Dont you mean Kim cry baby?

Yes, he didn't do himself any favours near the end did he. I've always felt sorry for him. He loved the Baggy Green and desperately wanted to do well as captain, but wasn't up to the situation he was given. I suspect we really needed a hard nosed bloke like ChappellI - but that wasn't going to happen was it. I too had a low opinion of Huges until recently, then I heard him commentating and talking about those years. All of a sudden, it was easy to respect someone who failed to handle the poisonned chalic he was given.

Cheers

Bloody Dizzy dropped this bloke on about 12 . are they doing ??? :eek:

[craigb]

Time for Warney to finally get that test hundred I think

Looks like 1 all tonight.

[Gumby]

Mate, don't even think about it. I'm so ****** off with some of those blokes. :mad: I knew I should have had a lazy $50 on the poms at the $5 on offer !
Could have bought a nice new tool with the winnings.

NOT HAPPY JAN!

B. H. HAVE YOU SEEN THE SCORE.

YOUR LOT ARE AS BAD AS OURS.

I reckon we should have a team picked from the forums.

Back on line in around 3 hours.

[Zed]

Ha!!! at last the poms win, good on 'em too.

best thing about it was that shame worn got himself out.

[craigb]

Well played Warney
Well played Lee
Well Played Kasprowizcs
Well played Flintoff

The rest of you have got some explaining to do.

Yes I'm talking to you Hayden.
I'm particularly talking to you Martin. You've learnt nothing since Sydney in '94. That cost you 8 years out of the test side, remember?

Gilly, we love to see you playing your natural game, but is it too much too ask that you put up the shutters when it's ten minutes to stumps?

Katitch? Well I'm no fan of Symonds but would he have done a better job?

All you batters, get yourselves in to the room full of mirrors and have a good long geek at yourselves.

The only positive thing about this game (and why the hell would you put them in Ponting?) is it means it's game on for the rest of the series.

Disgruntled of Chatswood

I did my bit for England, I switched the TV on with only 5 runs needed and immediately switched off again (honest) and it did the trick.

[Grunt]

Hang on we lost by 2 runs. I don't think it was just the batters.

I actually think we lost because we won the toss and fielded first. We should have put the pressure on with the bat to start with.

The bowlers in the first innings were ordinary. They score more than 5 runs an over. In the main, the England batters got themselves out rather than great bowling.

Both Martin and Katich made 50s in the first test. Hayden is out of form.

Good game. Makes the rest of the series a little more interesting.

What ???

2 bleeding runs ???

I haven't bothered to check but if we lost by 2 measly bloody runs then I'm not a hppy chap. I agree with Distguntled of Chatswood. :mad:

[kiwigeo]

Sorry to trouble you guys but which cricket game is everyone talking about???

[bitingmidge]

Thanks for the update chaps!

Cricket news is a bit scarce in Singers,

Cheers,

[fxst]

give ya a greenie Craigb I agree with all of your comments ...top order batsman are supposed to bat and win and not leave it to the bowlers who already did their job.

[Gingermick]

To only have lost by 2 tells me the Englands bowlers bowled poorly on he last day. No patience, and ...leaving the Anthony Mundine of cricket not-out will only encourage him.
