John, after due consideration, says Dennis you'll be opening on Saturday. You beauty, I think. I can't sleep I'm that excited. Turn up at Jensen Park all decked out ready to plunder the hapless Bankstown attack.

But there's a problem. A big problem. A massive problem. The opening bowlers for Bankstown are Jeffrey Robert Thomson and Len Pascoe nee Durtanovich. All of 15 years old and all fired up. No bouncer rules, no helmets, wafer thin thigh guard and pads that you may as well had the SMH wrapped around your legs.
