Heath Davis
Madman.
True story I hear, but what a madman
Yes I’ve heard some rather odd yarns about him.
I hung out with him for a few nights in Nelson about 92? You've only just reminded me. Good fun cat. Always up for mischief and heaps of energy going from one pub to the next, chasing substances more than birds. Ultra athletic and coordinated. Used to glide along the ground effortlessly and defo was very quick Friendly to everyone and brutally honest about himself- you know one of those guys who tells you incriminating things about themselves without fear of judgement. Was part aboriginal i think he said and had these pale blue eyes which could change exotic into psycho in a blink🙂
Sorry, can't remember any outrageous antics or details but there would have been some. Another sorry that this post is me staring out the fern pub window mumbling to myself while you guys at the table talk cricket😒 -
Davis moved to Brisbane, Australia in 2003 and he is involved with cricket coaching. In 2008, he suffered a workplace accident while driving a forklift. As a result, half of his left foot had to be amputated.[1] He remarked about accident "I didn't want to remember all the no-balls that I bowled through my career. So I decided to do something permanent about it...
Someone who probably needed a lot more wrap around than what coaching offered in those days.

I hope the bangles make some runs. It would be good to see us chasing something decent. Conway and Mitchell could do with a chance to show us what they got.
Yeah, I actually wish we had chosen to bat first. At the moment looks like this is going to be quite a boring game, whereas if we had batted first we would at least get to see one innings of entertainment.
We know what we can expect from our bowlers but have two batsmen and an all rounder on debut so would have been nice to how they will perform ( I would even bat Mitchell at 5 if we were batting first and he was coming in at around the 40 over mark).

@siam what channel is this on in NZ?
Would it be Spark Sport on the Interwebs? Or does this get shown on TB One?
Ah ok thanks. So it's a separate service? Shit.
I just got back into the country so I'm unfamiliar with spark sport.Yeah it's not on any of the free view channels either.

@frye gotta pick up Spark for the cricket. Only another month though so it's not too bad.
spot on. $25 a month, cancel any time
They don't accept non-NZ credit cards unfortunately. Looks like it's half over already anyway!
