Hello Lou, remember me? How much has happened, where are you at? What's the next step? I've stopped. I've got nothing to do for the next seven days till rehab starts...seven days off...well, you could call me a blind sparrow, unlucky...or bang bang!! Lucky Lou...one of the many names which came out during the knocking test series v England some see it as an afternoon tea party, 'yes sir', 'marvellous sir', 'my boys do battle against your boys, extraordinary.' Some see it as bystander entertainment while indulging yeast and "hot dogs", "get your hot dogs", coming together to watch their boys do battle against the other boys, get pissed and sing out loud at a fall of a wicket, get stuck into the opposition fine leg fieldsman as he over runs one, slipping, fumbling, holding the cool face nah. Cracks into a cheeky whoopsy-daisy grin of embarrassment...hands on hips. "C'mon Rigga" "I am", a faint reply from the boundary line, definitely heard amongst the roar of the cruel crowd. Never talk back! Head down and smash 'em! My motto; focus on the work and the rewards will come head down, or in Rigga (Mark Richardson)'s case, hand loose bro! I see the game as a war, a battle of ball and bat that's all. The skill you learn deflecting, hitting the ball to protect the castle and body (not me though, ahhh baddick caddick) while accumulating gallops past the advantage line to get a run the craft of techsmanship seeing the ball run far away, "save ya legs mate". IT's personal too
Dean Jones taught us that. "It comes down
to pretty much a one on one battle. Both wanting to win , both seeking
to wreck each other's career
take him on, don't give a sniff, believe
that you can win and you will.". You make the same mistakes in the
game, but you get better by understanding them and you get a little better
each time it happens, till you're a master in the zone of destruction.
