One decent performance in 5, yeah solid work. Missed a full bunger with the bat as well.Thought Hopes answered some critics today with his bowling...
He's the polar opposite of sideshowtim really. Would be hilarious to bring him back so these two could go at it for a bit.I have no real problem with you or what you're doing, have a close friend who does the same because he couldn't stand Warne, Hayden etc, but honestly, could you stop the trolling? It's doing my head in, there's absolutely no reason for it. Why not just act like any other South African (or whatever side is playing Australia) supporter instead?
Just doesn't make sense. I guess I should expect a "I'm a true Aussie blah blah" post in reply, but anyway.
But that's the whole point isn't it? He wasn't the 5th bowler in this series, he was the 4th at the least, was always brought on first or second change and always bowled his ten. He didn't bowl anywhere near well enough to not be seriously worried about his spot in the side, though there's pretty much no-one left in the cupboard.Not like the rest of the bowling attack was covering themselves in glory this series - Bracken took two wicktes at 90 a piece! - so slating the guy who's the fifth bowler bits'n'pieces guy isn't really fair.
Well I am, but why doesn't it make sense may I ask?I have no real problem with you or what you're doing, have a close friend who does the same because he couldn't stand Warne, Hayden etc, but honestly, could you stop the trolling?

You are what? You're certainly not acting like anything other than a blatant troll out to piss Australians off for no reason other than that they don't like to lose. No South African fans have done this, they've been quite pleasant tbh.Well I am, but why doesn't it make sense may I ask?
Thanks for the support mate but I'm hardly gracious in defeat - more a realistI don't buy it.
You're the one who sounds like a tool. There is a difference between being gracious in defeat and being spiteful towards your team for losing. Social is the former while you are the latter.
I am a true blue 100% Aussie. I'm not out to piss any Australians off just to show a different side to the national character than the one-eyes jingoists that haunt these types of forums.You are what?

Aussies win on Sunday and they go back to Number 1.Number 1.
Haha though, FTR, I haven't watched most of this series. None of the last 3 games either. No Watto = no interest in ODI cricket for me.
I do prefer it over 20/20 to be honest.
It's just so... bland.
You are simply talking crap because, with the exception of the last few years, Oz has comfortably been the worst behaved team in the world since at least '72 and, if the truth be known, since WW2They aren't my team mate. I've been going for England since 2004.
My wife says that when Ponting retires I will probably go for Australia again. Until then I will cheer every defeat as proudly as I can.
Moises!But that's the whole point isn't it? He wasn't the 5th bowler in this series, he was the 4th at the least, was always brought on first or second change and always bowled his ten. He didn't bowl anywhere near well enough to not be seriously worried about his spot in the side, though there's pretty much no-one left in the cupboard.
Not sure what that's got to do with Shane Watson being injured at the moment.I do prefer it over 20/20 to be honest.
Hasn't he just been dropped by NSW? Oh yeah... you don't have to be good enough to play FC cricket for your state to play for Australia any more.Moises!
72? Do you even know what you are talking about? And the comment about WW2 well mate you really have lost the plot. Mark Taylor was a great captain and didn't tolerate the terrible stuff that Ponting engendered.You are simply talking crap because, with the exception of the last few years, Oz has comfortably been the worst behaved team in the world since at least '72 and, if the truth be known, since WW2
In other words, you're either a troll or the Neil Harvey of cricketweb
Sorry I thought you were talking about the format in general. My apologies.Not sure what that's got to do with Shane Watson being injured at the moment.
