Ollie Robinson Signs


I should be more pleased with this than I am considering his age and profile, cant complain at all, guess I'd just want to back Tom Mac and I also really really rate Benjamin
 
Presume they prefer Jordan Cox as Billings is always in and around the England team.

Decent signing but I was happy with Eckersley, even if a bit radge.

Don't think Benjamin was going to happen. Any chance we see Robinson more as a replacement for Dickson than Mackintosh?

Yeah I know just a pipe dream just I know he wants regular red ball cricket and does not want to be pigeon holed into the franchise stuff, snd he ain’t getting games

Yeah possibly, I just said on another thread maybe in white ball stuff he will just be a batsman, he did hit 200 for kent

Tom mac has to get some first team cricket next year

He did well initially but he was fading fast and no surprise he is going outside cricket now

Robinson a much higher ceiling, England under 19 player

No - he has left Kent for the opportunity to keep wicket. He will be WK in all formats next year. Take a quick glance at Kent players comments on social media regarding this move, and you'll soon notice this is an outstanding signing.

He was an absolute star this year in my book. He played virtually the entire Championship season with a damaged finger. There was no Plan B at that time. He took 22 CC catches in 8 games this year though it’s true the batting struggled a bit.

I'm not against his signing at all, just wondered if he'd been brought in as a batsman if Kent would only play him as wk and he's 3rd on that list

Looking at what Kent supporters are saying he is by far the best keeper but the other two are better batsmen. The modern game i suppose batting first then keeping.

Been that way since Gilchrist came along. Everyone wants a top class keeper who can average 40+. They scarcely exist but it all but ended "specialist" keepers

And in county cricket with a diet of meduim pace and not much standing up to the wicket. I think Jack Russell was the last keeper i watched really having an impact on a game standing up to the stumps in our domestic game
