Vale Shane Warne

Not going to shy away from saying I feel like the jabs are playing a role in these unexpected losses

RIP Warnie 🕊

Seriously? Not being on a ventilator for covid-19, diagnosis of heart disease, cigarettes, and a terrible diet?

Vaccines causing myocarditis on its own is enough, yes seriously, many people should not be having it

There are lots of threads about the place for this sort of discussion but this ain't one of them. Gracias.

Think that build up before his 700th sums up how the crowds felt about him.

I was lucky enough to be there sitting on the bottom level of the Ponsford Stand.
The roar of the crowd was deafening.
There was also a huge roar when the crowd heard that England was batting.
Amazing day.

I watched it through an opiated haze having had my ruptured appendix removed a couple of days prior.

Family history of heart disease. And heart disease himself.

So with a family history of CVD, he smoked, drank, partied, ate crap. Sad 'life' choice for his family.

As iconic as the Gatting ball was, it was the dismissal of KP in the Amazing Adelaide test I remember the most:

1999WC semi (rightly) is being brought up a lot as a great Warne performance. But it gets somewhat forgotten that he put in a very similar game in the previous WC semi against WI. The match played out the same - Australia only made a modest total in the first innings (207), WI’s chase was going very smoothly (2/165 at one stage with enough time to easily get the remaining runs). Warne turned the match and pulled a win out of nowhere. Given the disappointment of the final this has been mostly forgotten.

Did anyone watch remembering shane warne on Foxtel the Allan Border interview? has AB got parkinson's disease? he looked like M J Fox could not keep his head still

It’s basically Australian culture, isn’t it?

He lived life to the fullest

I was quite young at the time but I remembered that West Indian team being a very good team. This was based off my memory of the 95/96 tri nations series. I had a look at this game on YouTube and Australia really shouldn't have won that game. Warne got a massive breakthrough on his first delivery, it wasn't a great delivery and was a terrible shot but a breakthroug, later on he really turned it on. Worth a watch

 

[Drunkcat]

Very sad to lose a close friend. Its all been a bit of a shock really.

That said, you can't like your whole life like a teenager. Drink, smoke, eat crap food, weight yoyoing.

He was a heart attack waiting to happen, & it did.

But i say do what you love and stuff it, you don't know what's around the corner, he lived about 10 peoples lives

Who knows really , but Warnie recently was seeing his Doctor re chest pains and breathlessness so unfortunately everything went bad before improvements could be made .

So pleased the MCG stand will be named in his honour had an amazing career that brought great joy to all even opposition countries .

Chronic smoking ruins heart health.

The vaccine side-effects are 1in a few hundred thousand.....and you're thinking there is a cluster within the cricketing community.? No.

It's not a well known fact but a science study has been done to try and replicate the side effects. It's been argued that inadvertent injection into a vein because of failure to aspirate is the cause. The study was with humanised mice some of which had injections of vaccine in veins and others in muscle tissue. The results showed that those with injections in vein demonstrated the exact same adverse complications. Of course governments everywhere wouldn't want the population to know this because of legal implications.

OMG.... some people just can't help themselves...

I imagined - a few pages up - that his strange dieting habits may have played a part. And I see now that his manager is on the same wavelength saying Warnie had just been on a two-week diet of only drinking herbal tea.

Did anyone watch remembering shane warne on Foxtel the Allan Border interview? has AB got parkinson's disease? he looked like M J Fox could not keep his head still

Yeah noticed it .

I think he was just generally struggling with it all , losing Marsh then Warne two close mates of his from either end if his career .
I put it down to nervousness and a coping mechanism with the stress and shock .

 

[The hands of stone]

Amongst a lot , that Chanderpaul ball is just incredible .

He did it so often you almost took it for granted at the time, watching it now we just arent going to see anything like him again.

 

[Blue1980]

Healy has form with this kind of stuff, I think he is just the kind of person who everyone tries to avoid talking to at social gatherings.

Just has a very dour vibe about him.

I wouldn’t say that, sometimes people don’t always have the perfect words to say in these situations.

I saw heals on fox yesterday and can tell he’s hurting as much as any of the other players over this.

Can’t tv let these people grieve and do things later, sheesh

 

[Blue1980]

I have heard this a lot here about his commentary. Why was it bad or disliked?

Overanalysis? Boring? Know-it-ally? Boys Clubby?

I've never heard his commentary but guessing it would be a bit like what Dermot Brereton is with footy. Which is all of the above.

Well I liked a lot of Warney’s commentary, he could sometimes go off track, bang on about one issue endlessly etc but overall he kept me interested and entertained.

I like Dermie as a commentator too, sometimes just need others in the box with them to keep them on the straight and narrow.

 

[Blue1980]

I think maybe one of the issues was if a captain didnt have a slip he would mention it, then continue to mention it for an hour. He also would just get completely side tracked an go on a tangent for an hour. He wasnt like Dermie with the arrogance, more so like he would forget he was on tv and was just chatting with his mates at the pub.

Which could sometimes be charming but also irritating.

I remember with Chad sayers debut and only test, tore him to shreds about being too slow endlessly. Also his always wanting everyone to declare (which was often quite funny tbh and in light of recent events something to laugh at as a Warneyism), and his grudges against players past and present (Starc, S Waugh) could be annoying.

In spite of all that I don’t think he was ever malicious, just saw things in black and white, where in life there is usually more nuance involved, kind of like when evaluating Warnie himself.

 

[Festerz]

I'm pro vaccinations but there is a side effect with every medicine.
We will not know the full extent,we do know that atm ,some people get blood clot problems and I'm sure other side effects will surface.

How about the side effects of the disease itself?

Warnie had covid late last year and although he recovered from the immediate effects of the disease, it's long lasting effects on the cardio vascular system have been well documented:

Heart-disease risk soars after COVID — even with a mild case

Massive study shows a long-term, substantial rise in risk of cardiovascular disease, including heart attack and stroke, after a SARS-CoV-2 infection.

www.nature.com

But let's just let the medical profession look into the causes of Warnie's sad death eh. And in their own time using science rather than tabloid speculation.

It is fricken disgrace that within hours of his passing Warnie's tragic early death has been hijacked by anti vax nutters such as that utter self obsessed loon Pete feckin Evans as a way to promote their utter non-science BS.

Give it a rest in this thread, please.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

From Bharat's article titled Off he goes, doing a Shane Warne;

He came, he saw, he bamboozled. From start to finish. And right at the end, he did a Shane Warne. He bowled us round our legs. And all we could do was like Mike Gatting stand in shock and awe with our mouths agape.

 

[Freezin]

Wonder if Warnie threw off a Pulmonary Embolism(PE)? Recent long haul flight and with a multitude of CVD risk factors.....sad to think a fella who loved being around folk 24/7, dying in the circumstances he did.... hopefully it was quick and he didn't know too much about it......wouldn't of wanted the King to suffer

I assumed he was abit drunk, said he'd been drinking.

Steve Waugh was the only major falling out I didn't agree with, he just for whatever reason wouldn't let it go, to bring it in 2019 publicly saying he "hated" Steve Waugh was just wrong.
