Just shows you have no idea about rep cricket thus no point in talking to you regarding it. It didn't get a laugh the first time.
The gulf between rep averages really isn't that great: Jemmell: 44.47 Vago: 42.92 Manera: 42.59 Downpipes: 43.87 Hornby: 40.42 McGrath: 52.74 McGrath will obv come in. Dropping Jemmell wouldn't be that preposterous given that he has had a poor PC.
Which was exactly my point. If Gemmell fails, he should be dropped. He's not untouchable like he thinks.
I did not know that. Hornby plays in R1 because McGrath is injured. McGrath has a PC average >50 so is effectively guaranteed a spot. Its just who he comes in for when he returns.
His First Class debut was before that, for GB Academy against NSW Academy mid-season. But it's based on BS debuts; not FC debuts.
