Re: Two Sri Lanka cricketers wounded in Pakistan shooting
They told us the cricketers would be safe because it is like a religion over there. Well I guess they have now proved that it is a religion over there. Isn't religion behind almost every war or terrorist attack nowadays?
Re: Cheats XI.
How could I have possibly overlooked Cronje?
Has to be the Captain. He is proven to be the greatest cheat the game has ever seen. All the others we have mentioned have been borderline gamesmanship but Cronje just out & out cheated. (not the only one I think we would all agree...
Re: Shaun Tait
Does he straighten a bent elbow in his delivery action? A: Yes
Does it bend 15%? A: No
Therefore, does he chuck? A: No, not under current laws of the game.
Under the laws Ian Meckiff played then he probably would be chucking. But he doesn't play, and never has played, under...
Re: Australia H
I picked Hayden & Hogg for two reasons
1/. didn't think of Dan Harris or Henriques
2/. even though they are retired they would still be quite capable.
Originally I could only think of 10 so I had Hilditch in there bexause as chairman of selectors he would probably...
Re: Swing Bowling
I am in no way going to say Anderson is dud. He is a regular bowler in one of the better sides in the world. That automatically puts him in the best 20 or so in the world.
Having said that, as an Aussie, I have always been pleased while he is bowling as I have never seen...
Australia H
The squad for the SA tour has 5 players begiining with H
Hughes
Haddin
Hauritz
Hussey
Hilfenhaus
Reminds me of the early 80's when we had
Hughes
Hogg
Hookes
Hilditch
Hurst
Got me thinking, can we name an Australia H side that would be competitive right now.
Hughes...
Re: Cheats XI.
Captain has to be Douglas Jardine. His lack of sportsmanship was no spur of the moment or opportunistic thing. It was a deliberatley calculated tactic.
I can't believe no-one has mentioned Javed Miandad. Remember when he ran Rodney Hogg out while he was patting the pitch down...
Re: Juddy.
2 points here.
1/. I would have been surprised if he had stayed after the appalling way West Coast have managed (or not managed) his injury this season. From what I understand it is the same sort of injury Roger James suffered at Port Adelaide. He never fully recovered and for...
Re: Cameron White..
His batting is taylor made for about #5 in 20/20. He plays extremely good cross bat shots but I suspect the other teams would work him out early. He needs to bat when wickets don't matter.
As for his bowling, Lehmann was better, and he wasn't regarded as a bowler until...
Re: the last person to post on this thread wins...
What The???
This is a nonsense thread designed specifically for people to post any old thing to try and be the last one. It don't have to make sense, it don't have to flow, it don't have to be anything.
There aint nuthin wrong with that...
Re: What really pisses you off?
I hate those info ad breaks you get in the middle of those great shows about the Ab-blaster or the Crunchomatic or the Slida-Gym or..............
Re: Muraliathran out of Twenty20 World Cup
Someone has to suggest it, so I may as well be the one.
Now Murali doesn't have to confront the Aussie crowds in the upcoming tour.
He has only played once in Australia in the last 4 opportunities to do so, and that was in the Tsunami benefit...
20/20 Cricket at the Olympics
The ICC have approached the IOC seeking inclusion of 20/20 Cricket in the 2012 Olympics.
Do you think it can really work in that sort of carnival?
With only 6 or so genuine medal chances competing, I can't see the IOC giving any serious consideration to the...
Re: AFL Round 22
If Adelaide win the first game the rest of the round is just about dead.
Some minor interest to see if the Hawks could hang on to 4th spot but that's about it.
If Collingwood win though, then nearly every game becomes crucial.
Re: A-League
United fan here too.
Don't go to the games but watch em all on Fox.
Score was 2-2 against Roar.
Yeah last years final was a tad embarrassing.
Can't go that bad again.
Bit dissappointed in our recruiting this year.
Our new guys are good but some other teams have done...
