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 🙏🙏😎

Went to School with James - his nickname was Petal.
Merv - great character
AND... I met Billy at a few pubs, ass everyone in Geelong did, always a lovely chap, God bless him.
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
and lots of sledging to unsettle batsmen, and if you were lucky a tongue lashing!

Big Merv, is my favourite cricketer ever
Went to see Merv Hughes first shield match for Victoria at Kardinia Park. Went onto become a giant in the game.
Merv could have written that off as community service.
Brayshaw loves pumping up his ordinary ability. Biggest flog in Australian media, thinks we're all Victorians
You are so right
Which head?
