Superthread LXXIII: Honouring He Who Shall Not Be Named

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

2/10 off the first over, test match could be over by the end of the day at this rate...

 

[Bazal]

I think I'll move onto shots...after the two days I've had, and this fiasco....f**k me dead

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

5/24, much better!

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

You've got to be f**king kidding me.

 

[Misanthrope]

I'm glad I don't care about cricket. I get enough bitter disappointment out of being a NSW, Newcastle Knights, Newcastle Jets, and West Ham fan.

[Drew-Sta]

Do we know exactly why they're so shit?

 

[Twizzle]

green top mate, very hard to bat on

 

[Drew-Sta]

Yes, but so hard you can't make it to 100?!

 

[Bazal]

Nothing to do with the wicket. Going hard at the ball, lacking patience, not allowing time to get in on a typical English wicket. The ball comes on slower and moves, you can't throw your hands through the line lack Clarke did and you can't push at it out in front of your body. You need to wait and play later than in Australia.

f**k the cricket.. I'm riding high on my touch footy team..

killed it tonight, one of our best games all season, puts us into the finals next week..

personally managed to turn the clock back about 7 years, got a hat trick including a couple of in and aways from about halfway..

/end brag

 

[Red Bear]

what a shitshow

SMarsh, Clarke and Voges dismissals in particular.

 

[Skinner]

2/10 off the first over, test match could be over by the end of the day at this rate...

and this was said in jest

 

[Skinner]

green top mate, very hard to bat on

Yes, it was a tad green, but surely not to that extent

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

England don't seem to be having too many issues...

 

[Twizzle]

Joe Root didn't, the rest of them didn't do so well.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Mornin'.
