They'll be disappointed says Captain Obvious Clarke.

 

[Bazal]

Hazelwood should bowl well here.

Suits him and Mennie perfectly tbh. Mennie isn't a one day players arsehole but he's a very good long form bowler

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

You just can't accept we were outplayed by a far better performance. But then you're a troll

We got rolled for 85 before tea mate, without their best bowler playing.

I couldn't give a flying f**k how good they were, that's deplorable.

lol

you're the dick making excuses

The pitch did a little and the bowling was very good but there are no excuses for getting rick rolled for under 100 in 30 odd overs.

Funny, I saw their best bowler take five wickets....We didn't play well, they played outstandingly well. Simple as that

 

[Bazal]

lol

Yes, because being the team that was easily outperformed is an excuse. Have you ever been tested for Downs syndrome?

Yep the players are what they are.

It's time for those who run australian cricket to be under the spotlight
Edit

I quoted the wrong post lol itwas supposed to be hineyrulz last post

I know they did. That doesn't change the fact that we were absolute dog shit and showed zero fight, apart from Smith.

Are you geniused? Or just have CA's big commercially interested dick in your mouth.

I can't tell.

 

[Pete Cash]

In bazals defense the rsa was very good. i understand his point

But its a big problem that hasnt been resolved. its not rocket science just bat like smith did

 

[AlwaysGreen]

How is that a half chance giggles?

 

[hineyrulz]

Problem with only defending 85 runs you can only have so many slips.

 

[T-Boon]

It's all about T20 and those Benjamin's baby1!!


Treating the Sheffield Shield like garbage is just one of a number of problems with Aussie cricket.

I remember Ian Chappell use to talk about having summer every 3 or 4 years where we don't play any test cricket. Our best players just play a full season of shield cricket. That doesn't sound as crazy to me as it use to.

You could have a two test summer (Boxing day and New years) then the remainder of the summer play shield and T20. The later for $$. Try to get Nine or ABC cover the evening sessions of the day night shield.

If the summer is australia collapsing and KP commentating nine is going to be up on human rights violations at the Hague by February

What part of "we didn't play well" is difficult for you to understand? I actually understand that South Africa deserve all the credit for how they played, which was brilliant, instead of moping around about how it was all a product of CA and their commercial interest and T20 and modern batting and that's the reason we got rolled. That doesn't mean I'm defending the way we played, you complete and utter hazelnut.

 

[gUt]

Watson's usual 40 at the top is looking better and better

 

[umina panther]

Unbelievable performance from South Africa, they would have ripped through any side in the world this morning. One of the best bowling performances I've seen in quite a few years.

Gotta pick ourselves up and bowl that well ourselves.

Nonsense. all we needed was 2 Smiffy's

 

[Bazal]

Problem with only defending 85 runs you can only have so many slips.

f**k it, I'd just attack. What have we really got to lose? We need 3 or 4 quick wickets, might as well go all out at them at this point

 

[T-Boon]

Warnie will be finding a way to blame Smith for that debacle.

 

[Pete Cash]

Another problem is that haze and starc just resort to bowling wicket taking balls in these situations

Least they did in england

I mean i cant blame the bowlers its a difficult job to defend <100
