2nd Test: Australia v NZ at MCG, Dec 26-30 2019

[Bazal]

That Kylie song is about as good as this deck.

You'd still go there but

 

[hineyrulz]

You'd still go there but

Kylie not the deck.

 

[JJ]

Warnie explains the rules

Of course the counter points are Beer, Berry, 2/20, S Waugh... the list goes on

 

[JJ]

Both times he clearly made an effort to move out of the way. Evasive action doesn't have to be a big, obvious duck or sway. Hardly an earth shattering call but you've gotta get the basics right

Sure but surely evasive action has to involve evasion and and action?

The contrast with everything else Smith does probably doesn’t help him

Imo Llong got it right, he’s been umpiring long enough that it was bound to happen

 

[Front-Rower]

Test cricket at its best. Finally seeing a touring team willing to stick it up us is fantastic.

 

[Twizzle]

Poor stuff Burns.

that really should have hit him on the pads, maybe he still would have been out but there is no excuse for having such a huge gap between bat and pad at this level, he is not an international quality opener

 

[JJ]

he is not an international quality opener

There aren’t many around atm

 

[roofromoz]

Neither.

This was infinitely better.

 

[Front-Rower]

Fox Cricket should be renamed Fox Warne what a w**k...

 

[blaza88z]

Neither.

This was infinitely better.

Seeing blokes catch like that gives me chills because that's exactly how you pop your shoulder

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Nigel has cost us 7 runs.

The two Smith dead balls and not penalising Boult 5 runs for fake fielding in follow through.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Fox Cricket should be renamed Fox Warne what a w**k...

Warne is such an egotistical merkin.

Such a FIGJAM.

 

[hineyrulz]

Warne Jizz levels critical!!

 

[JJ]

Warne, the greatest living Australian?

He votes yes!

 

[hineyrulz]

“Where Gary Tablett flew so high and he killed a girl”

 

[hineyrulz]

Surely Wagner could bowl another 80 overs straight????

 

[Bazal]

Um....it hit the stumps?

If he was out LBW you'd be here giving it to him as well. We get it, you've got an issue with the bloke.

Not a great shot, but it was a very good ball and his career so far suggest he most certainly is more of an international standard opener than anyone else we've used alongside Warner since Rogers retired.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Warne is such an egotistical merkin.

Such a FIGJAM.

Great, once in a lifetime bowler. Absolute tosser of a human being.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Watching the TV from a distance, Lamb Shank now looks identical to Smith when he bats

 

[Haffa]

Move this test to the Gabba or the SCG. Reduce the Victorian wankfest.
