Symonds sent home

Yeah, sorry. Shouldn't have mentioned anything. Know how annoying it is for someone to dangle the bait like that.

Don't wanna get CW or me in any trouble, but a quick trip to Google should reveal all.
Hi Brumby, OT but I am thinking about performing a random search on Google, can you advise me as to what the best keywords I might wish to type in are?

Is it like an April fools day in Australia today?

Symonds radio rant.

Asked later about Hayden's cooking, Symonds replied that he takes a "side glance at Hayden's wife'' as "it helps the meal go down amply well''.

:blink:

I had always thought that Symonds was just a guy unfairly treated by the media and maybe had some unresolved harmless personal issues, but now it seems he's a real asshole and I don't think I like him anymore.

I reckon that Haydoss put him up to the comment about his wife. Probably lost a bet or something.

For any MMM listeners, Roy & H.G interviewed Andrew Symonds this afternoon. Very early in the interview, it became obvious that he was quite drunk. Roy & H.G picked up on this and decided to play with it a bit and ask a few probing questions.

Firstly they asked him about the media's reaction to Hayden's poor form and he was able to slur out a defense for his friend, tripping over every sentence then repeating himself and saying "Tangent" about 15 times.

They then asked him about McCullums signing with NSW. He went on a bit how it was not the right thing, then halfway through could not properly pronounce his name and kept calling him McCallan. He then proceeded to call him a "New Zealand piece of ****", then apologised and called him a "Piece of horse dirt".

They finished off by asking him about Haydens cooking. After commenting on how it's hard to focus on the cooking because he is too busy looking at Haydens wife, he went on a rant about how Hayden is a sissy because he has a coffee maker.

Now I don't begrudge the man having a drink on a hot Friday afternoon watching the cricket, all of us do it. But how dumb do you have to be to go on the radio drunk after publicly admitting a drinking problem. He would have known about the interview for some time, but still decided to get plastered by 6:00, then go on and embarrass himself yet again.
As posted on another board (which seems to banned...), just after it happened. Everyone obviously thought it was a pile of **** at the time. Guess not.

They really should've asked him about Bhajji and his time in India. Would have been comedy gold.

Classless ****wit. I wasn't sure if my opinion of Symonds could go any lower, but it just has.
