Q: Damian Toohey – my best captain.
John Colwell from Dubbo captained our Western Zone team to a NSW Country final in 1994/95.
John was a brave cricketer, backed himself and his players above all else and had the ability to make you feel you could get the job done. He was a smart cricketer and wanted his teams to play aggressive cricket.
He would've loved batting in T20's and that is exactly what he brought to the 50 over game. That season he was incredible with the bat, and we bowled second in all three games, with his bowling changes and field placements working perfectly to get the result we required. Two wins and a loss on the third day but a carnival win on quotient.
Going into the final the Western Zone committee wanted to bring back two players who had made themselves unavailable for the preliminary competition. John stood his ground for an unchanged line up. We lost the final but we did it with the team that got us there. That is representative cricket in the country, Western Zone style!
Great Western cricketer and even better bloke.
