[QUOTE="DallyM, post: 413837, member: 52255"] is all the non-english getting picked really negative as it is being portrayed? in cricket, the poms have borrowed heavily from other countries. do the likes of Trott, KP and Strauss play with any less passion and determination than their proper English counterparts? Trott has one of the best averages for test cricket, hardly fitting of someone who is not playing with pride in the country. Would Pieterson have scored that remarkable century in the Oval test in '05 to win the Ashes if he was not passionate about england. would Strauss have been able to lead his team to back to back Ashes triumphs if he didn't care about England? Other sports such as cricket have shown that the colonials perform just as well (and sometimes better) as the fullblooded poms, so start looking forward to their contributions to the English RWC 2011 campaign [/QUOTE]
