I think Boucher is just not going to budge personally...

i guess there's no history...but i agree he should make either team as wkt-keeper/batsman.

he's playing for namibia right now...he's headed for a world of multiple personalities

Johnson SA Born, A Flower but not GW Flower was South African born, Elworthy born in Rhodesia, and of course big Adrian Garvey was a Rhodesian as well! Hang on, I might get in trouble for using that word. But they were born in Rhodesia as it was called.

Zimbabwe had a decent rugby side not long ago. Last I saw they lost to Cote D'Ivoire or something!!!

"rhodie" has too many conotations.

to most it indicates a persons politics

but to me it was the boxer-shorts, velt-schoon and vest wearing lads - they could be a laugh. i have no good memories of garvey

True, a Rhodie does indicate somebody's politics. A lot of white people (dont know if you're the same BL) regard themselves as Rhodesians still.

There would be at least 10 times the amount of white zimbabweans (rhodesians if you will) abroad than there is at home. What are the numbers at the moment BL?

On Taibu- he's playing for Namibia as a domestic team, i.e Scotland in the Sunday League.
