Bryant is a major talent

Just needs a brain
not meaning to take credit away from his innings tonight, the guys been playing for years opening and has an average of 19.
good innings tonight but highest ever score of 81, surely he's not a major talent.

Definitely a rare ball striking talent but dumb as a box of rocks

Lynn has been a terrible influence on this team

Will the test players join their BBL clubs? This BBL desperately needs star players

Gonna be weird watching Scotty Boland get slapped around the park by domestic hacks after recent events

Am I just an old fuddy duddy man or do others share this sentiment? I find the annoying music between balls as opposed to a natural crowd atmosphere completely contrived and it takes me out of the moment because the whole game suddenly feels fake. Sport is tribal drama and if you're playing music to try and get the crowd involved then there's something wrong with the product. Im thinking back to watching world series games in the late 80s and early 90s at the SCG. The crowd chants were electric as everyone cared deeply enough about the result to act together.

The most embarrassing and awkward BBL crowd gee up is the queen "aye oi". It was great when Freddie Mercury did it in concert because he's a singer and he's bringing the audience into his world but during a cricket match it falls flat without any context.

Actually I'm watching the Aus open right now and there's plenty of atmosphere without the crowd announcer yelling at the crowd every minute.

Ok ready to be told Im just an old man living in the past.

Agree with you ttm. It's confected hype and it doesn't work. I think it's been around so long now I sort of filter it out and don't notice it as much as I used to, but it's dross. Much like TJB and Nintendo's posts and their faces.

My face was filtered out on the news the other night

Apparently James Seymour is a top bloke. Guy at my club played a couple of years at Essendon - Seymour was one of the few first teamers who took the time to help other players. It was usually every man for himself.

Watching a lifeless match while Roy absolutely stuffs his face in the comm box.

The BBL experience can't peak beyond this
