hahaha..bad hangover
Most unlike him to vote that way I must say.Turbinator wont be happy.
Would anyone seriously argue that Tendulkar should not be in a side like this?
If so, I personally would ignore them, TBH.
Bevan and Tendulkar should be dead-certs.
Given that he is now an English fan, I wouldn't be surprised if he feels that Nick Knight should play ahead of Tendulkar.Most unlike him to vote that way I must say.
I was expecting someone to select that option, but he was pretty much the last one I'd have guessed!
The "he shouldn't be in the side" is clearly a joke option and is only ever going to be voted for by someone as a joke.You what....what is the point of this. You are asking people for their opinions and then disregarding the ones you don't agree with.
This is a complete joke
I don't really care who voted what....Richie Benaud could vote on this, and if you didnt agree with his opinion, you would still disregard it.The "he shouldn't be in the side" is clearly a joke option and is only ever going to be voted for by someone as a joke.
You do realise who the one person so far to vote for it is, don't you? Probably the most patriotic Indian on the board, who'll probably vote for Mahendra Dhoni ahead of Adam Gilchrist when the time comes.
If Richie Benaud was so outrageous as to suggest that Sachin Tendulkar didn't make a 1990-2007 ODI side then quite frankly I would disregard his opinion and lose a fair bit of respect for him.I don't really care who voted what....Richie Benaud could vote on this, and if you didnt agree with his opinion, you would still disregard it.
But if you are going to ask for opinions on a poll, you have to take all of them into account.If Richie Benaud was so outrageous as to suggest that Sachin Tendulkar didn't make a 1990-2007 ODI side then quite frankly I would disregard his opinion and lose a fair bit of respect for him.
No, you don't, not when the "He shouldn't make the team" is quite obviously a joke option and Turbinator presumably voted for that option as a joke. He is only disregarding the opinion, if you can call it that, because it's a joke on Turbinator's behalf.But if you are going to ask for opinions on a poll, you have to take all of them into account.
If he disregards the opinions he does not agree with, why doesn't he just compile his own team
Ffs, he hasn't disregarded the opinions he doesn't agree with yet, has he? He's stated before that by and large he will form the team on the basis of the votes cast on CW, if only one person votes for a certain option then it obviously won't be regarded highly.But if you are going to ask for opinions on a poll, you have to take all of them into account.

Knowing Richard, I'd give that a definite "NO!!" answer.Richard at the end of this are you going to make it into a debate as to who would win in the match?
but he has stated that intention....If he is asking for the peoples vote, in order to get some sort of team together for an article, then he should, without question, stick with the results of said vote. But he has said that if he doesnt agree with it, he will veto it....which is a complete joke.Ffs, he hasn't disregarded the opinions he doesn't agree with yet, has he?

why is it a joke option??? Maybe some people think he isnt good enough!!!No, you don't, not when the "He shouldn't make the team" is quite obviously a joke option and Turbinator presumably voted for that option as a joke. He is only disregarding the opinion, if you can call it that, because it's a joke on Turbinator's behalf.
That's the joke. Pretty obvious to me that you are only kicking up a fuss because Richard is the one conducting the polls. Poor form.why is it a joke option??? Maybe some people think he isnt good enough!!!
Smart boy...you seem to be making alot of assumptions.That's the joke. Pretty obvious to me that you are only kicking up a fuss because Richard is the one conducting the polls. Poor form.
Read it again. He said he could veto (but would not as that would defeat the purpose) when I told him there's nothing he can do to keep Sachin from taking the opener's spot with the current vote tally. He probably shouldn't have said anything at all but he didn't really say he would veto or anything.but he has stated that intention....If he is asking for the peoples vote, in order to get some sort of team together for an article, then he should, without question, stick with the results of said vote.

It would be better if he came up with a team himself, and then a debate be struck up around that.
This all just looks to be a waste of space IMO
I must have misunderstood this comment then:Read it again.

Never mind then. Didn't know you were referring to that.I must have misunderstood this comment then:
'I'll have some element of veto-style-control over the thing'
