#14 Out of retirement (official)

1 January 2008, 12:42 PM

Nobody seems to have mentioned it here, but Craig Bird has been handed the number 14 Guernsey. Management felt that seeing as he is the first NSW scholarship holder to be promoted to the senior list, that this would be a good mark of a historic new beginning for the number worn by legnedary New South Welshman Paul Kelly (and the immortal Bobby Skilton)
