this is a Clarke appreciation thread - it's fairly clearly marked
while that title has drawn all of the adolescent trolls out of hiding, it's also cause to reasonably to expect that the haters would go elsewhere to express their vitriol
an Australian captain just scored 300+ against the world number 2 side after coming in at 3/37...is it too much to expect that an 'appreciation thread' would be free from all the slagging off and obvious trolling?
Mods, i understand there's not much you can do about the constant stream of hate that makes this forum more like Bay 13 but surely you can at least enforce the 'stay on topic' principle on this thread and provide some relief
seriously, the school holidays are like a ****** creche on this forum!
