Your probably the most biased aussie poster I've ever encountered on these boards. In real time, even you probably would've given that out, although knowing your bias in your posts maybe not.

Would be a comeback even Lazardis would be proud of.

It shouldn't be. Do you know Symonds personally? It's petty and pathetic.

True - tell it to the BCCI.

At a vital time I meant. Not getting Symo at 6/180 or whatever it was isn't a vital time at the match.
The Dravid one was at a vital time and the Indians went nuts. We've had 2 at a very vital time.

Too right.You can't give batsmen out just because you don't like the shot or non-shot they've chosen. That wasn't going to hit.
Craig=Nostradamus?
Oh, boo hoo.

They don't even out, unless you can go back in time and change results. That's the most dire excuse ever.

i've never umpired at any senior level. Umpired once or twice at junior level, which i know is completely different. These blokes are getting paid alot of money to do a job though, and they aren't doing it.

Yes, it was absolutely at a vital time.

DWTA.
If he had been given out India probably would have rolled Australia for less then 220-250 max.

Of course it did - from 120 metres away, not 1 metre away like the keeper & close fielders, or 20 metres away where the bowler and umpire were.
In any event my comment wasn't about the decision, it was about the vociferously appealing perpetrator of the "it's not cricket to appeal when you know it's not out" comment we had after Sydney.

With the LBWS having umpired I can understand that there are times where it's hard to know the exact height of a ball and an LBW decision just going over the stumps like Hussey is understandable that an umpire would give it out.
I just don't understand how Cricket Umpires don't realize a batsmen has hit the ball. I know in the Cricket I've umpired the bowlers have been slower and the game is slightly less important, but still I can't believe it.
Umpires should go back to the olden days and stay further from the stumps, cause they are spending too much time looking to see if the bowler has bowled a no ball.

It wasn't as obvious as you say it was. It was a ridiculously late edge too.
