[Johnners]

What a day, 3 favorite players in the team scoring 70+

 

[stephen]

Clarke seems like such a decent bloke.

 

[Burgey]

Clarke seems like such a decent bloke.

Western suburbs born and bred. Worst thing ever that he was judged by the car he drove.

 

[Spark]

Clarke seems like such a decent bloke.

Yeah, he did that really well. Thought it was going to get super-awkward when they asked him to commentate the dismissals.

 

[hendrix]

Can't stand Mark Nicholas putting words in Clarke's mouth, so uncomfortable.

 

[Crazy Sam]

Can't stand Mark Nicholas putting words in Clarke's mouth, so uncomfortable.

Agreed, I had to switch it off.

Judgement was actually passed after he drove the car whilst his team-mates took the bus

 

[Spikey]

i have never ever heard that, so i'm pretty sure that, even if it did happen, most people are not actually aware of that anyway

Watto needs to contact Hayden and get lessons in sweeping

The guy is basically shotless against spinners unless they bowl a really bad ball and will just be a sitting duck until he develops a shot that allows him to rotate the strike

 

[Ruckus]

Pretty telling stat:

"Clarke has missed nine Tests since his 2004 debut, including those for which he was dropped. Watson, who debuted three months later, has missed 50."

Poor bastard

Shane Watson calf injury expected to rule him out of Sydney test

luv this guy

 

[Spark]

Wow you couldn't make this **** up

 

[Spikey]

Chloe Saltau ‏@chloejane32
Watson injured while bowling in the first innings, ca doesn't know extent of calf strain yet

 

[Spikey]

NUFAN, SportsBet odds on Watson being replaced by an all-rounder and not a batsman? Reckon it's a chance.

 

[Daemon]

Was bound to happen. He's been bowling too much for his standards.

****ing hell. Unbelievable.

Don't know how the guy even keeps his motivation up. After 50 (51?) missed tests I'd be cooked.

 

[benchmark00]

If he suffered it bowling and he batted fine with it well...

he ain't no pup clarke

 

[benchmark00]

Has anyone seen the Weapon hanging around the teams training sessions?

 

[Spikey]

hey aside from David Myers, who missed 7 weeks with a slight knock to the calf, and a couple of oldies like David Hille, our calf muscles were fine
