Carse got away with one.

Green got the right call.

Yes, but Carse got away with one.

Goes from bad to worse for Green. Where the hell was Webster looking for the missed catch? Wake up Jeff. Hope smith can score a few runs. Want a 5 day test!

 

[Carn The Berries]

That's exactly my point - thanks for proving it perfectly. Anytime anything that happens that involves him (even if it is good) people will rip into him because of perceived past failings. What hope does he have? "Oh Green the useless oaf, he just fielded one at gully, he's done nothing all series, how about make a run mate!!!!"

That "past" is all in this series... He shouldn't even be in the team for this test match.

I have a great laugh reading some of these posts, I assure you.

Green milometers from a wicket then should've had one next ball and everyone on the forum rips into him. Makes no sense to me. He'll get a wicket next over and is guaranteed to cop it from someone. Or he won't take a wicket and he'll still cop it.

cause hes done **** all all series mate.

 

[Westend]

The Green hate on here is psychotic. Genuinely making things happen and a bunch of cry-babies think he stole a baked bean from their toast.

yup the hatred is next level

the lad is having a crack and its not going his way

keep plugging away greenie .keep your foot behind the line and maybe your teammates will support you by taking a catch

True. Given the retirements coming up.maybe he should do the reverse Smith. Give up the batting and focus on bowling.
Got the speed but not the fitness needs to.land them better and pick up a few more ks and could be test quality.

I don't see a world where Green gets in on his bowling alone, he's a serviceable all rounder who needs to work on his decision making when batting.

well, lets see him doing something actually good/ brilliant. Not just what we expect (like being able to field normally)

 

[Bedi]

give Head a trundle before lunch

We bring in a second all rounder... Bat him below Green in the order... And give him 2 overs???

I cannot fathom why Green is still bowling.

They did....

Someone will explain why that's not Cameron's fault.

because he nearly got 2 wickets with 2 balls

We talk about what Australia's batting lineup will look like without Steve Smith, England without Joe Root leaves a chasm they won't be able to replace overnight, he's barely missed a match so that theory hasn't been put to the test that often. He's the only batter who has cashed in for the whole series so far for them. He's there best pure batsman by far. The day he calls it a day is the day England will be fearful of the future.

worth trying slugs spin ??

Webster’s bowling is a whole lot less threatening than Green’s.

 

[dumb]

green's series

bowl: 3 wk @ 76
bat: 112 runs @ 18

that's not me hating on him. that's his series.

How good was that by Ussie!

Yeah I mean we shouldn’t expect a Kallis, he’s good enough to average 40 with the bat and 30 with the ball IMO, we’ll see I guess.

Beau Webster reminds me of one of Don Martin's characters from MAD magazine.

The keeping the foot behind the line is actually partly because of the imbecile curating this travesty. How many times (including Green) have bowlers fallen over so far in 1 day and 1 session.

How many tests has he been “plugging away” for now?

Root should say something like “oh you can field well now that it’s your last test”

 

[Bucking Beads]

Webster bowling genuine poo. Bowl the offies because those mediums will do **** all on this road.
