Have signed another Saffer.

Which I’m sure will surprise absolutely no fucker.

Aiden Markram (sic), hopefully he’s as good for them as he was for us......
 

Mercenaries with no strong commitment to the team they play for. A recipe for disaster.
 
Don't forget we could have 4 Aussies and 3 Saffers playing in the same side for us this season.
It's gone a bit under the radar but Durham have been signing a lot of overseas players and quite a few as adopted Pimm's.

This has done so far under the radar can you educate me as to whom? I’ve probably just not been paying attention
 
Bancroft, Short, Cameron Steel, Harte, Richardson, Stokes, Carse, Rimmington all born outside of the UK. Only Rimmo who would be a non-overseas 'Kolpak' type player though. The rest were either here as kids or we'd never heard of them and are considered adopted Durham lads.

Yes, but Steel,Harte, Richrdson, Stokes and Carse were unproven youngsters when they came and developed their careers at Durham which is an entirely different situation to signing established kolpaks. It shows we have a worldwide scouting system

I don't count Stokes he played his schools cricket in England.

Me neither but the point stands. Durham aren't a good example at present. Obviously we need more locals but with we find any?

Who has come through recently to be a 'regular if fit' player … only Weighell that I can think of.

Maybe Burnham and Potts with the potential. Pringle hasn't take his chance so far and I can't work out what kind of player Trevaskis is supposed to be.
