Game Ashes 4th Test. Kookaburra vs Duke, MCG.

[smasha]

This should be England's theme song when they bat.

Kerry OKeefe: “ Jake Weatherald has always wanted to open the batting in a Boxing Day test…. Just not twice in one day”


Very good

I liked his comment during the lunch break, "The last note of the Australian national anthem lasted longer than Ollie Pope's innings."

 

[Mr Blicavs]

Except the weak campaigner didn't open the batting twice in one day, he sent in Boland to bat as a nightwatchman ahead of him.

Who gives a shit ?



Just spent 3 hours watching one of the all time great NBA Chistmas Day games and individual performances in sporting history this afternoon

Joker's amazing performance v The Wolves was the stuff of legend and will be talked about for years/generations to come.

No one will ever remember this test match or any other test match ever for that matter, aside from a few rustled on Boomers and Pommies still clinging to archic values and times..

Time to move to the 21st Century mate. NBA is lit !!!

LOL I'll watch Married at First Sight before I watch basketball.

Fair enough.

I won't make more any anti cricket posts in this thread anymore, but i wasn't lying when I said Nikola Jokic's game on Chistmas Day (us time) was very close to historic/all time legend levels from any pro sports person this century.

Its not hyperbole either.

I haven't seen an MCG performance like that since Carlton's last outing

Bit of a Charlie Curnow effort, that. 45% of his score is from umpire assisted free throws

Except England got a higher score.

Coz I'm in charge a flog

FTFY

11 of his points came from the F/T line and Denver were also missing 3 of their starters

Did you actually watch the game, in cricket context, it would be worthy of one of Keith Miller's all time goal all round performances for The Baggy Green (aka 5 wickets and a ton in a single bowling and batting 1st innings job)

Head out, Usman a duck, this game will be over today

 

[TedDougChris]

I would like to announce I am coming out of retirement to play in the last Ashes test. I can’t be worse than these flogs !!

 

[Chronz]

Surely we don't see Weatherald again in this team. Useless.

No issue with this, provided Marnus and Usman go as well. It’s time for change !!

Labuschagne averaging 20.84 in 2025 - the worst average for a top 6 batsman since John Dyson in 1981. Diabolical for a number 3.

 

[TedDougChris]

Get rid of Green as well, he is dog shit

 

[Dinsdale]

So thats it, Poms need 175 to win.

 

[TedDougChris]

So thats it, Poms need 3 or 4 innings to win.

Based upon current form

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Checking in !

 

[Chronz]

Checking in !

We won the Ashes 3-0 already. They DGAF anymore and everyone who bought tickets to this shitshow should be refunded in full.

Does the AFL give Carlton games at tbe G?….. I thought they were relegated to home ganes at Marvel with the other Minnie clubs like the Aints and Throwdogs

 

[Mr Blicavs]

Just pick the Victorian Shield team to play the Sydney Test…. Makes perfect sense

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Gone all quiet of a sudden in this thread



Might pop down to The Royal and celebrate with my English friends wearing my Leeds Kit !

England win a test match in Australia. There is hope for Essendon to win a final zackah

Maybe…
