It's never cook in a million years he has been GN all his career

Woakes I reckon(thought this was a big signing?) haha!!

Always associated kook with Ricky pointing myself no other player really...

Softs have  always been good not sure about the bats, Thorpe seemed to suit them

Can't remember his bat someone on here will know in a flash...it wasn't a kahuna, or a beast.....maybe a crown?  :)

Bubble was Thorpe's model for most of his career wasn't it? Look at this for a bat, looks beautiful!


Did find this though, Probe? Awful name for a bat.

This has been asked a couple of times recently, I'd love to know the answer as the bats they put out around then were brilliant! Someone suggested Rob Pack might have been making for Kook around that time, but I have no idea whatsoever how accurate that might be.

Probably Eric Loxton, who made Alec Stewart's bats.

Id say going on the width of his shoulders it is Woakes as TRJ is slender in the shoulders compared to him.
