*Official* Fourth Test at the MCG

[NUFAN]

Yawn.

Is Bollinger with the Aussie squad at the moment? I heard today that Harris is likely to play just one of the two Tests, so I'm wondering who is likely to play. Dougeh at the SCG would be good I guess.

Anyone unable to get to the ground for this game can play along at home by playing this song whenever a session is about to begin...

It seems to me that The 12th Man had a touch of the Nostradamus's about him when he had Barmy Army members finding themselves playing after England fell apart in The Ashes on one of his CDs. I'm hoping to see the trumpeter and a couple of the rather large lobsters who were frying under the Perth sun walk out to bat in Melbourne.

Those flying out for the last two matches who are upset it's a dead rubber can console themselves with the fact they might get picked to play.

 

[Spikey]

bollinger, ncn and faulkner are all still around the squad

Unfortunately Tony Greig is dead, so him being a ring-in wouldn't count.

Pick the guy who has never seen a test match outside of Victoria.

They played this song at Adelaide and I wondered if it was a nationwide thing for test matches.

In any case I only said for this test so I don't see what the problem is ****

Innings break in the Barmy Army V's the Fanatics T20 fundraiser.........Fanatics 91/7 off their 20. Those "rather large lobsters" might go all right if called up for duty.

Edit:

Barmy Army 70/2 in reply off 10............Always said our fans were better than your fans.

 

[Spikey]

i just don't know what I'll do if the Fanatics lose

Head around to Bays M15 - M17 for a look.

 

[harsh.ag]

stay away from the victorians

Yeah, considering Victoria is the highest populated district, that might be a bit hard

Swing by the shops on your way back from the beach as you head to the ground ect

Anything in particular?

Surfing?

Won the important stuff then.

 

[Adders]

Actually no not really. Fanatics stuffed us in the first 2 games so the series was 2-1 to them

Michael Vaughan was happy though.......he went to the game today and it was the first English win he's seen on the tour

 

[marc71178]

Interesting opinion, and you are entitled to it. But Johnson's figures clearly demonstrate he has been far more than a mathematical coincidence in Australia's change

Australia's change in form started around the Old Trafford Test, a full 3 Tests before Johnson got involved.
