Opinion NMFC Board Cricket Thread III

[Lomas]

Claims gate is 95k while showing wide shot showing the upper decks at least half empty.

Sure

They must be out the back of Adelaide oval.

 

[Jimmy's Hot Dogs]

Congratulations to the HS for this update headline.

 

[muttley45]

Any chance of a yorker on the stumps ?

 

[Samsquanch]

Not anymore.

Actually, the wickets only tumbled after we got back in the car

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Lol get farked.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Theres 4 days to go.

They should have just called the day there.

 

[Themanbun]

Jhyes shoulder seems to have robbed him of a yard or two sadly.

Yeh, bit ridiculous. Poms miss out on 5 till 6 happy hour.

 

[Lomas]

Boland now our opener. What a a talent.

 

[Hojuman]

Do you think Boland realises he has to come out first thing tomorrow morning ?

 

[hellas_johnny]

Drop catch and a 4 to finish the day to add insult to injury love it

 

[ferball]

Well that was an interesting day of cricket.

 

[Samsquanch]

Boland now our opener. What a a talent.

Top scorer in the second innings so far too.

Probably just beginning to dawn on him about now. You know fast bowlers... Not the sharpest tools in the toolbox.

 

[krakouers]

So another test done in 3 days?

You would expect day 4 + 5 tickets for the SCG would be cheap

 

[gokangas]

Looking like a 3 day test at best. The execs at Cricket Australia will be on the floor at HQ curled up in the fetal position rocking back and forwards as they realised they are about to cop another multi million dollar disaster. The series has been a financial disaster for them.

Yep. Broadcast rights in the future will be less, or with more clauses at least. Looks like flat decks for a few years.

Im not one to know the first thing about organisational financials, but it seems like poor stratrgy to bank on something that may happen (how long a test will run).

Apparently the Perth test was a loss in income of over $10m

Partially their fault with the instruction to add more seam friendly test wickets.

One of the strangest starts to a Boxing Day Test.

England got dangled the carrot....no Cummins, no Lyon....win the toss and get us all out for 152.

Here's your morale victory handed to you on a plater.

Nup......continue to shit themselves. Same old England.



Boland every time he steps onto the MCG gets this 'Maximus Decimus Meridius' level of love from the crowd. It must be a buzz.
