° From Jimmy Thomas
I think this has all gone to your head after one good innings at the smallest ground in the country. Will we have to wait ten years for another good innings?

° Graham replies:
Thanks for your scepticism. I hope it ’s less than 10 years and that my next innings will convert you into a supporter.

surprised he bothered to answer to be fair

lol i think he has been overrated massively after that innings. Hes being around for a long time without doing all that much, IPL contract on way and Ian Botham keeps mentioning him for England!

I'm an Essex fan but I think that Mascharanus should be in an England side before Napier.

tbh, i'm a fan of his bowling. hits high 80's and pushes up to 90. his batting is a bonus tbh, the innings of 158 showed his potential. i don't think it really helps his batting that he plays at essex, purely due to they bat all the way down. hence his oppornities are limited. send him to lancs to beaf up our lower order! lol
 put it this way, if he was 6 inches taller, fletcher would have been all over him like a rash!

For me the guy is a good allround athlete and has potential but yes people have been hyping him a bit much
