OT-Cricket 2015/2016

[Gary Gutful]

I feel lucky to have lived the time i have. Got to enjoy some great players. Good time to be growing up, late 70s, 80s, 90s

Haircuts were f**ken stupid though.

 

[Twizzle]

Yeh the Windies have been very disappointing however I have watched most of it.

Should be a pretty good series against the Kiwis over the ditch after the ODI series against India starting next week.

 

[Twizzle]

Haircuts were f**ken stupid though.

Never bothered me, never had mine cut

 

[Avenger]

I don't think she f**ken did. That's why it is a problem.

I don't understand why you would take this approach with Gayle but then have a problem with Jennings. Not only is it inconsistency bordering on schizophrenia, you are actually defending the bigger grub!

Keep your shirt on, I'm joking mate. However it is still an over reaction from our lefty media.

Some female news reporter accused Gayle of flashing his willy at her in last years world cup, now Gayle is suing Fairfax media because he wouldn't do such a thing.

And my reference to Caribbean sausage was in relation to this incident.

Wasn't a journo's but a support staff member for the West Indies

1. I know what it was in reference to.

2. My shirt is on (and no it doesn't have a '$ex$ells" logo on it).

3. Gayle is hardly going to come out and say it's all true and that he whipped out his jerk sausage.

4. I don't believe everything that I read. I make assessments based on all available information.

5. I reckon he is a major grub. I would take most people's word over his.

6. Plus he has a very girly voice.

Funnily enough, it's still better than watching the T20.

I am a purist like you Suit. I love my test cricket and hope it is always the prominent form of the game

BUT I must admit I am starting to warm to the BBL. it is pretty entertaining nights viewing.

 

[hineyrulz]

The BBL is a runaway success, the crowds and ratings prove this. Into its 5th year and it's just getting bigger. I'll always be test cricket first but this summer of test cricket has been the most boring in a long long time. Only decent test was Adelaide when there was something in the wicket for the bowlers and we had a contest.

 

[Twizzle]

Bit surprised to see the success of the women's T20 as well, its great for women's cricket to this this type of exposure.

 

[Bigfella]

That's what Chris Gayle said to that female staffer

 

[Gary Gutful]

Indeed.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I thought Chris was the 'staffer'

 

[Kornstar]

Went to my first game of cricket ever last night at Spotless stadium. Over 18,000 there and it was great.

I watch plenty of cricket on TV but I'm not a fan of the sun so sitting all day in the sun has never compelled me to actually attend a match.

I support the Sixers but hate going near Moore Park but a friend wanted me to go to see the Thunder so tagged along.

I don't know why people hate it (20/20) so much. It is just entertainment, that's the way I view it. I like test and ODI's too, there is room to like all 3 imo.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I love test cricket, but I don't mind T20 stuff or the BBL specifically. Be happy to go to game in a well-attended stadium. Can't stand the TV coverage....I don't like commentators yelling inanely for 3 hours.

The big advantage that T20 has got is its brevity. You can play the whole game at night. People can go after work and see the whole game, or watch at home. That all comes at a cost though...outright slogathons from the word go are not of great interest to me.

not to mention the relentless references to AFL

I think you'll find that's called 'our great game'.

 

[Twizzle]

OK, sorry

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Don't do it again or you won't be allowed into Melbourne.
