Wow! I work with so many people and work to help so many others and majority of people are lovely.

I wonder why you think people are s....t?

I meet people from all walks of life too and as I said previously people aren't how you describe them to be. I guess it comes down to the attitude of the person judging others.

A person is fine.

People are shit.

People are good, generally, it is the lunatics that are the problem.

Correct

You sound like K.

 

[Scatter]

Credit to Babar…spat the dummy last game which was understandable if not ideal, now giving high fives and getting round his teammates. Swallowed his pride and being the bigger man.

 

[King Huskii]

You are? That doesn't make people shit.

 

[ImperialPurple]

You are? That doesn't make people shit.

But it makes me being in large groups of them pretty shit for me. I was being a bit facetious, but if we’re being serious, I meant ‘I don’t much like being around people.’

That’s why BF works for me - I can be as involved or as lurkerish as I need to be, chatting about one of my intense interests / obsessions. I can disappear for any length of time and no one gives a toss, and I can reappear and no one needs an explanation why I haven’t been around.
Anyway - back to the cricket… (happy to chat via DM if you want).

For what it's worth IP I really enjoyed our coffee and chat, you were good company.

Gonna be tough to stop the Sixers on Tuesday, although it looks like Curran won't be available so he can join the England WC squad.

I expect the hot weather and start time will keep a lot of people away

It certainly will be .
Getting smith out cheaply and ensuring Starc doesn’t get his tail up and we should have more than enough firepower with both bat and ball to take care rest of the Sixers team.

which hopefully leads to noses having another meltdown at the hands of scorchers

I think it was Slipknot reference.

I was quoting Slipknot, I thought you were a metalhead

 

[Spirit Level]

Anyone sitting near the sightscreen tomorrow? You know what to do....

 

[ImperialPurple]

Shouldn’t there be some sort of ‘minimum H&A games’ to be able to play finals? (Joking not joking )
**** Starc back to whatever game he was playing when he last played for them ELEVEN YEARS AGO!
Sixers might have got all the shiniest players over the years, but they are deadset the most plastic of all the franchises.
LFG Scorchers

Both the Canes and Sixers have blow ins and should really be the favourites to win.

Perth really hits above, pretty much had a settled lineup the whole time. Yes we've had Marsh all season but it's not like he's a test player that we've magically gained for finals

He's the captain of the national T20 team.

 

[Spirit Level]

He's the captain of the national T20 team.

My point was that he's been in the team since the start of the season and hasn't missed a game, unlike Smith and Starc who are just blow ins and basically a cheat code for the Sixers to make and win finals right at the end

I am. Slipknot sux

 

[largebus]

If this is true, the Cott Hotel for lunch is certainly an interesting choice, Trav

 

[Piggy Smalls]

I just read that Murphy and Harley are going to bowl one ball to each other in the Scorchers pre-game entertainment!

I am guessing Murph won he is holding the ball while Harley is left with duck egg

 

[Docker82]

The scorchers saw Harley Reid and decided to play as sh** as the eagles.

Did their best to make him feel at home. Did it very well too.

 

[DMan 11]

Is is getting VERY interesting now.
5 down at the halfway mark and below scorchers run rate …
We get Smith out and we win this …

 

[DMan 11]

Aaaaand 1 minute later, Smiths out !!!
