Interesting poll during this past week, with Jake Needham just shading Mark Lawson as your first choice spinner.
Both are youngsters of potential and as such will experience good days and bad. Spinners are generally coming into their prime at around 30, when they know where to bowl and how quickly in different conditions. Both these players have years until they reach that age and will enjoy good and bad times.
I rate Needham a very good bowler with a decent loop and a potential all rounder. Lawson I'll reserve judgement on until we've seen him on more helpful tracks. What I will say for him is that he's bowled with greater accuracy than leg spinners often do and looks a good fielder. While not a great batsman, his cameo at Cardiff last week shows he is not without talent.
If one of them emerged this year it would be a huge bonus. Who knows, John Morris may pull another spinner from somewhere to give them a run for their money?
This week's poll is easy - where will we finish in this year's Championship Division 2?
