• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

I see Lloyd is listed as a middle-order batsman, so it does seem strange that Glamorgan keep picking him as an opener. As you say, why not give Bevan more experience?

Spot on! Even more bizarre is Lloyd opening the batting today ahead of India opening Test batsman Shubman Gill, who came in after his dismissal :lol:

Fvcking incredible thinking in such an important match.

Exactly the same with Durham away.

Needing 196 runs to win, Maynard decides to open with a No 9 and No 10 batsmen - Salter and Gorvin. ( Lloyd was injured)

Durham hadn't taken 20 wickets in a match until they played us. Tremendous bowling from Potts, but we certainly didn't help in persisting in using Salter as an opening bat, and then promoting Gorvin up the batting order.

Gorvin had been batting No 9/10 for the 2nd X1.

It's shocking really, it seems Glamorgan are determined to push players, even when hopelessly out of form, or even just not good enough, just because they are Welsh...
 
The massive news is that as said earlier Labuschagne has signed for another 2 years.

It's like owning a Lamborghini on a beans on toast lifestyle, our batting looks rosey, our bowling less so...
