*Official* First Test at The Gabba

[Maximas]

pretty wet and cold today, a lot of overnight rain, clearing up this week though

 

[Burgey]

More importantly, what's the forecast for the weekend after next, when I'm down in Melburne for a wedding, and hitting up Flower Drum and Vue Du Monde?

 

[Maximas]

Sunny at this stage, about 20 degrees

 

[Burgey]

Can you do something to improve the view from the hotel room? Melbourne is just **** to look at. "Oooooh look, a vast cricket ground and a dirty, ****ty river. Aren't we the Antipodean Rio de Janeiro?"

 

[Maximas]

No I can only tell the weather

 

[Burgey]

Lift your game ffs.

 

[uvelocity]

can confirm its steamy with about 400% humidity in xxxx gold country

Most of those girls are butters. Two at the back passable.

 

[Ruckus]

Do people reckon Johnson's selection would unite the general population of Australian cricket fans, or irritate them? I gotta say, for me personally, my interest in Aus cricket is at such an ebb atm, but I'm not sure if that's representative of cricket fans overall.

 

[Spikey]

i feel like we as a site don't like the bailey/johnson selections but the 'punters' dig them

 

[Ruckus]

Who was the 'favored' pick over Bailey on this site?

 

[Spikey]

dashing dools

 

[Maximas]

Fawad Ahmed

 

[Ruckus]

so kinda scraping the barrel either way

 

[Spikey]

i would have picked the in form marcus north

 

[flibbertyjibber]

i would have picked the in form marcus north

Now there is a name from the past. How much abuse did he used to get but how good would his record of big scores per game look in the current line up?
