Great news in recruiting with the signing of 399th Australian Test Player/West Australian ( Best State Player 06'07 ) and now Bushrangers
Chris Rogers comes to Windy Hill. Chris who is now playing with English County side "Derbyshire" at Queens Park Chesterfield will be a great inclusion
to the ECC. From reports Chris is colour blind and short sighted so start planning some gaggs.
