That catch would get caught maybe one out of ten

Bowling looked thin against a class player
He's one of my favourite players and was amazing to watch last night. Shame it was against us, but it really was world class batting.

In the great scheme of things it's brilliant for Aus cricket that he's realising his potential.

We simply lost too many wickets too cheaply and too early. Got going later on in our innings, but then Khawaja was just too classy a batsman to contain, the Thunder kept chipping in the singles and we only took two lousy wickets. The Strikers saved their worst bloody game for a home final after having finished top. Again. Frankly, that is disrespectful to me as as a fan (even a somewhat casual fan) and the other 48,000 people. :thumbsdown:
The game at Spotless was worse IMO

Lleyton Hewitt despite being the club's number 1 ticket holder has never been announced as a club ambassador.

I'm not sure if ambassador roles were introduced after he was named number 1 ticket holder but it seems a very strange omission.

So does Patty Mills now get the number 1 ticket holder from Lleyton Hewitt now that he has retired or does Lleyton keep it for a while?

Give it to Patty! although I think he loves the Broncos a bit more than us, judging by following him on twitter.

Or Adam Scott.
Does our number 1 ticket holder need to be a prominent active sportsperson? From memory, I think other teams/sports even have poli-es as number 1 ticket holders.

Happy 4th of July....;)

Gee, everyone's loves fireworks. We went into the city and thousands of others did as well.

Now my whinge - if you are going top drive and stay on the speed limit, get the **** into the left hand land. OMG, it shits me when someone sits 5 KMS below the speed limit in the right hand land.

Where the bloody hell are your freeways. They are awesome.

I think everyone has Learned that it is a waste of time even using the left lane as its full of parked cars. I really notice it as odd when I'm back in Adelaide. Bloody dangerous. If you take your eyes off the road for a second, the car in front swerves around a parked car which you could not see, leaving said parked car, in your way unexpectedly. Then you get boxed in, best just to use the right lane exclusively.

Oh no, there were 2 lanes and a parking lane.

2 cars were driving parallel to each other about 5 kms under the speed limit.
