Shane Watson - 3 months of Test standard cricket in his career so far. Sack the hack!

Maxwell - Just f**k off you hopeless merkin

Hughes - Last chance, choked, hack, f**k off.

Warner - f**king hopeless on this entire tour

Cowan - Ditto

Johnson - Only good at the WACA, f**k off, and further more, lets not play anymore tests at the WACA either.

Wade - f**king hopeless, an absolute legend when it comes to charlatans

f**k me, what an abysmal tour, I would say our worst ever.

1 run to win and Dhoni is f**king around choosing a bat

if it was me, id get my gloves changed as well, ask for a drink, plus get the sightscreen attendant to move the sightscreen a couple of centimetres to the left, then take my time checking out the field placements :D

Except for the fact that he got good scores in the last 2 tests. He's going to be in the team for the Ashes and that eats you up inside because you're an idiot.

This was a Tardfest from start to finish, can't believe how low we have sunk. The selectors have to go asap.

Seriously, you need to go and suck his c**k Bunniesman. At least, if you have a mouthful of c**k, that will prevent you from coming on here.

You calling someone an idiot is like a morbidly obese person calling someone fat. Get a grip you f**ken geniused moron.

NZ-like top-order performances those....

Without Starc and Siddle's contributions things would have been pretty dire...

Guess Lyon has now confirmed he's better than Doherty? Mind you, there's a Year 10 boy that bowls left arm spin at my son's school, he plays 3rd XI... think he's also better than Doherty...

Big problem at the moment is none of Warner, Cowan, Hughes, Watson, Wade, Smith, Maxwell look terribly good test players... and that's being very kind to some of them... in fact regardless of occasional good performances Highes, Smith, Maxwell, Doherty are fortunate to have first class careers

Ahh so he's an allrounder now. Apparently loves being an allrounder too. :sarcasm:

I just gotta say about Lyons major haul in the test, figures were very impressive and no doubt he has cemented his spot, not that he has much opposition.

However, look at all his wickets, all taken from off spinners (that I saw), not one arm ball or any variation to speak of.

If he is gonna develop into a world class spinner he needs more variation. These pitches were prepared for the Indian spinners and helped him enormously, but I cant see him repeating this performance until he has the variation that the Indian spinners showed us.

Lets have a look at those last two tests
2
69
45
6
122 runs @ 30.50

From a number 3.

Lets see how that compares to say Siddle's last 4 innings
0
13
51
50
114 runs @ 28.50

Siddle not only scored twice as many fifties, he also did it with the tail, considering he's a bowler, not an all rounder, let alone being a specialist batsmen.

If averaging 30 is good for Hughes, then he can definitely f**k off.

For the entire series, Hughes scored:
14 less runs than Smith & Smith only had 4 innings to Hughes' 8
9 runs less than henriques & Henriques only had 6 innings to Hughes' 8
2 runs more than Starc & Starc only had 4 innings to Hughes' 8
8 runs more than Siddle

He choked, he's a hack, he can f**k off.

without Siddle and Starc the last two tests would have been even more embarrassing for you...

IMHO - Warner, Hughes, Smith, Wade just are not fundamentally good cricketers... on flat decks and/or at home, their deficiencies get covered up... but anyone arguing Hughes should be persevered with is likely insanse (example 1 throughout this thread)

Cowan is fundamentally sound, just not terribly talented... Watson is fundamentally a good cricketer, just a self-obsessed knob

Clarke is brilliant, but an even more self-obsessed knob... his leadership, and that of Inverarity and Arthurs should not escape the microscope - the latter two are clearly f**kwits... but I am amused at the amount of heat Ponting took - he was a better bat, a poorer strategic leader, but not a self-obsessed knob, just a bog standrad knob, who do everything to win for Australia... my impression is Clarke will do everything to win for Clarke, and I suspect it doesn't build team harmony... and again, examples of Katich (who probably still should be in the team), Martyn, and perhaps Hussey and O'Keefe might be supporting evidence...

just my 2c, again
