He pretty much single handedly grew the interest in the one day game like no one before him. I used to sit there begging for Marsh or Boon to get out so I could watch Deano bat......Loved him as a player - what a champion.
Condolences to his family - 59 is way too young to go.
"They are spot on. He did more wrong than right. The bounce of the ball goes the other way on Smith try and his own, and his performance would be crucified. They were very lucky bounces on somewhat selfish 3rd tackle plays. He was also at fault for a…"
"Thanks, Bluey. You're onto something. Refs are having a huge say. Most points are off the back of a combination of either errors, penalties or restarts.
Restarts are getting out of hand and so inconsistent it isn't funny anymore. They've doubled…"
"Coryn, well said. After the Panthers strangled the Sharks, I loved what Brian To'o said post-game: “Hard work beats talent.” Hard yakka.

Dean Jones, RIP you champion.
Sad news, and thoughts to the family.
He was a pioneer in the one day game. Probably born 20 years too early with the shift towards short format games now.
Will be remembered for his 200 in India.
Yes, fortunately I do think BE was aiming it at you, at least , I prefer to think that was the case, nothing personal Pops 😉.
I should add, this assumes BE was actually employing any type of thinking at all!
B.E you are a disrespectful piece of shit, with no more right to be on god's clean earth than a weasle. Bet Mummy's real proud of you.
Very sad. Great bstsman. RIP Deano
Shocked a sad loss
Will never forget his 145 against England in a one dayer at the Gabba in 91. Absolutely torched them in the days with tiny bats.
RIP Deano
