Been a while since i had it up that far and wouldn't do it now, the nutters i play with would aim at my bonce and at 35 I'm not sure id be quick enough to get out of the way, and 99 is very very very quick.

That guys a nutter Craig.  Never even got it up that far, what's there to gain when you can't see the thing?  And in danger of losing ones privates.

Hit4Six does the guy know you posted that on FB? :D

Yeah he was the one who asked me to post it on facebook. Yeah a total nutter, he was our Aussie overseas player. Although our West Indian overseas player this year was playing 90mph bouncers with ease! Scary to watch him to be honest.
