Warwick Armstrong - like Inzy plus David Boon plus Freddie during his 'pie years'

In response to June and also because not a lot's going on today, here's a picture of Warwick Armstrong, the heaviest cricketer ever to play at Test level. He's mighty fat.

We all know the greatest batsmen and bowlers, but not a lot of us know the fattest bastards to play Test cricket. Warwick Armstrong played for Australia and was bizarrely nicknamed "The Big Ship". We'd have nicknamed him "The Fat Bastard". It's maybe not that clever ordinarily, but the inclusion of the definite article 'the' raises it to another level.

Let's all pay tribute to "The Fat Bastard" by eating crisps and gammon tonight. And maybe drinking some beer. We reckon that old Warwick was partial to the odd glass of rendered goose fat mixed with ethanol.
