Hope it pisses down!

Bummer with Duminy. Don't think they'll ever let players do that again.

Yeah yeah, I feel for him...especially after clown Bowden doesn't give LBW's! I feel for him, but I aint disappointed that he is out of this test match!

listening to the interview with our high performance coach during the cricket show, it sounds like Starc was rotated

its not just the 4 overs he bowls in all the T/20 stuff he's been playing, its the days and weeks in the nets in the lead up so I guess that makes a bit of sense when you consider what just happened to Cummings

pissed down all nite up here and is expected to go all day and into tomorrow, cant see much happening today

Is that the high performance Yawnion Tard???? WTF would he know about fast bowling????

How about we just pick the best f**king team???? That too much to ask??? Playing the first test of the summer against the no 1 team in the world and we are rotating players already??? FMD!!!

I've been saying this for years a bunch of random guys from your local pub could pick and manage the Aussie side better than the Tards running the show the last 5 or 6 years.

Starc a must for Adelaide. They will drop Pattinson cause it will be his turn to be roatated as he is young

We haven't had that much rain mate, it's not raining at my joint ATM and i'm about 10km from the Gabba. So we may get some cricket today.

 

[TheParraboy]

ahhh ok, thanks christ for that then, as I have weekend off work

was about to go to the pub and pick the 2nd test side too

the forecast is for rain all day and the update from the Gabba was rain all day as well but it seems to dodge alot of rain for some reason

I been to the Gabba when it has rained for most of the day elsewhere but alot of it seems to miss the Gabba

There was light rain during my run this morning (Ferny Grove - Mitchelton area, which is about 10-15km NW of the Gabba) No heavy stuff at all. But the radar shows the area around Gabba to be okay right now. Lets hope they can start play and if it rains, it is only light stuff so they can continue play through it.

If we lose play today, we should make up for it the next three days. They look beaut! Any rain tomorrow will be gone before play starts.

no cricket this morning due to rain, maybe get some play later today

If play does get washed out we do have some consolation - F Troop > Peter Siddle.

I want cricket! I feel the anxiousness coming back in anticipation of play

 

[Twizzle]

f**king Gilligan's Island, forgot how bad it actually is

 

[TheParraboy]

f**king Gilligan's Island, forgot how bad it actually is

why wouldnt they show a classic test from the past between SA v Aust during these delays?

 

[Twizzle]

cuz it might be the one where they bowled us out for 47
