3rd Test at Melbourne - December 26 - 30

[Prince EWS]

That does seem slow.

Hendrix doesn’t agree but I’m yet to come across a positive rapid test than doesn’t convert to a positive PCR

My cousin was positive RAT and negative PCR.

Given he has symptoms and the person he sleeps next to had a positive PCR though it's all very weird.

 

[Daemon]

You’re all RATs

 

[Prince EWS]

You’re all RATs

Are you positive?

 

[Adders]

You’re all RATs

Rats - small little pests that invade our houses and workplaces. Considered vermin simply because they can't stick to their own natural habitats and insist on making a nuisance of themselves in ours.

Sounds very much like Indian posters in this sub forum itbt.

She’s had like four of them all positive so it’s pretty much a given I guess. She seems pretty good and thankfully hasn’t got bad symptoms by all reports. She’s triple vaxxed as well, thank ****

Sorry about your SIL, Burgey. Hope she is ok and recovers fully and quickly. God Bless.

Just out of curiosity, who amongst the domestic spinners around do you rate?

Bit of a random one because he's only played one game and took 1/150 but I like Rocchiccioli. I've always rated Holland too but I think the ship has sailed on that one.

Rocchiccioli

is he an italian pasta dish

Thought Rocchiccioli looked alright in that game, was a typical flaaaaaaaaaat KRO pitch tbf. Would have liked to have seen more of him, as you said in the BBL thread picking Sh'ort as a bowling allrounder is not a good thing

Holland probably killed his future chances with Australia by being so underwhelming in the UAE imo

Yeah I reckon he's a good fit for Australian conditions - strong action with a big pivot, lots of overspin, tall so gets extra bounce. He was very accurate in that game too. I'd like to see him in a more attacking situation (and take more than one wicket ) as he almost exclusively bowled darts on a road, but I liked what I saw.

I have a bit of a soft spot for Freeman too but he bowls way too many absolute pies, he's basically Dom Bess.

Yeah that was a career death in real time. Sad.

Mate of mine messages me today and says “Swepson is in the mix, yet his first class average is 34”, dutifully ignoring Lyon’s fc average is about 33.5

 

[Prince EWS]

I didn't use to rate Swepson much but I saw some great signs early last season that he was really improving. My main concern is that he doesn't seem quite the same since he had that weird neck injury.
