Walco

In reply to Walco

From the time Powen entered with his scurrilous remark, it turned the thread on its head.

In reply to Walco



My apologies for derailing the thread unwittingly

Sudden and the usual suspects wanted to bash both Jacksprat and myself ...but ended up having a tissy fit among themselves.

I still waiting for an answer about if the lad making a come back

In reply to powen001

No he is not making a "comeback" since he never really went anywhere. Marshall continued to play club cricket and has even been invited to trials and doing very well.

The Wavell Hinds-led Jamaica selection panel just decided to move on from him.

In reply to jacksprat

thanks..

so his scores at club level were less than attractive?

In reply to powen001

No he has made runs at club level and has even been among the leading run getters at trial. I guess they just decided that he was not cutting it at the higher level and decided to move on

In reply to jacksprat

mmmmm...I see your comment on the Hinds lead....hmmm...

Bump.

In reply to Courtesy

one of the best striker on the ball...sorry to hear he is not taking cricket seriously
