if there is a 'motion' for the girls to wear shorts,or short skirts, I shall fully support it.


Shanika, I have a serious question for you. Are you fair, tan or dark in colour?

Bonggo,

so the netballers are going to wear the pinky minis?

I am glad to be witnessing history been made-welcome the Sri Lankan Meterointimacyual guy . Took a long time coming too.I mean who would have thought we'd see this in our life time! Three cheers!! And Thank you Hon. selector for making it all happen :-)

Ruwani,

I fail to see the relationship between my voting for shorts/skirts and my skin tone-enlighten me, please, if you may.

but since you've asked me a 'serious' question, I have no choice but to give you a 'serious' reply. I don't know how you define fair, tanned, etc. But I think I'll pass for fair-or thereabouts.

Ruwani,

Thanks for the acknowledgement. About ths skirts and wicket keeping.

My experience is that girls have deceptive attire. Why don't you tell your husband about the SWEET LITTLE PAIR OF SHORTS BEHIND THE SKIRT.

One of my friends who played netball for the SL team was wearing this when she sat with her legs crossed like for meditation. 25 years ago, though. You girls make us conjure what is behind the skirt. I would tell Suresh that you all can keep wickets and do more than that.

Boys can't be fooled any more.

Captain cool,

We have to be creative and always try out new things. Just because we do ont have enough girls, it does not mean we cannot form a netball team. see what I mean.

Believe me, if the Ashram tem played a game, you will witness one of the largest crowds ever at a netball match, to see the men in pink dress and skimpy underwear!

But the guys who taled much about their positions in the cricket team did not express such sentiments about their respective positions in the netball team. Instead they keep on talking about ladies'lingerie.

Cut it off guys.

Guru, the whole problem is the whole problem!

P.S.
I can also see some chemistry between the captain and a member of the royal family :)

I am practicing everyday to defend against goal shooting!!

I can?t wait to hold the opposing team against shooting even if it means physical contact.

Hopefully, the opposing teams will be all females unlike us.

Yes Bonggo, I too think we will have a full house for the netball tournemnt. SHould we sell some tickets so we can hire a private eye to investigate what happened to Lula and Vimukthi?

about the point you raised- the men's preoccupation with ladies' lingerie and why they are not talking about their own positions in the netball team-well, apart from the general interst men have with anything to do with ladies and what they wear, I think the main reason here is that the guys don't know that much about netball. I am sorry I can't help you either-never played the game-but maybe skipper Kamani can give a tutorial session about Netball to the guys?

There cannot be any chemstry between a plebian (i.e penny pinching middle class but wanna be rich) and someone in the royal family. It's useless. Anyway, if I am not mistaken, there's already a Princess in the picture, which makes it dangerous too..... :-)))

AND KULA, keep up the good work!.

And Guys and Gals, the talk of 'Princess' reminded me that I should share the following story with everyone here.... :-))

BTW, Prince, believe me, But no irony intended-, the use of your name is coincidental !

This is the fairy tale that should have been read to us all Once upon a
time,

In a land far away,

a beautiful, independent,

self-assured princess

happened upon a frog as she sat,

contemplating ecological issues

on the shores of an unpolluted pond

in a verdant meadow near her castle.

The frog hopped into the princess' lap

and said: ' Elegant Lady,

I was once a handsome prince,

until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.

One kiss from you, however,

and I will turn back

into the dapper, young prince that I am

and then, my sweet, we can marry

and set up housekeeping in your castle

with my mother,

where you can prepare my meals,

clean my clothes, bear my children,

and forever

feel grateful and happy doing so.'


That night,

as the princess dined sumptuously

on lightly sautéed frog legs

seasoned in a white wine

and onion cream sauce,

she chuckled and thought to herself:

I don't f***ing think so.
