Nickname
How could you forget Ashley's nickname: Rowdy? 81.102.15.200 (talk) 15:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

For that matter, how about the story of Rowdy, Rodney Marsh and unpire Don Bailhache?


 * I don't recall in which game this occurred - or even in which competition! Nevertheless, Mallett was batting and suffering a spot of sledging from Marsh behind the stumps. So he pulled out of the crease, before the next ball, and wandered a short way down the wicket, where he said: "Excuse me Mr Bailhache, would you mind asking Mr Marsh to fucking well shut up, please?"


 * Perhaps it was conduct of this sort which earned him the nickname Rowdy! 81.102.15.200 (talk) 15:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
