He seems pretty positive. He'd be a wonderful contributor.

Considering 3MOB are meant to be a premier media organisation, they are quite shit house. The audio quality kept changing throughout that interview. There was way too much background noise. The questions asked are also very basic.
3MoB media certainly isnt a premier media organisation by a long shot. Larry is just hoping on for the ride on the gravy train like everyone else.

Larry interviews from scripts. No questions are ever the real ones fans want to hear.

He's going to have to start making 100's and taking fifers or he's negotiating his fat contract downwards rapidly.

The usual culprits are about to start on our league being strong after all, unless he knocks it out the park pretty soon.

It's not completely shit, half a dozen decent guys in every team, but then it drops off.

Yes, County ain’t great. There has been some truly average players for England over the years and if this guy has never had a look in I don’t think he’s head and shoulders above our guys. Above yes, but not by much.
This is why I want Cartwright. He’s a mainstay for WA and by that fact alone he WILL be an asset. Not one county team would hold a candle to the 6 Sheffield shield sides. County is more on par with Sydney grade firsts.
Exactly this. Mitchell Marsh isn't even the best Western Australian allrounder and has been a mainstay of the test team for years.
Well he was for a good decade, then came along cam green who’s the best bat out of wa and top 4 Bowlers in the state on his day as well. the last two summers Hardie has been unable to bowl and he’s probably good enough to play as a specialist bat but they like marsh for his fast scoring. Only last summer marsh won the Allan border medal for Australia’s best cricketer. Yes his number for his career aren’t great, but last winter ( ashes ) and then our home summer he was australias best bat if you look at numbers, while Playing on juiced up decks. Marsh has all the talent in the world and was a prodigy since he was little ( he scored 300 against me In a school cricket one day match ) a state record. Also his last name is Australian cricket royalty. To say he’s not the best allrounder now in wa is correct, for a good decade he was. Stoinis is garbage and could of had a test career but chose money, green will be the best test player in the world in 3 years, Hardie has all tools but I would still back marsh in terms of batting.
Indian and English cricket is a cult and bazball is delusional and embarrassing. Bumrah chucks it, Cummins has a shocking seam position, stokes is a fraud. Bangladesh shouldn’t have test status, Bradman was a coat.Marco Jansen is good, zim will rise !

Yep I live in WA and it’s been one of the most successful eras in Australian domestic cricket. Hat trick of shield winners, hat trick of one day comp, and the scorchers are the most successful bbl franchise in aus. Some serious young talent coming through as well, Marley Beardman who played for Aus under 19s and dominated India, took 3 wickets in the bbl last night. He bowls 145 plus, long blonde hair, skinny surfer rat, will be playing for Aus in 2 years as he’s already been on tour with odi squad. Serious bowler. Jayden Goodwin is scoring shield tons and is a very very good player, cooper Connolly will get a baggy green in Sri Lanka, and I believe one day will captain Australia. Our depth at the moment in WA is crazy.
