Q: Rob Thornton - watch the ball in everything you do

Cricket has taken Rob Thornton too many places and it’s been a journey full of runs, wickets, premierships and love.

From Parkes, Tamworth, Sydney, Scotland and Newcastle as a player and now coach, it’s been quite the journey, so let’s find out more about Rob Thornton.

However, I loved Edinburgh and having experienced a dry summer and the Edinburgh Festival, and despite having spoken to Newcastle and Sydney grade clubs, I made the decision to stay through the winter and experienced my first white Christmas, it was -18 on Christmas Day.

This became permanent as I had full time work and by my third season I was captain of the merged Royal High Stewarts Melville (RHSM) club and had met my Scottish future wife.
