Everyone shutup

[fryingpan]

What the hell is everyone doing? Making all these threads like idiots

We've lost a close encounter again with no Lee or McGrath, oh we are the crappest ODI team in the history of cricket, I'm embarrassed rah rah rah SHUTUP. It's one series FFS we're bound to lose one eventually.

We are still going to take out the WC with McGrath and Lee back so give it a rest.

First sensible post you contributed for a while .

 

[the eltham man]

Lee is one of the last blokes you want bowling at the death, he is hopeless!

 

[bus24]

But haven't you heard?

The Australian cricket team will never win another game again.

Well so I've been told

 

[mbuck]

Lee is one of the last blokes you want bowling at the death, he is hopeless!

better than watson or johnson

 

[Browney2006]

Lmao without Lee and McGrath? So what, NZ didnt have Bond or Vettori, god i love the excuses.

 

[wazzabp]

Give a bit of credit to NZ, they chased down a big total yet again.
A top effort by them.

 

[LIONS then DAYLIGHT]

I think the fact people are worried is that in the past, i remember in 03 when we went to India without Lee, Mcgrath or Gillespie to play in a one day series we smashed the teams. (India, NZ)

We had Bracken, Brad Williams, Kasper and Ian Harvey and we won quite easily.

We have had massive scores over-come with a bowling attack that should be able to hold the batsmen down.

I am worried about the World Cup, still think we can win but i have said it before, form coming up to a tournament or series often determines the winner.

Think England before the Ashes 05 and think England before the Ashes 06/07

Everyone saying that England will turn it on when it counts when they were losing to Sri Lanka and Pakistan and then look what happened.

NZ also didn't have Oram. But the Caribbean is a new ball game. BTW I doubt McGrath these days is a boon to have on a flat track with short boundaries. Lara said 2 years ago if he goes to the 2007 WC he'll be cannon fodder.

 

[ManWithNoName]

Gilchrist
Ponting
Clarke
Lee
McGrath

Yep, I'm worried

 

[SBI]

Gilchrist
Ponting
Clarke
Lee
McGrath

Yep, I'm worried

Forgetting one Andrew Symonds.

 

[mcphee_is_a_gun]

Lee might not even be back for the WC, if hes not were in a whole lot of ********.

 

[Romeo]

Gilchrist
Ponting
Clarke
Lee
McGrath

Yep, I'm worried

McGrath was there the other day during that record run chase. Lee problematic recovery. Ponting a boon for the batting, not sure about his bowling capabilities.

Batting's not a problem really but bowling sure is.

 

[Cassius_Clay]

Lee might not even be back for the WC, if hes not were in a whole lot of ********.

I said this ages ago. Deep crap...

 

[ManWithNoName]

I was talking about injured players before with someone and I forgot Symonds. That's twice in an hour. Maybe I have some deep seeded hatred of Symonds?

 

[eddiesmith]

Umm, in case you dont realise this and its obvious you dont

Lee wont be back and NZ chased a huge total 2 days with McGrath playing so once again your excuses are full of holes

As for the addition of batsman to come back, dont think Australia has too many concerns with the batting

 

[Cassius_Clay]

Lee is at his least effective at the end of the innings.

Brilliant one day bowler but far more effective when the ball's new and his second spell.

Correct, but he isnt hopeless at the death...

Uh, Australia lost the series before this one too.

 

[apollo_creed]

Correct, but he isnt hopeless at the death...

he'd definitely be better than anyone there at the moment.

Tait's ok but Lee's experience makes him a far greater weapon at the end of the innings.

Bottom line is Australia desperately need Lee to come back.

 

[Gravel]

I think our fielding has suffered the most - Symonds, Ponting and Clarke put pressure on the batsmen that wasn't there this series.

 

[Blues_Man]

Tait is not okay ...we have seen that over the last few games ..he has no control whatsoever . we need Clarke back ...we cannot go into the world cup with Tait and Johnson playing together ...they will be cannon fodder on the smalll windies grounds .

yup, NZ were fielding a full strength side too! that's why everboyd shouldn't be worried and in the words of John Buchanan " he is satisfied with preparations forthe world cup"

what a load of crap

 

[romanwfw]

Gilchrist
Ponting
Clarke
Lee
McGrath

Yep, I'm worried

Oram
Vettori
Bond
One other batsman, cant remember his name


Yep, I am worried.


I think there's a massive difference between the doomdays hysterics of some people and the genuine concerns of other posters. Dont mix the two groups up cause we're nothing alike

and yep, Symonds probably wont play in the WC, or if he does, it's a definite high-risk play

 

[likka]

Symonds probably wont play in the WC, or if he does, it's a definite high-risk play

Lee is in the same category, probably more high risk.

how long till this thread turns into a "watson is poo" thread
