Profile : Mersea's enigma. Undoubtedly Stud is one of the most talented sportsman to come from the island, unfortunately prefers to spend his time watching Sky and frequenting the local hostelry. A dangerous batsman, holds the Mersea record for the highest individual innings with his unbeaten 155 against Tendring Park in 1994. Also a lively bowler, who often livens up a game with some interesting verbals. One of those cricketers who is well capable of turning a game single handed.
