I'll be meeting up with him, and when I don't have a game or when I inevitably get injured I'll go and watch him play.

Eug, he wants to, with all his heart. I've spoken for hours with him and he's an absolute crackin' bloke. His main concern is the waiting around until his chance comes, as it's not economically sustainable. He's a bright man and had university options and job options but he wants to play for the Eagles with all his heart; he says that Timoni doesn't have a clue and picks the same fuck ups week in week out.

He wants to play for Zimbabwe, but he knows it won't happen because of the racist, thieving, incompetent twats running ZC.

I feel for Diplock but he cant judge a coach who won all three trophies on offer domestically this year. He must man up and not sulk and get on with the JOB at hand and thats being the best all-rounder in Zimbabwe. Dipaz has to know that he is playing in the largest provincial setup with the biggest pool of players where they are 100 players that can be chosen from as opposed to the Mountaineers or Rhinos who have a player pool of between 30 and 40 players. If he feels he is being racially targeted in my opinion he may need to head to the Rhinos or Tuskers. The truth of the matter is he may love the Eagles but he needs to fight for on the club scene he has bowled reasonably well but has not batted to his full potential he can be destructive and its unfortunate that he is part of a very disfunctional OH side that has been rocked by infighting and sabbotage from the cash rich Alex side.

Fair enough.
The travelling is the problem, as is the case for most young blokes in Zim.
He's got a good UK summer deal this year and it turns out he's playing in the same cup as me.
Be funny if i got him out :lol:

The same set of seamers who delivered all available silverware to the Eagles this season?
