As alluded to in the Glamorgan match thread, the need for a loanee seam bowler is well and truly growing.
Rushworth, Weighell, P Coughlin, McCarthy and Chase seem to be our only fit options.
J Coughlin might be nearing the first team, he probably has fair reason to be aggrieved if he doesn't get his chance before a loan player.
Is there anyone in local cricket who could be worth a look?
Or is it now the time to seek help from the counties?? Just who exactly could we get? I don't see an abundance of quality seamers in the game now as it is in all honesty. Certainly the better ones are all playing for their parent county side.
Last season for example Luke Fletcher was having to travel to get a game but he appears to be more in favour now at Notts.
In normal circumstances I'd think perhaps Yorkshire would play ball, their record of having a battery of seamers would suit them loaning one out and of course they'd surely be open to allowing a player to bowl in 'Northern' conditions to further their cricketing education. However it seems they have the same bowler injury problems as we do.
