Opinion NMFC Board Cricket Thread III

[DuckYeah]

Windies are 0-110 in response to NZ’s 8-575 declared. Batting paradise.

Are the Windies finally taking test cricket seriously?

 

[DuckYeah]

Cam Green needs to go. Webster in please

 

[RooInNorthLondon]

About to Head into our final weekly executive team meeting of the year without a Carey in the world unlike my Pom colleagues…

 

[DuckYeah]

Starc, carey or head for player of the series thus far?

 

[Samsquanch]

What happened to the hotspot we used to use?

Someone said it costs the broadcast company $50k per day for the equipment to be used.

That sounds completely ridiculous. Probably true though

 

[Nate7]

Until they make you blow in a bag before you enter the minesite

I think you mean INHALE the bag, especially in WA.

 

[DuckYeah]

Brisbane heat bowling absolute pies in the 20/20

 

[Samsquanch]

Had a gutful of Green. The most overrated cricketer ever. Fk him off

I actually thought 7 was pretty good for him.

You've been to one of krakouers parties I take it Nate.

Starc

 

[DuckYeah]

Starc

Im not sure its that clear cut. There are great arguments for all 3

 

[the big lebowski]

Carey for mine

His keeping has been phenomenal

Plus the runs

My choice too. How many times can you see a keeper change the course of a game the way he did standing up. Best performance I've seen

Scorchers have caught the disease.

Heat are half a chance to somehow chase down 257.

But starc’s been bloody fantastic.

For me they are clear standouts from head (at this stage)

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Starc won man of the match in the 1st 2 tests.

Took 10 for the game and 7 in the 1st innings.

Then took 6 in the 1st innings, 8 for game and top scored with 77 to get us a good lead.

Made another half century in this Test.

Yep. That’s how good Carey’s keeping has been

 

[gokangas]

Greatest run chase in BB history - amazing game. That was worth watching.

 

[Chip Scab1]

Much like getting on the piss at 6am at the airport, no one bats an eyelid!

Correct. My favourite is the dudes who smoke enormous blunts at LAX just on their way to the terminal.

Carey for mine

just doing his job, real keepers don't require flowers thrown in their general direction. He'll know he's keeping well, it's clearly the most thankless task in world sport .

There was a time you could do that on the top floor drop off point of Tullamarine Airport after 8pm.

No comment…

Two notable places - where the LAX-it bus picks up at TBIT and drops off offsite for taxi/uber, these are common places to indulge.
