SA v WA

Russian · Nov 9, 2003

Andy Flower hits the sign and makes 74. Cosgrove makes 50. Davison 36 from 23. Blewett 49

Harvey 3/39 (10)

SA 7/262

in reply Campbell out lbw Rofe first ball, WA 1/11 after 6.1

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

I didn't think 262 was good enough on a beautiful batting strip.

But we're bowling pretty well; WA 1/27 after 10.

Go Redbacks.

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

WA 1/38 after 14

Nine runs off Cleary's first over.

I would have waited til the 15 over mark before making a bowling change. Poor move by Blewett.

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

Mark Cosgrove, WHAT A CATCH!!!

On ya bike Langer...

WA 2/87 after 22.2 overs

Cosgrove managed to run

Cosgrove managed to catch

But he managed to do both at once?!?

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

Cosgrove is obviously fitter than he looks.

WA 3/112 after 27 overs.

North brilliantly stumped by Graham Manou off John Davison.

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

Bowling Rofe out was a bit of a gamble.

10-2-26-1.

A star in the making.

Russian · Nov 9, 2003

Cosgrove's problems are all inside his head. He relies on confidence. A lot of his bulk is actually muscle.

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

WA 3/155 after 35 overs

The Warriors are on top now. The Hussey/Goodwin partnership is proving very productive.

And we still have to get six more overs out of Johnson (or Higgs or Blewett).

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

Rofe put down a sitter.

DaveW · Nov 9, 2003

Western Australia win by 7 wickets in the 48th over

I was right in the first place. We really needed about 280.

However, things might have panned out differently had Rofe hung onto that catch off Goodwin...

LordLucifer · Nov 9, 2003

That game was nothing like the Collaroy Plateau V Seaforth clash yesterday. If you thought last week was bad Dave, you'll be glad you didn't play this week I can assure you.

Rob · Nov 9, 2003

What exactly did Campbell do for the umpires to have a chat about him?

Nein, in all their incompetence, started with the coverage a few overs into the WA innings so I missed the dismissal and idiot features Greig mentioned something about the umpires talking afterwards about how he took his time leaving. Was that it, or was there anything else?

It did look as though Campbell had a right to be p*ssed though, the ball struck him a good 6-8 inches outside the line of off.

He makes Dean Rioli look anorexic.

BTW,where's Eastaugh to tell us how good SA are ?

Ghostwriter · Nov 9, 2003

Why is Greg Blewett captain? he is the biggest tosser in cricket, his attitude today was atrocious, get rid of him as captain.

w00dy · Nov 9, 2003

Beau Casson is a *******!

he is a pie chucker, he bowls pies... pies.... every 2nd ball is a full bunger, he drops catches... and people place this bloke up with cameron white and hauritz...

fitzmantle · Nov 9, 2003

Well said Rob, campbell decision was deplorable.

As for Cosgrove, I would be severly embarressed to be SA.

As for Casson. Well Casson has actually taken more than 2 wickets in a game unlike White.

Heading towards another outright loss?

I've heard that Blewett has been a reluctant captain in the past. But when Lehmann's not there, there simply isn't anyone else.

Maybe Flower could take it one if he's willing.

Huh?

fitzmantle · Nov 10, 2003

the fact some fat little dumpling is some how considered to be an athlete in your state (im sure even tasmania would show him the door). Watching him bumble around the boundry was the funniest thing ive seen in cricket for some time.

Who said he was an "athlete"?

ross gibbs · Nov 10, 2003

fitzmantle,
cosgrove looked very ordinary for the first 40 odd balls he was out there but will benefit greatly from the knock he was able to eventually put together. was no doubt good that flower was there to talk him through it and very kind of casson to give him a few sighters!
the sooner he gets a gig in the pura cup team (there are some spots opening up) the better because he will turn out to be a very 'solid' contributor for sa in the future.

Dogga · Nov 10, 2003

The sooner SA show the door to duds like Deitz & Higgs the better we will be. These guys are hacks and there dismissals yesterday were bloody awful.

Why don't we blood some more youth? Ferguson looks as though he may be ok. Cosgrove, although he is on the Boonie/Boof diet, is showing encouraging signs.

Please selectors give our young guys a go, in front of these interstate REJECTS.

I'm here. But not to tell how 'good' we are. How weak and pathetic more likely. I have had a gutful. They are like the Glenelg Football Club. They think changing coaches is the immediate answer. Sure there is the talent there but at the same time there are several who need to go immediately, I would get rid of Higgs. A statement has to be made. Your better of giving another youngster with a future a go, just like we have with Cleary,Tait,Rofe,Cosgrove to name several.
Anything less than a win in the 4dayer this week against WA will not be acceptable.

Mark Higgs, the most overrated cricketer in this country

Which is what ****s me about this "dissent" rule. A player is not allowed to show even the slightest disappointment over an obviously ordinary umpiring decision, yet these clowns still get umpiring gigs. Just look at some of the farcical decisions going on in India at the moment
