agree about the cricket, i used to go to every boxing day test and most 1 dayers but after going to a 20/20 and 1 dayer last summer i wont go again. i dont mind a sip but i would say 35% of the crowd at limited overs matches aren't there for the cricket, it's for the grog, the perv, the ****ing mexican wave or to abuse opposition in the worst way or fight others. i was actually embarrassed at how some of the crowd abused harbajan last summer, the things coming out of their mouths was disgraceful (and i reckon harbajan is a prick by the way) but he didn't deserve some of the spite. to his credit he took it well and played up to the crowd.
i have tickets to 4 matches in jan and feb given to me by an mcc member so at least this time i'll only have to listen to the whingeing about how bradmans invincibles were the best team ever etc.
so in summary, if you intend on wearing a watermelon helmet, bringing beach balls, going just to get wiped out, going to pick fights with others because you cant handle your alcohol then ****ing stay at home you w***ers and grow fat watching it on the tv while sticking your head in a bucket of kfc or up your arse, whichever pleases you.

Agreed,I last went to a one dayer in 89/90 absolute morons with a 5 second concentration span. Haven't been to the tests since the Saffers last toured,seeing numerous punch-ups and pissed 15y/olds haven't been since.Sounds like numerous Neil Harvey types in the members:p

What's worse is there were 2 games that day and only 1 live sporting event on Fox Sports that arvo/evening.They could've shown at least 1 of the games.

Good on SEN for covering it :thumbsu:

i went to the victory game last week vs sydney fc courtesy of some tickets i won on dorans show, got to say i really enjoyed it, much more than i thought i would.
i rang james up on the way home and said this to him but also offered some comments r.e. the victory members behind the goals. i mentioned that they let themselves down by letting off the flare before the game had started and also had the stupidity to hold up a massive banner saying "cops are bastards" (how ****ing stupid is this, do they think it will not be seen?)
james said that we couldn't be sure that it was victory members that let off the flare as he didn't see it (it went off right in the middle of the assembled cheersquad, just behind said banner above) and also that he didn't see the banner so he couldn't comment. what sort of a fan is he again? went on to defend some of the cheersquad antics as being "enthusiastic" and how the press overreact at crowd behaviour in comparison to afl games, could be right but in 30 years of going to afl games i've yet to see a flare (let alone 2 let off that night) be let off.
i did enjoy the night and will probably end up going again

Glad you enjoyed the game!

No surprise that James didn't go on to bag them, he is quite good friends with a lot of people in the North Terrace.

For the most part the North Terrace do a wonderful job providing the atmosphere, but they let themselves down with the flares and protest banners every week. To their credit, that was the first flare they have let off in well over a year. They seem to have all but kicked that out of the Terrace.

They didn't show it as they have a contractual arrangement with Ch9 that Foxtel can't show domestic games while there is a test or one day international involving Australia being played at home. SEN are SHIThouse when doing the cricket anyway, Huddo is a tool and starts screaming when ever a single is knocked down to long on. He doesn't even know field placements. It's embarrassing.

You obviously didn't hear Doran commentate cricket last year. Makes Huddo seem like Ian Chappell.

I quite enjoyed Jason Richardson doing breakfast with Dr Turf last year when the "A team" were on holidays. Now he's back on with Matt Granland, he's gone back to being a complete yuppy knob.

nathan thompson on this morning. usually i cant stand him on any medium, but today he was refreshing. spoke his mind when admitting it was hard for ex players in the media to critique current players who are mates. he continued to say that he feels someone of his stature (180 odd games) commenting on say a star of the game is a bit odd.....BUT someone like buckley (legend) or a 300 game player can do it easier.

In saying this I thought one of the key fundamentals of media work was to report without fear or favour.
 
Is it James Willoughby on now, I don't know. But he knows nothing about tennis if he reckons that Andy Murray has no chance at winning a slam event this year.
