Title: Hants Players
Post by: Talisman on April 30, 2011, 12:52:28 PM
Do you think there is any way that if you put on an accent and faked a Passport you could persuade Hants to give you a contract being from SA or Zim. I ask as they have 5 players from there is the side today with 2 more to come back into the side and at least 2 more waiting in the wings?

In an age where counties are turning more to home grown talent is the most southerly county secretly extending its border 6000 miles south?

Friedel de Wet,
Sean Ervine,
Neil McKenzie,
Johann Myburgh,
Nic Pothas,

Michael Lumb,
Imran Tahir,

Adam Rouse,
Jamie Miller,

9 players in one squad.....

I have a South African grand parent, do you think that would be good enough?

Seriously though, it is a shame if the southern hemisphere guys prevent a young home grown player from making it through in the first team.

I know / played against one of the lads who has a Development Contract this year, hopefully he won't be held back.
