no way back in 90s . I was a psychologist and used to assess people who arrived vis safe legal routes many were very frigtened peole coming from ghastly regimes and countries the Brits had colonised or bombed later. The asseesment was quick you stayed or did not. Go back to that.

no doubt stokes is up there. My view is that Keith Miller probably by a long way the greatest Australian all rounder is a far greater player in all areas . He should have been captain of Aus but fell out with Bradman.
