Yes, tell us what you really think Richie.

Greg Chappell was one of our best ever but he has always been a bit of a different unit. Got what he deserved there

That is why I named my dog "Benaud". The wife wouldn't let me call one of the kids that, so dog got the chocolates
An absolute Gentleman of the game

Billy Stanlake . Gun.

6 foot 8, bowls 145, swings it and is 20 years old. Plays for Queensland, had a delayed start to the season. Also plays for Adelaide Strickers.

I'll keep an eye out for him. I see Colin Munro has got a gig with the strikers too. Now he can hit a ball. Just got a t-20 hundred versus the Bangars

Yes, I watched some of the game. He looked good. Stanlake is in the one day squad for Pakistan so if he does alright he might keep his spot for you guys.

Just what we need. Another good aussie quick having a crack at us !

Starc, Tait ,Johnson, Lee etc

Can we have some more Scott Boland instead ?

Hilfenstaffen unlucky to miss out on a hat trick yet again!

Am I weird for thinking it's weird to have a 29yo in a PM XI that includes the second oldest player who is 24?

I haven't seen the PM's squad, but usually what happens is that 2 or 3 experienced blokes are picked and the rest are all young up and coming rookies that most people wouldn't have heard of.

100 for Mcdermott 8 sixers, can the Hurricanes do it..

Fair enough.

In the last squad Head was the only recognisable name for me.

Obviously. Both Melbourne teams are useless.

Yes they get beaten from the most extraordinary situations....hmmm reminds me of some other team....

Renegade is French for effwit.

Getting a bit sick of Melbourne teams getting beaten off the last ball

Thankfully T20 is Mickey Mouse cricket but OD and FC cricket doesn't get TV time...

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Yeah we get it FS you don't like T20, make sure you keep reminding us.

****ing fantastic game of cricket, Hurricanes have the worst list in the comp and manage to chase down the highest total.

Superb knock by McDermott and the nerve by Broad at the end to come on and keep a cool head.

Brilliant cricket.

Tell us what you really think. And if you were gonna crack the shits about someone repeating the same thing every week (which I don't so don't pull your jocks up so tight) you have tens of thousands of posts to work on.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

I just don't get why you keep talking about T20 if you hate it so much. Makes absolutely zero sense.

 

[Firestarter]

I'm looking forward to longer term cricket over this predictable tosh. Even if we get tonked because we travel like wet toast.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Predictable?

Renegades just got beaten by the worst team in the comp after posting a record score.

That isn't predictable.

 

[Firestarter]

Sydney derby should at least be a cracker. Staying away from Melbourne games will do me and this thread immeasurable good.

 

[darko]

Great game. Shit result.

Fantastic result.
