Stop ********ing having a whinge over a few bad decisions and try to win a game of cricket. And to the selectors its time to breed the youngsters or the dynasty of Australian cricket is ********ed. You dont want to leave it to late and turn out like the windies.

BURN FOR THE ********ING CAP!
The only one doing it at the moment is Brett Lee.

Warne is holding the side well so is Langer. But the future looks bright with Tait.

Oh, I see. Ponting have even an inkling of a plan for one of the English batsman then?
Other than to bowl Warne for 50 overs straight from the same end?
Vaughan at least has an imagination, and it's certainly worked so far. :rolleyes:

The extent of Vaughan's creative captaincy is to repeatedly move players onto the boundary whenever a 4 or a 6 is hit, and the dash of the field to check with Duncan before he makes a decision of his own.
He's a chronic reactionary with no killer instinct or forward thinking.

Better than Ponting who operates based on whatever Buchanans computer says
As for putting players on the boundary, shocking choice that, he should follow Pontings lead and let the Aussies score over a 100 runs in the 1 area because he is to stubborn to change and put someone down there

If any of the Aussie cricket team is reading this (unlikely) i have this to say:
See that baggy cap you are wearing on your head? That's what you are FKEN playing for! You are FKEN Australia now play like it.

Not a shot at Brett Lee, but to suggest he's the only one playing for the cap is perhaps the dumbest thing I've read on here and with the likes of Eddiesmyth and Tiger-Clown present it's quite something.
Get it through your heads people.
Australia can't win every ball, of every over, of every session, of every innings, of every day, of every test match, of every series.
Just because a teams losing it doesn't necessarily mean there not trying. Not executing yes, but all the players bleed for the cap and to suggest otherwise is pathetic.

Oh dear.
They know who they are. They want to win.
Now you FKEN understand Australia can't win every test match and every series they play.
You sound like another front runner to me, hanging ********** on your team when losing but basking in the glory when winning. They try just as hard either way, but real fans and real people support there team through thick and thin and doesn't suggest stupid things like they're not trying or whatever the hell your getting at.

Sadly mate as true as that may be, if he wins the Ashes pommie bastards the world over will portray him as the second coming.

Why's Vaughan taking credit for all these "unique" field placings?
They are remarkably similar to the ones Nassar Hussain had 3 years ago in the 2002 Ashes
Just because he has the better bowlers who'd bowl better to the field doesn't mean he's suddenly a genius who made up all these funny fields
The unique field they set for Hayden was exactly the same as the one Hussain set for him in 2002, Haydos made three tons.
He's no better a captain than Nassar, and Nassar wasn't very good

I know they can't win every over, session, game, series but at the moment they are winning nothing. As a supporter i like to see them do well and i haven't not once ever given up on them or been one of those people who are only around for the good times.
It's frustrating to watch them like this so FKEN let people have an opinion.

Not winning you mean?
I suppose you expect West Coast to win every match of every season and every premiership of every year?
Is is that hard to consider the possible fact that they might just not be as good as England?

So you want to get at me now because i'm a West Coast supporter?
I'm not arrogant and i don't expect everything to go Australia's way. I'm allowed to say what i feel and i don't care if you have a problem with what i have to say.

Who you support has nothing to do with it.
Its the fact you seem to think because Australia's not winning there not trying and they have some magical button at there disposal they can turn on to start winning.

Why bring up West Coast then???
I want my country do well and i don't know what country you supprt but i all i want is to see them do their best and i know they are better than this.

Because you see where it says 'club' and next to it 'West Coast'.
Its called an example.
Personally I've never met a scorecard that lies.

Not as good as England? I'd be tipping West Coast by 30 goals!
Or England by an innings and 300, depending on which game they're playing.

If you had of said that you used West Coast as an example in the first place the question would not of been asked.
Quite frankly, get over it. I want my country to do well, if you can't get your head around that it's your problem.

Alot of people bringing up the fact you cant expect the aussies to win, and they are right. However the issue of the trhead is for the aussies to stop their ********ing bitching and complaining and concentrate playin the game and not on the umpires or wat decisions Micheal Vaughn is making.
Personally i think the formidable era of aussie cricket will be ended. Its time to swing the axe and bring in young players if the future of australian cricket is gonna still be strong. The way the team is heading at the moment is like the West Indies, lost so many of their players in a space of three years and now they are pretty ********.

Have a look at how Apollo Crud supports players in his team trying their guts out.
