I recently purchased the GN1000 from Vitas and it's huge, pockets everywhere. Plenty of room for pads, thigh pads x2, gloves x2 helmet in the main compartment then there's separate ones for spikes and clothes at the top and bottom. Then 3 good sized side pockets on the outer. Would reccomend it!

I bought one 6 months ago and raved about it here at the time

However now the season's here I've got to admit I find it a little small for all my match gear. It all fits (just) but I have to be very organised, especially wish the side pockets were bigger for clothing. And one of the zip pulls has broken  :( Not sure whether the Ton would have been better but had I known about the Kookaburra Pro Players Duffle at the time I'd have spent a little more on that. They're very nice indeed, and very big.

The ton is a good size but is let down by not having a small pocket for keys etc. Some people have complained that the bat pockets are too small. I don't have a problem with them though. I quite like it overall.

Get the Red Ink Duffle instead!

2 padded bat pockets, boot tunnel, large main opening and 2 large side pockets. Also has an internal mesh for key, wallets etc  and smaller items.  Definitely worth a look

This has a lot of similarities to the TON duffle, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Woodworm-Cricket-PRO-Duffle-Holdall/dp/B00LM0GSD0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1432468448&sr=8-2&keywords=woodworm+duffle+bag

Might get this as well, if anyone has this bag, can anyone give me an insight into this?

I bought the GN about a year ago and after very little use the stitching tore between the main section zip and one end pocket. Probably too much weight in the end pocket (sack of old balls) and me being clumsy.

Something to bear in mind however.

I asked John for them and he emailed them over.

I'm sure he won't mind if I email them to you. If you want to pm me your address

Go for it mate. I haven't had chance to upload them on here but will be doing a new topic in the next few days hopefully showcasing the bags and maybe a few forum offers

Don't Get a TON Duffle. I have had it for 3 months now. Bought it from pro direct. Already tore the bottom part of the front pocket.
