Dale Steyn is easily the worst ever fast bowler in the world. He is not even in the same league as the illustrious Jimmy Anderson, Stuart Broad, Mitchell Johnson, Steve Finn and other fantastic bowlers who average 90000 in the subcontinent and are as good as net bowlers when playing away from home.

Nah ****.
This is the internet, nothing's ever really deleted. I had the thread open just then.

Jager, its one of Cribb's first CW posts, circa 2003.

It's good that with a tour of India in the not too distant future, there are some new posters subscribing to the old subcontinent uber alles theory. It's nice that it gets dragged out again every year or so.

It's mainly the same guy over and over again who I keep banning tbf.

Why is this thread still going strong? Steyn isn't the worst best fast bowler ever because he's not the best fast bowler in the world atm. Morkel >>>>Chuck Norris>>>>Steyn

Is Morkel's nickname "Lobster"?

I say this on the basis of the nickname given to a very good mate of mine who used to play cricket with me years ago. He was out on the tiles and had some bird all over him at some club. He was telling her what he had planned for the night, she had her hands in his pockets playing billiards on the dance floor, and all seemed to be going well. She said she had to visit the ladies, and never came back.

He decided to leave and get a cab home, so proceeded to look for the two $20 notes in his pocket, and of course she'd nicked them.

For those who aren't aware, $20 notes in Australia are predominantly red and are commonly called "lobsters", hence his nickname ever after being "Mornay".

Here endeth the lesson.

Story is about you Burgey isn't it?

 

[Dan]

Can't say I've personally heard anyone call a $20 note a lobster.

Neither although I have heard a 50 being called a pineapple

No, though I was in attendance on the night. We had about eight bucks in shrapnel to get us home.What a bitch.

Can't exactly recall when it was, but it's long enough ago that there was acid wash denim and hyper colour shirts at the venue.

Draw your own conclusions.

1990/1991?

 

[Burgey]

Roughly. I'm usually ahead of trends though, so it may have been late 80s

Rooty Hill RSL has never been the same since.
