stupid Victorian, thats what you get for trying to be too fancy

 

[Bazal]

Hussey, after batting disgustingly for the match situation, gets bowled trying to noodle a rank full toss to third man. Disgraceful

 

[El Diablo]

Hussey fails again

can't make the step up to the big boys

back to Victoriania

Thanks Aqua duck, that`s what I meant

I think he's a good player, but I agree. He's not doing enough, and not doing what he's doing well enough. Replace him with Travis Birt IMO

 

[aussies1st]

Whoever moved Mike Hussey to 4 get him back to 6 asap. Placement is all you need to hit the boundary.

I agree, replace him with a true Victorian

LOL @ Kerry O'keefe, funniest commentator around.

What did he say? Did he make a reference to the franger on the field?

 

[aqua_duck]

When's Clarke fit again? He can come in for the Victorian,

BTW
Johnson>Hopeless

 

[Bazal]

Johnson does what Hussey and Hopes couldn't do on his 3rd delivery....hits a f*cking boundary!

 

[eddiesmith]

Very funny thread here, bag the blokes who make runs yet nothing said about the no6 from NSW who failed when he was expected to bat more than 5 overs

 

[aussies1st]

Lol a bowler showing the batters how it is done.

Obviously you meant Haddin Fails again.
Hussy wasn't batting at his fluent best there but not getting enough of the strike from hopes can have that effect.
As for Hussy failing again 3 50's in 7 innings i'd hardly call that failing. I'd have to say Haddins full of more fail than Dussy seeing in 32 innings he's only managed one more 50 than Hussy there but then again he's from NSW doesn't matter how ordianary he goes you'll ignore it.

 

[Meth]

Well deserved wicket for Duminy

Tis the way of the world.

Their player got some runs so they are happy.

Hussey could get 99 of 50 balls and they would still find something to hate about him.

 

[eddiesmith]

Lol a bowler showing the batters how it is done.

Bowled for 10, yep the entire team should have followed Johnsons lead :lol:

Although he did outscore Haddin

 

[aussies1st]

Well thats better than the Queenslander.

 

[Bazal]

Pretty sure, just personally, the "middle order being despicable" includes Haddin....however, in 80 odd deliveries, Hopes and Hussey should have scored at least 80 runs, if not 90-100. They got around 60

Johnson gone, trying to hit out after being left a sh*tload to do by Hops and Hussey

What didn't he say, then he was worried if Princess Grace was listening. More comedy gold from Skull.
