Despite his claims to the contrary, he’s a 27 apologist.

Also VERY full of himself. His best asset is his voice.

It seems Santokie refused to be part of this episode......It is one of the few shows, I regularly watch.....

He is CWI man..... albeit in camouflage....


He never expected to beat Australia in West Indies..

He never expected to beat India in India...or N.Z. in New Zealand...


Then Coley... with his team beat Australia in Australia..beat Pakistan in Pakistan...

Then CWI removed Coley... Appointed Sammy..

Sammy dismantled the entire team...


Sammy and other coaches can't be compared ....since Sammy has been given unfettered power as Sole Selector...non of his predecessor had...this point Mr.St.Hewitt deliberately side step....

By his own admission, out of 26...only 6 wins in T-20...

We were 9th in ODI.... February 2023..

After 2 years 10 months...West Indies 9th.... with Bangladesh at 10th ...with 3 points difference...

Mr.St Hewlett conveniently says...West Indies played qualification for 2019 and 2023......World Cup ODI.....as they finished 9th... but intentionally didn't mentioned that this time....top 9... automatically qualify...South Africa as host...

2019.. West Indies was 9th..

2023..9th..

At present, West Indies will slide to 10th,if lose to N.Z. ..

With Sammy, we sliding to 10th, after 2 years 8 months..

Not true. WI will maintain their 9th ranking is a 3-0 drubbing is suffered in New Zealand, due to NZ being ranked 2nd.


The only reason why WI face automatic qualification this time round is because Zimbabwe automatically qualify as host, so the next 8 top ranked teams would encompass WI at number 9. They are mere points from falling below Bangladesh at 10. Sammy is not responsible if WI qualify.

@Seechy

Before N.Z. series... England had 88 points...after two losses...86....


West Indies had 80 points... before Bangladesh series....after 1-2 loss..79..


Bangladesh was at 74.....now 76...

Absolutely incorrect...


This 2027 World Cup will have 14 teams....In 2023 only 10...


South Africa as host qualified....so barring South Africa top 8....so 9 teams...


Zimbabwe does not figure in top 10...

Zimbabwe also Qualifies as host...


2 host + 8 top team+4 qualification teams... i Namibia has to qualify no auto qualification as host....

@Onionman0

I look at quote a bit of his episodes. And as he has said in this last one dont make assumptions on what he's saying say what he says.

Many people don't like him cause he calls it like it is and he tends to go against the grain. Even when I find him to be obnoxious it is mainly cause he feels he is always right and I would either comment on his post and mention much or not. To accuse him of being a fan of Sammy's appointment kinda reflects on what he's being saying instead of talking about facts yoy talk about feelings.

And when I say you here I mean general. I like the fact that he has call in what I realise with his callers is most supporting him so that I dont follow cause I csnt be listening to all one sided commentary. But he does support a lot of what he's saying with facts and I do like what he's doing with building his platform but yes when it comes to self praise he does take the cake, he makes aome here look like cupcakes lol

2 guys put together a fan based WI cricket podcast with regular and often entertaining content and this is the love they get. We don't have to agree with them all the time to appreciate their effort.

Wed, Oct 29, '25 at 8:03 AM

A yardie who doesn't sing y'all tribal songs. Of course you guys don't agree

Wed, Oct 29, '25 at 8:53 AM

@InHindsight

He has the best cricket podcast! Kieran Powell and the white guy a distant second.

Wed, Oct 29, '25 at 8:56 AM

A reasonable and unbiased Yardie. Unlike those on this board!

Wed, Oct 29, '25 at 8:59 AM

@voiceofreason

You're right on both counts - last two posts

Wed, Oct 29, '25 at 9:03 AM

@InHindsight

There's another one from another Yardie with Butcher what's his name again? Pathetic! Always speculating.

Wed, Oct 29, '25 at 9:06 AM

@voiceofreason

. Most of these podcasts are pathetic. Too glaring

@positiveg


Every individual has right to have his own opinion.....but when he quite deliberately says we played qualifiers in 2019 and 2023.... conveniently ignoring.....It was 8-9 position battle....whereas 2027 is 9-10 battle.....


He says removal of Reifer won't make any difference...but conveniently ignores that Reifer is in West Indies management set up since 2019...Has failed in almost all...but still persist with...


He is infact...a supporter of Shallow administration....in disguise.....


His analogy....keep losing since changes didn't work in past.... won't work in future....
