January part 2 - Familiar Faces

There have been a few familiar faces gracing our TV sets over the past few weeks.

Perhaps less obvious to many of us, two former ACT players have fulfilled 12th man duties at two separate ODI’s this summer. Some of you may have noticed former Tuggeranong and Weston Creek batsman Ashton May loitering around the Aussie side on the field after their victory in Hobart.
And for those of you who watched last nights game at the Gabba, you may have noticed that when Shaun Marsh did not take the field for the Aussies in their fielding innings, he was replaced by Tuggeranong’s most famous redhead, Jason Floros. Jason fielded the entire innings in last nights victory, in Shaun Tait’s shirt. Add to that, both Tom Thornton and Sammy Miller appearing in the PM’s XI against the poms, and ACT cricketers have had a productive January on the national and international scene.

From all at Wests, we wish Nathan, Ryan and all those former Canberrans all the best in their endeavours into state cricket. Who knows, we may see many of our former team mates and opponents gracing our TV’s for many years to come.
