What an absolutely superb day the finals turned out to be even though the weather tried its best to spoil it, a very very big well done to Hampshire they truly deserved it. I'm a big fan of Dominic Cork so I'm even more pleased Hampshire went on to win this, I'm also very pleased Essex went out early £10k for one game what a joke but justice was done.

Well done Dom and Hampshire !

I don't care about next season paying a player £10k for one game is a joke and hardly what i class as in the spirit of the game.

£10k for one game? That's chicken feed compared to IPL!!
I wonder if this is the way the game is going!?  :(

I think that Essex should have paid him in accordance to his performance, i.e. If he hits a quickfire/match winning 30 or 40 and bowls tightly then he would have earned his 10k.....
 
but if he performs like he did yesterday, maybe 2 or 3k???

this way he would have also been motivated to do well as there would be an extrinsic reward :D

Not seen Bravo's contract but having dealt with a number of players contracts I'd be suprised if there wasn't a bonus structure of payments in there.

I suppose I am being slighty bias to essex ;)  , but he did look quite good batting and was unlucky with the run out, yes he bowled rubbish but essex should of had a plan b and bowled flower although IF tendo was fit what a different semi final result that would of been. Just got to focus on staying in div 1. Also how great are the essex fans, last night the hampshire announcer said can the fans show there noise etc, and all of us got up and starting shouting essex,essex and outsung all notts,somerset, and hampshire fans. Up the eagles!

I must say how impressed i was with cork after the bouncer to pollard, firstly a great ball that totally decieved Pollard, but then the sportsmanship shown towards Pollard and it was visible just how upset Cork was that he had injured Pollard (even though it was within the rules!) And also to ask the batsmen going off at the end of the innings to check he was ok shows extreme sportmanship which with alot of money coming into the game could well be few and far between.

in my opinion, that last over in the first innings was when the match was won or lost,
im just saying that had the ball not managed to penetrate the helmet, Pollard would have propelled the score to 180-odd.
I was a bit ~@??>; off at the time, I knew Cork handled the situation well, but we all know that Pollard was in good nick at the time.

I hope he gets better quickly, and that next year Somerset go one better than they have for the last two years.

Sky Sports is always trying to rub in the fact that Somerset lost.
I bet it's on for the next week or so.

OMG, the gits at Sky did the same last year as well, and who lost the final......Somerset! Coincidence? I think not!  :(
And they replayed it several times! And yet they never used to replay the T20 final 10 or 20 years ago  ;) ....so they obviously have it in for Somerset! I bet if Somerset win it next year, they only replay it 6 times instead of the 7 times they replay this year! We should all boycott Sky!!
