Cricket Crap

Any word on when jade will be charged with assault?

Just finished watching the AB 3 part special for the second time. What a f**king legend Allan Border is. Make no mistake any of you young blokes around here who never saw him play and lead his team - this guy, along with Bob Simpson, turned Australian cricket from a joke circa 1986 into a dominant juggernaut from basically 1989 onwards...

Gave himself a 6 out of 10 as a player/captain.... Humble in the extreme, he's an 8.5 minimum. No question.

He played in arguably the toughest era for batting, the pitches weren’t great and then you had the Windies. Let alone all the other world class bowlers around at the time. He’d average 60 in this weak era.

f**k me, if i have to hear above Michael Clarke and his latest anorexic blonde one more time I may be forced to do something rash.

What’s the go with Clarke’s head? He looks like he’s melting.

What do you mean

Still got a luscious set of locks which makes my urge to throttle him justified.

Get a Ricky Stuart Tattoo?

Get a Ricky Stuart Tattoo?

Yep. Got it planned already, it will be an overhead projection of Ricky boxing a weak gutted dog.

Best of luck to him with whatever comes next. Been a great limited overs player for a long time.
Only BBL club he played for that he couldn't win a title with were the Hurricanes I believe.
Helluva strike rate.

The best thing to come out of the clarke saga is the BCCI could cancel his commentary stint so we don't have to listen to his dribble in India.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

He'll always be Feathers to me.

Lance Morris loves being that 'intimidating' fast bowler, and it's earned him a nickname he can't shake

From Jeff Thomson to Brett Lee and Shaun Tait, Australian cricket fans have an obsession with lightning-fast pace bowlers, now emerging quick Lance Morris is making his mark on the game.

I have absolutely no idea what he’s talking about.

“I am not doing things to please absolutely everyone. Steve Jobs said he would go and sell ice cream if he wanted to do that.’’

Cummins is a really classy dude tbh.

He's also right. The idea of a massive energy company pulling a massive exposure deal based on one bloke is hilarious. And not everyone who takes a plane or drives a car somewhere is a hypocrite for also having environmental sympathies. That's just morons stuck in a mythical black vs white 'sport and politics don't mix' mentality. He's handled some really dumb trolls very well

Forget the dumb trolls, look at it from Alintas viewpoint

That one bloke is the captain, who is also a 'really classy dude' that you want representing your brand, but he decided to pull out of your advertising, and voiced concerns about you as their sponsor

Cummins expressed his reservations to Cricket Australia about its sponsorship deal with Alinta Energy on the eve of the Test summer

Not sure it was the only reason for their withdrawal, but it had to play some part

It's highly unlikely for a successful business to care about that. The logo is on every jersey and all over the coverage. Yeah Cummins is a good get for the ads but has anyone ever chosen any product based on the wooden performance of a cricketer in the ad?

But also, look at the comments of any story about it. Every deadshit and his dog is backing Alinta.

It's madness but somehow they had nothing but positive press out of it.

Atlinta was also the one who got involved and backed CA in desperate times so they should be grateful for them somewhat if you ask me.
