Gibson
Steve Harmison
Simon Brown
Graham Onions


Any other takers.....
 


Where's Boiling? :)

I'd probably sub Lewis for Larkins, for weight of runs
 
doesnt look much better than ours now ;)

obviously larkins an upgrade on smith/stoneman/muchall or whoever will play

boon great player but who knows how good ben stokes will be, hes certainly been fantastic for us since day one in/around the team

gibson ahead of borthwick again we cant say how good scotty will be, by the numbers he's been fantastic this year with bat and ball. gibson an absolute legend will always be one of our best ever bowlers, totally different to compare to borthwick obv.

brown ahead of thorp/plunkett/brathwaite/davies again fair enough but all those options are steady.

glorious times

this :lol::cool:
 
i reckon theres a good chance that our current line up would beat our all time lineup [-minus current players]

7 of that best ever are current players!
 
Pity it's only one overseas player, I'd have had Hussey in for Larkins otherwise.

Think he had a lot to do with changing the mentality of the club following on from Boon.

Should probably be in there anyway
 
hussey definite class act but id feel wrong picking him ahead of any of them lot due to the length of service. boon and gibson are borderline anarl but sneak in due to legendary ness.
:lol:
 
Hussey should be first name on that team sheet. Even if he was only here for one season he was absolute class and was the main catalyst in our propulsion to the top division.
 
Di Venuto
Hussey
Collingwood
Benkenstein
Stokes
Blackwell
Mustard
Plunkett
Harmison
Gibson
Onions

Benkenstein captain, Mustard keeper, Hussey overseas (does Gibson have to be overseas?)

Plunkett in as he can bat at eight (Borthwick might overtake in time)

Honourable mentions for Jon Lewis, Martin Love, David Boon and Simon Brown who all played their part in Durhams rise.
