With Jackasses like these small wonder why we keep regressing.
Notice, only the players are to be blamed- it is only a bat and ball problem affecting WI.

Another Jackass Blames the Players
In reply to Emir
and these players that full of flaws are completely 100% in charge and actually picked themselves...
no need to go any further.
In reply to Emir
You read dat article and came away wid de author assigning blame?
Those jackasses.
How could they leave the faultless Bravo and Pollard, and waste their picks on the likes of the fault-full Dowrich, Hope, Blackwood, etc.
They deserve all the flack directed their way.
In reply to powen001
Really? You sucking up to Emir or wat?
He also said dis
In reply to Maispwi
You didn't read that Powen said "no need to go any further"?
Powen's lips perpetually shaped in an O so he could suck something.
In reply to Maispwi
Powen probably eh even read di ting.
Even if he did...he eh get it and as usual just needs somebody else's opinion to latch on to..once it's in a certain general direction.
Childlike really.
In reply to Maispwi
Show me where we lambasted the real culprit- the WICB- he started off accusing the players.
Point is right about you guys, coming in here to blame the players while turing a blind eye to the main culprit.
In reply to Emir
Your bias is clear. Findlay's points are valid. Even with a more inept board talented players to us to dominance.
In reply to Larr Pullo
Man oh man! Yuh packing a huge punch. Oh gawsh!
In reply to Maispwi
Agreed with this 100%. Most of our players DO NOT know how to play straight. Most of the time they're trying to play the ball square of the wicket. I would hire Hoops to coach at the Under-15 level.

Findlay:
Powen for once, let's have an honest discussion. Give me your take on what Findlay is saying here?
Keep it pithy though...three decent sentences on point will do.
In reply to StumpCam
The same Hoops who averaged 30 sinting over his entire career?
In reply to LBW375
Some of the greatest coaches were mediocre players.
Blow everything out of proportion. Everything Findlay says is absolutely correct.
He said "it is the West Indies fault" and "we have ourselves to blame "that encapsulates everyone, including himself.
"The region has not addressed the teams batting and bowling flaws" and "these problems need to be tackled from the primary school level"
Only idiots will read this and interpret it as blaming the players.
In reply to Emir
The man made a number of factual statements as well as a suggestion for a way forward.
Wat he did not add was dat de best coaches shud be the ones to nurture those young minds.
In reply to LBW375
Only idiots will read this and interpret it as blaming the players.
Well...ahmmmmmm.
In reply to Cheeks
I say...Pow! Pow! Pow! ...when will he learn?
In reply to Courtesy
I hope soon...but I suspect never.
In reply to Cheeks
Allyu run Powen. Not nice
In reply to Cheeks
Like the idiots mainly responsible for the death of WI cricket?
It is only b/c of people like you, those in Governance can stay in power- I feel only pity, when your type cannot assign blame to higher authorities first, it goes back to blaming workers, and the ironic thing is, I bet you are in the "worker" classification.
I pity you.
In reply to Emir
Look...yuh eh read the article properly...and yuh get Powen to agree wid you (which should be a warning in the first place )
Cut yuh losses and run.
In reply to Cheeks
Cut yuh losses and run.
Arab leaders have a tough time with the english language. Spare a thought for De Emir.
In reply to Courtesy
then re read what I typed.
and this time ...THINK it through...aint lowering my standards to play to a gallery.
After all that was said..THE PLAYERS DONT PICK THEMSELVES IN SPITE OF THE OBVIOUS ISSUES NOT BEING ADDRESSED.
Now you got a clue...apply it.
all for now.
In reply to Courtesy
In reply to Courtesy
Ok, I'll take it as your attempt as a harmless joke, but know once its repeated more than once it then becomes an ethnic slur. I am sure you don't like ethnic slurs- we have too many thrown at African Americans in this country.
Findley flawed with the bat and as a selector now talking bout those same flaws.
In reply to powen001
You are one arse.
Powen, the lead sentence in any story (article) will set the tone and direction of the write up. It can stand on its own and sets the direction...what follows the lead is usually supporting evidence and other details.
If you can comprehend the lead sentence half of you job is done.
What was said (quoted) to back up the lead sentence is pellucidly clear...i.e. the systemic failings of Caribbean cricket. :"...the region has not systematically addressed the bowling and batting flaws".
The REGION Mr. Findkay said...all concerned have failed...from the WICB right down across the spectrum. In other words the "Caribbean team" responsible for the development of the game is at fault.
You have just proven how much of a skunt and a dunce you are by your last post with your comment that "players don't pick themselves inspite of the obvious issues not being addressed".
What does your vomitus above have to do with Mr. Findlay's assertions that "the core of the problem is we are not doing the fundamentals stuff correctly" and no part of the entire "Caribbean team" is blameless in that regard.
If the players picked themselves would it solve the problems highlighted by Mike? You shunt.
Don't bother to respond... I don't waste my time on jackass droppings.
