    ANYWAY THIS YEAR OFF TO THE BEACHFEST I GO! I DON’T THINK I WILL EVEN LOOK AT IT ON TV OR LISTEN TO IT ON THE RADIO. THE QUAILTY OF COMMENTATING HAS GONE BACKWARD,(IE. UM UM UM UM OR AH AH AH AH) THIS NOT GOOD TO THE LISTENING EAR) ALL COMMENTATORS SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE SOME SORT OF PUBLIC SPEAKING TRAINING AND NOT JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE PLAYED SOME CRICKET IN THE PAST! TIME TO GET OF THE STAGE AND GET IN SPEECH CLASSES.

    • Taurean Manders says:

      Jekon Edness! Tre Manders! Greg Maybury! ….. And not our fault it’s just in the family, let it go mate! Lol

  4. welldone says:

    I thought Janeiro had retired??

  5. Rockfish#2 says:

    @ TIDBIT I have no comment on the teams.

    However, I agree, the commentators (some) are dreadful. Surely they can seek assistance from a good school teacher as soon as they sign up for the job.

  6. TIDBIT says:

    Rockfish#2, strangely enough, a few of these commentators are current or past school teachers! They are the biggest culprits!

  7. cip match says:

    somerset is bias meerrccyy, i agree jekon shouldnt be captain and even playin cup match im glad derrick back in his good , to bad for treddy next year his going have to make space for orande , sad but the truth orande needs alot of work

    • Taurean Manders says:

  8. cup match says:

    mally should be captain

  9. k says:

    obviously selection in somerset is not based on the years performance !! jordan desilva left out again !!! i guess one needs a history of cup match playing family to make the team !!!

    • Eye4Eye says:

      Totally agree with you on this one

    • Taurean Manders says:

      Don’t be mad because it’s just in the family mate…. Jekon Edness! Tre Manders! I dnt hear you now do I??????

  10. shut up says:

    Stop complaining!

  11. Stumped says:

    Somerset have a very good team on paper a few young ones but lots of years and i like the look of them if not for now for years to come. St geo has a very positive team of players they may give you a chance but if you dont take it they will murder you with lots of runs, AS for the comentators I enjoyes the fresh Tv last year the most.

  12. stunned says:

    Why the heck OJ aint playing??!!

  13. Reality says:

    Been a somerset supporter all my life but this year is going to be a change… Somerset is bein dopey.. especially for not picking Jordan Desilva for a 2nd year…These older guys need to go and stop pickin family n pick guys for their performance

    • Taurean Manders says:

      Lol I dnt heat you now do I???? Again and again I say, don’t hate cuz we just har it in the family! We don’t want fake fans in somerset, see you later…. Kon and tre!!!!! Simple!

  14. bermy$hotta says:

    BLUE N BLUE ALL DAY!!

  15. WOW says:

    I dont even care about Cup Match anymore!!!!

    • Judgement says:

      Don’t care? Is this before or after you took the time to look at this post and comment?

  16. Bda sinkin ship says:

    jacobi robinson trashhhhhhhh pure favoritism better off with one of those reserves!! (Must be cuz his house is right there on da hill) lol! Thats why cricket in bermy will never get better cuz of that word FAVORITISM!

  17. Nuffin but de Truth! says:

    Somerset,ya wasting ya time even coming out to play,ya might as well give up now,
    St G gonna kick ya @$$!

    • Taurean Manders says:

      Well that doesn’t look like truth there. Might need to change the position of those teams

  18. Whodat says:

    Both clubs need to stop showing favouritism on whose who! Players need to be picked for their performances from the time the cricket season begins not just for the trial performances! St George’s has a colt who comes home from UK and makes the Cup Match team as as reserve, last year and again this year mmm!(whose who??). Why can’t another young cricketer be given the opportunity to be a reserve? Oh, I know why, you have to in the clique:( (sad but true!). May the best team win and we know that will be ST GEORGE’S BOYS FOREVER!!!

  19. JustCricket says:

    Anyone would think this is World Cup Cricket.

    Who cares who wins, loses or draws!

    Whatever happened to good sportsmanship and comradery?

    Let’s enjoy the two day holiday and have fun!

    • CupMatchTimeInBermuda!! says:

      LOL!! Cup Match should and will always be extremely competitive. That’s part of the fun that leads up to the match and during the match. I do agree with sportsmanship and camaraderie though.

  20. Honestly says:

    St. George’s……… All the way! Don’t care about the drama!

  21. Taurean Manders says:

    LOL people make me laugh. If you going to criticize, be a man or a woman and put a name. I am not scared or hiding behind any name. My name up here and who every reads knows who I am. Everybody has opinions. Do I have questions bout the squad sometimes? Of course! But you will see me in my colors supporting anyway, cuz you never know what could happen or who could surprise you. I’m confident with the team I see. I’m not doubting other players may deserve to be playing too. But it’s just decisions that not just one person makes. It’s a whole board of selectors and a captain. Nobody goes into the game just picking favorites when you want to win. Both teams at the end of the day want to win. So why would they put a team out there just cuz his a family member or a friend. Be real. When you are having just having a pick up game you pick ppl who you think givinng you best chance to win. Not everybody can play. Not worried bout friends lol. If you want to jump ship then somerset, or st geo, then check you later fake fans.

    Yes Edness is the first cousin of Manders. but that really doesn’t matter cuz being the third most run-getter on the island this season I think borders the line of somebody getting picked based on performances right? I dnt know much of Greg maybury but he obviously has something cuz there’s other ppl on the selectors board other than the maybury! And from what I have heard from supporters on both teams he is good, so I hope the youngster can show me something. Was this coming out when the Smiths, Foggos or Bascomes were playing? And if experience and best wicketkeeping on the island isn’t bringing something to cup match then might have to call up Mark Boucher and tell him he should have never played for one of the best teams in the world.

    Just one more thing, i am pretty sure that nobody on somerset other that janeiro is over 30, so if we calling 29 and 30 old guys in this game then I think, at 26, I should retire from football in a year or so cuz I guess I won’t be able to when I hit 30.
