I would like to point out that whilst I've nailed down the #7, I don't keep. I know, how un-Australian of me.

I always thought 7 was the key spot.

Enough partners left to have a decent knock, and if you come in at 5/25 and get a score you look like a hero, whilst if you fail it’s the top 6s fault.

well I'm normally the one who starts the rot

That's good news for everyone batting at 2 and onward!

On this basis I think I'm well qualified to join you opening the innings. For my club I have the high distinction of being dismissed on the first ball of the match... twice.. in back-to-back matches....

This was about 5 season ago and the scars still run deep.

Team starting to take shape, need a few more with big levers, west Australians or those that can hit them well in the nets.
I’m a champion in the nets, count me in @ 5.

Just need a 6 and a 9, a Zimbabwean or South African or a pom could be handy.

I can cover the pom angle and slog sweep at 6. My pop is a pom so I'm a dual citizen. I was a middle order all rounder for my local team a decade ago. I am now past it but I'm a nice guy.
If it helps I can deliberately run the number 11 out for our team.

I’m happy to bat at 9 and not bowl. Only if full strength tinnies are available though. None of this XXXX shit.

If I win the toss we'll bat, everyone is expected to score at 10 runs an over otherwise you'll be covered in a horseblanket and pelted with onions.
