Welch has that old school Rhodies never die attitude about him. The new cherry don’t frighten him one little bit. Nackerville will bat wherever he pleases on the day and has earned that right after investing a million bucks into the system.

Dean's podcast with Antum https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dean-du-plessis

Some Key Points

- Used to play/live with Solomon Mire in Australia who suggested he try to link up with the Rhinos due to a lack of opportunities in Australia.

- Wants to play for Zimbabwe

- He does not know about the process of qualifying to play for Zimbabwe

- If was asked to play for Zimbabwe tomorrow he would say yes.
- His brother will play for the Tuskers this season.

- His father is currently a batting consultant for the Tuskers!

His father, Zubair, has also made a recent cash donation to Rhinos - not that the players will ever see any of it of course.
‘Batting consultant’ wtf. Has he got any cricket coaching experience whatsoever at a professional level?
Fuck me. We are through the looking glass with this family, folks.

No one will listen to me because there is a very good PR strategy behind it all and you are all swallowing it. But return to this post in a few years and see how I warned you all.

Ya there’s a lot more miles in this story yet and it isn’t ending well. Look how the messiah Gazza Ballance panned out.
