The first two games we got annihilated however other games we lost we were in excellent positions only to destruct. Dixon has been shocking however we have such a poor team even Latham has been woeful

Latham has been an absolute puppet in my opinion, gimmick saying he's captain when its clear as day who is running and dictating things. Today and Friday his dismissals were very poor. All very frustrating.
 
Drop Poynter and play Richardson as wicketkeeper?

I honestly think the players need to practice more and not spend their time on social media playing golf. Poynter is a good player - but he’s losing his way. He needs practice and coaching.
 
Who were the mugs that backed Dixon? Forgot I was one. He wasn't impressive today, to say the least. Think he went for 88 runs? Anyway, no idea why he bowled the last over. Assumed it would be Rushworth/Wood who would bowl the death overs. That last over sort of summed him up think it went: 6, 6, 6, 4, w. The wicket being the top scalp of Mullaney. Pity about all of the runs conceded. This game pretty much sums up Durham for me at the moment in all formats. Can win/lose from any position. Probably short of 3 really class performers to be consistent. Not surprising given the exodus over the past 2 years.

Forgot. First ball of the day, Wood to Wessels. Looked quite quick. Clean bowled, 2 stumps smashed straight out the their ground, only 1 left standing. Brilliant.

Few things that cost us in that game;

Dixon's first and last overs. 17 in the first, and 18 from 4 balls in the last. Other than that he didn't bowl too badly. (think there was another bad over in between too.
Latham was out to a lazy shot
Richardson out to a poor shot

Should have been chasing little more than 200 in that game, and still chasing 255 we should have got closer than we did.

Mind, Richardson's catch was worth the entrance fee alone!
