Years ago I watched Australian tourists play against Oxford University at 'The Parks' ground, my overiding memory is Merv chasing and trying to catch a dog on the outfield........the crowd was cheering every time he nearly caught it. Hilarious!
So glad as a Pommie Sri Lankan (yeah we all got our crosses to bear 😂) I got to watch Merv play both live as well as on tv as a kid back in the day…..sadly we don’t have guys (characters…legends?) like him, Richards, Botham etc etc in the game any more. Thanks for such awesome memories Merv 🙏🙏😎

Merv - great character
Merv was actually a very clever fast bowler with a stock load of varied deliveries in his armoury..
Agreed, its funny when you think about it because on the surface he doesn't look like a man with subtleties but that was how he got a lot of wickets.
And when he was in the mood he could be a good tailend batsman
Big Merv, is my favourite cricketer ever
AND... I met Billy at a few pubs, ass everyone in Geelong did, always a lovely chap, God bless him.
Went to School with James - his nickname was Petal.
Merv could have written that off as community service.
Love That Bradshaw bloke
Which head?
COME ON MERV, GET INTO YOUR CHOPA PARODY, THAT WIL WORK OUT WELL
Gold
Brayshaw loves pumping up his ordinary ability. Biggest flog in Australian media, thinks we're all Victorians
You are so right
Who is the bald guy Mervs talking to?
Being a Beatles nut ..you should know the concept of flog..
