"Cardiff-born batter Tom Bevan has also signed a two-year contract."

Jamie McIlroy is a suprise with a 2 year contract, would be a worry if they are looking for him to be a permanent fixture next season.
Yes agreed, it’s handy having a leftie in the team for the shorter format stuff but I don’t think he’s got the pace to worry batsman in the championship. Given the players released we need to sign probably 3 bowlers I reckon. Let’s hope they are quality because we’ll struggle without hoges

Wouldn't normally applaud giving a 37 year old Ingram a two year deal, especially given his reluctance to favour the red ball game these past few years, but the cupboard seems to be a little bare so far for next season.
Harry Podmore is apparently coming in to shore up the bowling attack, a decent enough signing...

Hogan's contract had finished and he was retiring and flying home to Australia to be with his family. 🤔

Money talks!!

He's been great for Glamorgan - good luck to him.

Or he wanted to keep the Kent move quiet until after his benefit season had finished... (just over a 100k) 🤔
 
In fairness to Hogan he was heavily wanted by Surrey a few seasons ago playing in Div 1, he stayed with us.
I have respect for him.

Aye fair enough Dicky, he's been a great servant, but was watching the last day of the Sussex match and the Glamorgan commentator said it was the last session for Michael Hogan's first class career when the Sussex commentator chipped in "well for Glamorgan anyway"
Thought that a bit of a strange thing to say at the time...
