    What old 90's games would you like to see remade?

    Oh and I haven't played a cricket game as good (or indeed, as fun) as EA Cricket 97: Ashes Tour Edition. You could actually be bothered to bowl in a 50 over in that game, because it didn't take three minutes between deliveries like games seem to nowadays.

    What old 90's games would you like to see remade?

    Definitely 'Road Rash'. Still play it on the PC occasionally, that was a f**king fun game. If it still worked, I'd play Indy Car Racing II as well. I miss games that you could completely customise (eg in this one you had a paint shop, and could edit drivers/cars/teams and the like).

    Cricket Ratings

    One is 'average audience', the other is 'reach' (around).

    How well will Souths do in 2012

    On a ratio of cash spent to on-field performance, we're probably a worse outfit. At least in the old days, expectations were realistic. And re 2002, there was definitely no suggestion of a premiership, but people were definitely suggesting top eight.

    How well will Souths do in 2012

    Yeah I'm not a Souths fan Bunniesgimp, which is only why there's a photo of me with Phac at the SCG on my profile. Ironically, it was after another belting at the hands of the Tigpies...

    How well will Souths do in 2012

    ...and I think if more Souths fans actually had a realistic expectation of our standing as a club and ability as a football team, rather than the mongs that shout "twenny premierships" or "merger scum" to opposition fans, there wouldn't have been a need for five threads taking the piss.

    How well will Souths do in 2012

    I make no apologies about being a realist, rather than flog myself silly about how good our chances are this season, and how this is our year, just like everyone said before we bombed out in 1996/1997/2002/2007/2010/2011. Unfortunately the last 25 years of supporting Souths has made me bitter...

    Great bowlers or terrible batsmen??

    I was very impressed with Phil Anders when we played the Saffers. And even Tahir was a good option — they're no substitute for a quality leg spinner. Pattinson is all class though, and really does look the future of the Aussie pace attack. Jury well and truly out on Cummins however. Starc...

    How well will Souths do in 2012

    You're kidding me right? How many rebuilding phases do we have to have? We should have made the finals every year since the Crowe/Phac consortium took over with the amount of players we've bought. Except no-one thought it'd be a good idea to buy a half-decent half or two... But hey we've got...

    9th at best... our halves are even worse than last year. And we've spent a billion dollars on another overrated back in Matt King.

    What have we done?

    And this is sums up everything wrong with the Big Bucket Beat-off — trying to create franchises without any notion of history/tradition and forcing them upon the public. Plonking teams in the middle of nowhere and giving them 'catchy' names and 'wacky', non-state based colours is quite...

    Another Arsenlol statue

    You mean the team that has scored an average of three goals a game, and 14 more goals in total than the next best? :fist:

    Willie Mason to be a Tomato Farmer..??

    Most definitely! Wow.

    Willie Mason to be a Tomato Farmer..??

    Mason proving to all and sundry just how much he is not missed in the NRL. I'd stop going to 50uff$ games if that charlatan signed for us.

    Gem of a deal for fans

    The standard of coverage is much better, and the commentary box isn't full of antique f**kwits. Plus, it's means more work for me... :)
