Oh dear, I was hoping I wasnt gonna have to do this,I promised I was gonna be good, but shoulda known better the calibre of dipstick we have over here in the West.
So the Flamin ace woulda been embarassed if little Tommy, as he calls him, had beaten him,why would you be embarassed to be beaten by an 11 yr old, who has been bowling for 18mnths, bowls with a 12 pound ball, and has more natural ability than most other kids to come on the scene in recent years.
To put things in perspective, Toms first goal was not to finish last in Shield trials, well lorks a lordy he had to revise his goal because he made the cut, there were around 27 - 28 bowlers / egos at the start so "little Tommy " managed to finish in front of 11 or so bowlers.
Most experienced bowlers having seen or come up against the little fella have said he is going to be a real worry for most bowlers in Australia let alone WA if he stays interested, the scary thing is at the moment he can take bowling or leave it he only bowls for the dancing, god help the rest of you when he decides to take things seriously.
I know , from Toms parents, that when he saw this post his answer was , who the f*&$@ is flaming ace anyway.
Sort of puts things into perspective.
Well done little Tommy coming 16th in Shield trials is brill, and I couldnt have put it better.
P.s: Remember the word, 'respect'!!
