Hmm, so the issue is with how he behaves on the field then?

So on a scale of Dravid to Any Australian, how much of a bellend do we reckon he is when he's on the field?
The **** i know. I just hate his face

Not one of you blokes have pointed out how anything he's said is in anyway wrong.

Principally because he's right.

Adders tried but his comment was plainly wrong. The idea that Australians can't cop the sun compared with Poms is ludicrous and, frankly, infraction worthy. People drop dead over there at 30 degrees ffs. It's embarrassing.
I’m not saying he’s wrong - I couldn’t do that without wasting brain cells and energy reading what he’d written - I was just saying he’s a ****wit.

What's people's beef with Jimmy Anderson? Seems like a nice, quietly spoken chap in interviews
The only thing i know about his personality is his overwhelming tendency to be an abusive **** on the field, and then when anything is said to him whinge to the umpires about it.

Being able to give it but not take it isn't something that'll get you a lot of respect

It's how many view the Australian culture. Not that one Australian would agree.....

Also there was the whole thing in KP's book (yeah yeah I know) that apparently Anderson was one of a crew of 4-5 bullies in the England team that would abuse their teammates for misfields and do all sorts of bad stuff that I can't remember and is probably at best only somewhat true.

I'm sure there may have been some inconsistencies from reality with KP's story but I don't doubt that it came from somewhere

I get the feeling Siddle’s gonna make us taste it.

Doesn’t make it a good call though.

Just standing by the museum at Edgbaston and Glenn McGrath has walked past. Didn't have the balls to ask for a prediction though!

For all the crap I gave 9’s coverage, the opening theme just sounds right for watching cricket.

Also have 9 seriously sent their own commentary team up?

stocks in spikey pty ltd take a hammering as the market reacts to siddle's recall. it's feared that the pledge taken by spikey pty ltd ceo, Spikey, that peter siddle's test average will not finish below 30 is at risk thanks to england's **** opening pair.
