I don't want to post my 11 because I'd have Slats opening and I know I'd be shouted down for that.

(Whoops!)

Excellent opening bat before he IBF'ed.

Explain Discogs to me. Is it simply a place for finding and purchasing old vinyl?

For the record I have never thrown out or sold any of my original vinyl but have occasionally traded in the past. I do have some highly collectible gems but I could simply never part with them. I reckon if I ended up out on the streets is still buy a trailer to attach to my bike and and cart my records with me.

Sell and buy anything.

CD's, Vinyl, Cassettes....

I only buy CD's from the site and everyone is registered and rated on their buying and selling. I've got some great rarities i.e. Killdozer stuff I had been looking for for ever....

Martyn wildly overrated.

Had he not had the luxury of batting down the order in arguably the greatest team of all time and had a modicum of psychological pressure and actual responsibility on his hands he'd be the Australian Graeme Hick.

If only the likes of Martin Love had 20% of his chances.

Martyn spent a lot of time at 4.

You could probably give Hussey his spot but nobody else gets close unless you sneak Border in on the back of half a season in the time frame.

And Hussey benefitted far more than Martyn from being allowed to stay down the order.

Plus I just love Martyn

Of the current bowlers, Siddle is probably the closest, and Harris would probably be in there if he could stay on the park. The one's I listed are way ahead though

Shows how much we really have been struggling in recent times. Siddle is as average as they come.

So I basically don't watch channel 9 except when there's cricket on. An ad tells me there's a Schapelle Corby miniseries coming up.

Oh, Australian television. Never change.

Man poor MacGill...

What about the wicketkeeper who couldn't get a game because of Ghilchrist? I don't remember his name.

Ummm not sure who you are thinking of

I know tim zoehrer couldnt get a game because of healy

and then gilly came and no one was as good as him even when he was in poor form

there was haddin coming up

 

[Power Raid]

Border opening?

a batsmen style better suited to opening or first drop

hussey and border could be swapped around in the order but certainly not replaced by the like of a langer or other

Wade Seccombe?

Darren Berry?

Phil Emery?

 

[BIG MATTY WHITE]

Pre warne retirement his bowling figures were phenomenal

hence why had to put him in

 

[powermacs]

Wade Seccombe?

Darren Berry?

Phil Emery?

Matt Campbell from WA I'd think.

A bit more from Fire in Babylon

Tony Greig's big mouth and his "make them grovel" comment was not smart. Look at poor old Brian close at 2:10.

[spookism]

I know tim zoehrer couldnt get a game because of healy

And because he was a complete and utter campaigner

Edit: I also think the keeper was Phil Emery.

Just the other day a girl a work was worried because her son was busted googling lick my hairy balls.

Problem being he is only ten.

She was worried because she didn't think he would have hairy balls yet. I said, in my best Eddie Dingle voice, "it could be worse, he could be googling I'd like to lick hairy balls" she agreed with me.

Moral of the story is Ian Healy can lick my hairy balls the cheating piece of shit.

Darren Berry, Warne had a massive chip on his shoulder for years because they picked Gilly over his mate.

I heard on the news that Nelson Mandela's funeral will be attended by overseas dignitaries Prince Charles and Oprah Winfrey.

Hey tribey West Ham co-owner David Sullivan would not have spent a club-record £15m on Andy Carroll had he known the striker would be out so long through injury.
