Try taping half of a tennis ball and seeing how much swing you get.The whole ball. 3 layers of duck tape.....my Dad got pissed off when he saw the roll nearly finished in his workshop....
You've got to put tape all around, but put extra on 1 side. then the person batting cant see which way the ball will go.Try taping half of a tennis ball and seeing how much swing you get.
Back in rhe late 80's fresh back in Australia I got involved in a pretty serious indoor cricket competition.
Being in 1st division we'd get the balls new. The lesser grades got them used.
The new balls would swing prolifically. Some of them had very high seams, so you could get it swinging either way very easily, just with seam angle.
We had half the Carlton district cricket team playing for us, plus one of the aussie fast bowlers fresh back from the South African rebel tour.
Was a lot of fun, but with game times as late as half 10 start at night, it was hard to be doing that and backing up for work in the city when you had to be on a train by half 6 or 7am.
When we played down the local court, we had a metal fire hydrant for stumps, a buffalo sports bat.....and a half taped tennis ball with electrical tape.
Only thing these arse clown muppets could organise is a circle jerk
Knowing these pricks
They will send us to Gc in round 1, then Carlton on the Thursday night and then Collingwood., then Adelaide in Adelaide
They will push to have our season finished by round 6.
Ah,but any plot has its flaws.Imagine then if we were 6 wins-zero losses??????????????Yea I know playing round 7 in Antarctica,followed by a game in the Sudan two days later,and then the AFL imposing a ban on rotations for the Tigers ,as well as any further games to be played at Marvel stadium just might take the gloss off it............
