[Tipster]

Joel Wilson makes NRL refs look competent

 

[hineyrulz]

Now that’s off my chest what the f**k happened last night??? What is it with Tasmanian’s and being useless merkins in England???

 

[JJ]

England allrounder follows in Botham and Flintoff's footsteps...

Australian response - unleash Mitch Marsh and Marcus Stoinis?

 

[Danish]

So Stokes has definitely secured the New Zealander of the year award now, right?

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Australia hasn't won a cricket match since the birth of the internet,our best athlete's are now busy trolling online

 

[Tommy Smith]

Omfg I just woke up to the score. Marry me Ben Stokes.

Seriously that last wicket partnership! Highlights time.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Just saw the wasted review followed by the missed run out and the plumb lbw.

You must have all enjoyed those moments

 

[Tommy Smith]

People will call us a disgrace for being negative but yet we stayed up this late on a work day to support these f**king idiots whilst the people who call us a disgrace are busy having a luscious sleep LOL

Yep and I went to bed only to be on the victorious side and will be fresh as a daisy whilst grinning from ear to ear at work there is absolutely no justice in this world.

 

[Tommy Smith]

What makes it even more spectacular is the lack of opposition supporter joining the thread until they smell our despair.

Hello darkness my old friend

I can't function being tired at work but I've totally missed out on one of the sporting moments of a lifetime tbh. My loss...

 

[simmo1]

I went to bed when Archer got out, rather happy and content. Did I miss anything?

 

[Bazal]

Wow, Stokes.

Lmao at the "Tim Paine should have done this" or "this bowler should have done that" crowd... Fact is that is a straight up unbelievable performance from Ben Stokes. Credit where it's due.

If that little Sri Lankan fella had the best hundred of all time in South Africa, Stokes is a very, very close second.

 

[Wizardman]

Peopke are knocking the DRS system when if anything, last night showed why the system works. The DRS was designed to remove the howler, not to test the 50/50 call. We took the poor risk (Cummins review) and paid the ultimate price of it not being available for the howler. Our fault!.

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

There needs to be an investigation in to the refs

Yeah that’s an historically great performance, no question

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Bravo Enzland.

So it didn't remove the howler... which is what it was supposed to do.

Well it could have if our idiot captain would quit burning them and using it like a make a wish system.

But if we want to take it out of the players hands and allow the umpire to decide. Even that's not perfect, would Wilson have gone upstairs? Ball tracking takes a while so they can't check every appeal either.

The NFL has the coaches review, but I don't see how that could work in cricket.

50/50 reviews are retained with umpires call decisions.

If anyone can think of a fool proof system, I'd love to hear it.

 

[Hutty1986]

That went well.

 

[jargan83]

Tim Paine should be charged with treason.

 

[Bgoodorgoodatit]

Woke up and checked the score with them 9 down needing 50 odd.

Just watched the highlights and i wish I hadn’t.... unbelievable
