Semi Finals

[PY]

is this technically a choke?

More like a throttling tbh.

 

[pasag]

Haha, can't wait to write the match report for this.

 

[Johnners]

McGrath

 

[Jono]

is this technically a choke?

Yes, because as superior as Australia are, SA aren't this crap. They are playing crap because of the occasion.

 

[Matt79]

And Gibbs should be gone!!!

EDIT: And nearly to 1st slip next ball!!

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Tait should've made it 6/27.

Ahahaha.

 

[nightprowler10]

[simmy]

Oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi
See us ride out of the grandstand
On your colour TV screen
Out for all the trophies to get
If you know what we mean
Champs to the left of me
And champs to the right
Ain't got no gun
Ain't got no knife
But don't you start no fight

CHORUS:
'Cause we're the Ozzies, we're dynamite
The Ozzies and w'll win the fight
The Ozzies I'm a power load
The Ozzies watch us explode

We're dirty, mean and mighty unclean
We're all wanted men
World crick team number one
Understand?

So lock up your emotions
Lock up your hopes
Lock up your back dreams
And run for your robes
The men are back in town
Don't you mess us 'round

CHORUS:
'Cause we're the Ozzies, we're dynamite
The Ozzies and w'll win the fight
The Ozzies I'm a power load
The Ozzies WATCH US EXPLODE!


Serious questions:
Is this bermuda in disguise or really South Africa?
Will the Proteas score past 50?

 

[pasag]

Bucknor wtf? Should be 6/26.

 

[silentstriker]

SS - right so often. We always debate who is greater - Warne or Murali - I would argue McGrath is better than both of them, given the era, the size of grounds, the pitches, bat technology, etc. One of the all time greats.

The all time great actually.

 

[PY]

HUGE nick.

One flies through the second slip, why only one slip? Madness.

dont you have to be in a somewhat winning position to choke, I dont have words to describe this. Smith deserves to be sacked and Kallis deserves the Martyn treatment for their shots.

Indeed

 

[PY]

Choking implies an action by yourself, throttling implies a violent, brutal act by another entity.

Thanks for ruining the song for me.

Gibbs might "edge" his way to a 50 here.
