    Top 3 players ever from each club

    The best in the world was two countries, basically, and the only opposition he could actually play against was largely restricted to a classicist society in England and THEN the people he competed against further dissipated to two groups, only one of which he competed with in terms of his direct...

    Top 3 players ever from each club

    ‘Part timers in a suburban comp’ yet you’ve cited a largely amateur cricketer who played in two countries and at 10 venues his entire career, and against 4 opponents, one of them 37 times out of his 52 matches. Do you not think that the part timers in a suburban comp puts everyone on the same...

    Rumour Lachie Neale

    I asked the question ‘if.’ However generally if you are perfectly happy with everything at home you don’t do that - or shouldn’t anyway (you leave or you try and fix it), even if it is as simple as wanting to get your leg over.

    Rumour Lachie Neale

    There ARE - I’ve been Lachie and there ARE reasons i did what I did (albeit not with my ex wife’s best friend, it was someone she had nothing to do with). But reasons aren’t excuses and there is nothing that would ever make it justified and nothing is going to change that regardless of the...

    I like your posting mate, but this made me laugh. They’re 4-down: what do you think they’re gonna do, declare 😂😂

    Carse reminds me of a shitter version of Goughy. Doesn’t have the skill level to match but he does have the ticker that Gough brought with him

    Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval

    He never bowled ridiculously long spells with them in the team when he was captain. He was never fit enough. Go back and check. His knee and hamstring never allowed it. I swear sometimes people forget that he hasn’t been captain for the last 15 years. He did it when Root was, because he...

    Probably because he’s got a long history of actually doing that, and also a long history when fit, of being the ‘donkey work’ bowler while the frontliners rotate at the other end.

    Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval

    Because they have played in some of the most fascinating series of the last 3 years, I’d have thought. Their 3 series against NZ alone would have been worth it. But yeah, if teams chasing down huge targets, or winning a Test by 1 run after following on aren’t your thing I guess test cricket is...

    Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval

    I know we clash most summers but this is an honest question: How much actual cricket do you actually watch when Australia doesn’t play

    I’ve seen him take some good catches there but wouldn’t class him much higher than average really

    I am one of them but I don’t think any of us have ever line up to watch him field. The reality is he’s hit just under 100 runs in two tests. It’s not Pompeii and Herculaneum all over again.

    Since Webster debuted he has batted 100+ balls 3 times. Khawaja has done it twice. In one more test.

    This could end up biting me if he somehow makes a century but the old ‘do what your opponent least wants you to do’ adage sure hasn’t been heeded by Australia here by bringing Khawaja back in instead of Webster

    That clip made me want to punch myself in the face just so I could hopefully forget what I’d just seen and heard
