:lol: very true, your crazy obsession with New Zealanders and hate of anything outside of NSW does provide great comedy.

:lol: must irk him that the 'thrashing' of India was on the back of two Victorians, two Tasmanians (and a transplanted NSW'man) and a West Australian!!

The depth is starting to build again..

Watson,Cummins,Harris & Johnson:sarcasm: are all due back from injury over various stages of the next 6 months,& kids like Mitchell Marsh are starting to find their feet at 1st class level..

We need our young batsmen to start to show some more consistency,as well as working on flaws in their game so as to compliment the outstanding young bowling talent we have at the moment..

The future looks a lot brighter than it did this time last year..

I'm okay guys, thanks for the concern, I kept the faith right up until de Villiers got out, then it was all gone and we were done and dusted. I said we had to no do anything stupid, and we did plenty of stupid, especially the Amla run out which I still can't believe. I started feeling really nervous after that and started compiling statistics to calm my nerves.

The good thing to calm out of this test is Prince may be dropped. I was thinking it should be Boucher's time too, but that doesn't look like happening. I find it very hard to forgive him for the way he bungled a regulation catch off Sangakkara when he was on 3. He could have redeemed himself with the bat, but he did not and he has been useless with the bat for some time. He is getting slower with the gloves too. I have loved him for years, but now I think it is time to go Boucher. I was joking with a friend I was watching with last night that he will be my scapegoat for everything, but Kallis and the two openers really deserve some blame too. That said, I think we should persist with Rudolph and someone needs to bitch slap Smith.

oh and "Durban hoodoo" cop out. The performance was weird and hard to explain, but they are better players and a better team and should have done better. They need to take a good hard look at themselves and learn to play at home because this loss was embarrassing.
