"will there actually be footy on it this year?" Healy to Slater

Nice to see nein finally promoting the shit out of the footy..

...and SO THEY SHOULD, rather then promote a rival product that they don't have the rights to. They're promoting the NRL season, but it's taken an awfully long time.

Another scrub gone

Send these pricks home in body bags.

don't think i have ever seen 9 promote the Footy in their cricket coverage in previous years

usually just crap shows

 

[skeepe]

I'm not sure why I hate Shane Watson. But i do. So very, very much.

Good player though.

 

[undertaker]

India lose another wicket. 5 to go, before they move one step closer to going back home. They really do have to win tonight, as I cannot see them beating Sri Lanka with a bonus point.

Give them their tandoori chicken whilst they're at it.

 

[skeepe]

I'm certain that one was out too. No appeal though.

 

[undertaker]

Man, Watson has bowled well in his comeback match. He'll definitely have to bat down the order when he's back in the test side, as the team needs to get more value from his bowling.

 

[skeepe]

Two maidens in a row. In a power play.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

We've definitely missed Watson's bowling...

 

[skeepe]

They stopped the game for Dhoni to take a shit :lol:

So have ABC Radio for that matter. In fact it prompted a Victorian to text in saying knock it off.

I'm not a fan of him either, even when he's doing well. I think it's because you know that even though he acts tough he's as soft as a pillow. Still 100% more likable than anything india has to offer.

Very good player when he's in form, but will NEVER be the test captain due to his temperament and attitude (not to mention he's the same age as Clarke). Too many incidents I've seen from him in the past that suggest this, most notably on the recent Sri Lankan tour when he mouthed off at Jayawardene after he stood his ground when Clarke took a catch, and also the overcelebration when he got Chris Gayle out in Perth. It just made him look very stupid. Not only is he injury prone, but regarding temperament, he will always be categorised alongside the likes of M Waugh/Blewett/Hooper/Kambli - someone who has a lot of natural talent, but lack of motivation and discipline being the major reason why his career statistics are not an accurate reflection of his talent.

Like many of the players who debuted during the Ponting captaincy era, he would've NEVER got a start if he was playing during the Border/Taylor/S Waugh years.

 

[skeepe]

f**king hell Watson. Should have held that.

 

[undertaker]

Dhoni 2 from 21 balls....and dropped as I type. Will Dhoni make Australia pay for that?

 

[aussies1st]

Still looking for that slip catcher.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

solid test match batting by Dhoni
