Do the references really need to specify that the language=English? We're not likely to find any in Afrikaans, and this is the English WP?– MDCollins ( talk) 02:27, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
The flag shown in the infobox is anachronistic. Pollock, rightly or wrongly (and it appears that he, at least, thought wrongly) played under the flag of the Union of South Africa (pictured). I have commented on the use of the SAn flag before but I an not sure if anything has happened since then. In a general sense (and maybe better discussed at WT:CRIC) I would remove the flag from the infobox altogether as (admittedly minor) WP:FLAGCRUFT. -- Mattinbgn\ talk 10:17, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
I am having real trouble finding anything about the Newlands walk-off in around 1971 other than a vague throwaway mention. I know RG & PM Pollock were involved because I have a picture but I know very little else about the incident other than the venue and that only the one ball was bowled in the match. I don't know the date, what the teams were, who else was involved, what were the consequences etc. Can anyone help? -- Mattinbgn\ talk 10:44, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
1972 Wisden? -- Dweller ( talk) 11:08, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
Pollock is or has been a UCB selector, but I can't find RS to show dates. Anyone? -- Dweller ( talk) 14:03, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
Any suggestions for wikilinking "force"? I'm not entirely sure what he means by "force"... is it a firm kind of straight batted defensive shot that goes for runs? Played off front foot or back, or both? -- Dweller ( talk) 17:00, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
I'd never heard of that "Little Dog" nickname before? Are we sure that it was reasonably widely used? JH ( talk page) 21:41, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
