    Cricket Board Name Change

    As you may or may not have noticed, the cricket board on WOOF has had a name change to honour the legacy of the recently fallen Phil Hughes. The board is no longer the Merv Hughes Swerve, and is instead now titled the Phil Hughes Memorial Board.

    Phil's tragic and untimely death has rocked the cricket world and the moderating team felt it was a fitting way to honour an incredibly talented and much loved young man.

    Phil shall remain Forever 63 Not Out

        Poignant reminder that the odd bit of narky on here is wasted time. I'm glad we've put our bat out for Phil.

            Great tribute and a lovely idea Mods,

                Nice tribute to Phil. It's been nearly 2 months since he passed away. Will be missed.
