Get sent to brookvale to do a pick up at this time of the day. M2 is already a carpark.

Racking up the overtime in my last week of casual rates ($33p/h)

Get sent to brookvale

Commiserations

 

[Bazal]

Seriously Siddle and Hilfy...Steyn is a tail ender. BOUNCE HIM

 

[Dani]

This is balls.

 

[Jason Maher]

If only we had Pattinson...

 

[BunniesMan]

The great wall of Faf.

But still, Siddle proved himself as a lionhearted champion today.

 

[Bazal]

If Siddle had the talent to match his heart he'd be the best bowler in the world....much respect for his effort today. I just wish he could swing/seam the thing more regularly. I wonder, purely out of interest, if his converting to veganism contributed to how buggered he was at the end of the day?

All I can say is, maybe the Cummins and Pattinson sagas will teach CA that having these young quicks limited in what they can and can't bowl, even in shield cricket, is a f**king stupid idea....

 

[BunniesMan]

Him converting to veganism contributed to him being able to bowl that much. A couple years ago he was buggered doing half as much.

 

[Bazal]

No, him losing about 15kg did that...probably a lot more to do with him giving up the drink and all that rubbish food. Veganism helped, but I wonder how it's affected his stamina is all...I'm honestly shocked any pro athlete is a vegan

 

[BunniesMan]

You can get all the energy you need from a vegan diet if you have a proper vegan diet. And as a professional athlete I'm sure he has access to all the experts and advice necessary to do it properly. He'd get all his protein, iron etc.

he seemed depleted by the end of today

and now Johnson has been added to our 3rd test squad

if he's playing, I'm not watching it

 

[Bazal]

Jesus Christ really? What the hell is wrong with the idiots that pick this side?

 

[Twizzle]

they said Johnson was added as 14th man but they dont mention Watson and surey Quiney should go

Starc was 12th man so you would think Watson is in the squad as 13th and maybe they haven't decided on his fitness yet

 

[WOTBEH]

how do I delete my thread?

 

[Twizzle]

you cant

 

[Twizzle]

Quiney gorne

 

[WOTBEH]

y not

 

[Bazal]

Hastings? WTF?

Surely the attack from that is Siddle, Starc, Hilfenhaus/Hazelwood/Lyon....

he seemed depleted by the end of today

He was depleted because he bowled an extraordinary amount of overs. Something he never could have done 3 years ago.
