Live Event Sweet FA Tour of Bigfooty - SFA vs Cricket Board

[TedDougChris]

Johnny had it all wrong. If you're going to get involved with people at the cricket, do it like Bob.

Bob’s batting wasn’t much though !! He needed a full face helmet from memory....

 

[Santana]

not a fan of SFA, but appreciate the invite, philreich

Same, thanks anyways

 

[Tonga Bob]

Mind you Tonga Bob - here is the last recorded footage of my bowling action....

Can anyone here give me any pointers ??

Is that your wrong’un?

 

[TedDougChris]

Is that your wrong’un?

There is very little right about that delivery......

Everyone make sure you get your stretching in!

Did you ever see Merv Hughes' Ashes diet? Beer made up at least 70% of it - perhaps I'm underselling it there.

I'd hate to think what Boonie's was then

Perfect segue into arguably Australian TV's finest hour.

Brb making alt accounts so that those in this thread don't feel like abject failures

I think The Cricket Board will wipe the floor with the Sweet FA.

They have a solid leadership group in Gough and Jim Prideaux and the international all rounder PhatBoy

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Other internationals who could cheerfully help slaughter the SFA are eddiesmith WaywardSonSon and the inscrutable Plugger35

I expect, after a disappointing summer, these three will enjoy a win over the SFA upstarts.

IF Plugger35 is considered inscrutable, I'm not sure I want to know what scrutable means.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

In a potential match up that stats nerds will have reaching for their alphabet statsguru, we could have Mister B towelling up Mister M

haha... my irony was a touch on the heavy side.

Ha ha, with Grand Uncle Horace coming in off the long run, still putting it in good areas.

 

[TedDougChris]

Should we run a two headed competition this week, we take on the cricketers in simulated footy (Qooty) and simulated cricket ???

I'm sure we can find 11 dodgy Sweet FA players that don't need to be shown which end of the bat to hold (unlike England)....

I'm pretty sure you need to hit the ball for it to be considered batting. Just walking out there and holding your bat and helmet above your head won't work....

This is why I was always picked last in school sports.

Judging from the photo you show aptitude for carrying a brolly.

By walking out with a bat, he's already ahead of Bob Willis, who forgot his one day.

CROWD: [chanting] HOOOOORIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!! HOOOOORIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!! HOOOOORIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

If the Cricket Board has a spot, I would be happy to come out of retirement for just this one match.

 

[damicky]

Grand Uncle Horace can’t run … he can barely walk at his age
