    2024–25 Australian Domestic Season

    Yeah it's not great. I would definitely still pick Tanveer over Zampa with the red ball, all day everyday

    Turnbull got involved because he wanted a distraction from how poorly his own government was travelling at around that time, pure political opportunism. Especially considering he was by far and away the most high society and least sport interested PM Australia has had in my lifetime, maybe ever...

    I don't think it is a reasonable opinion though, the way in which CA dealt with the situation being unequivocally atrocious is absolutely a hill I would die on, but all in all it is just all opinion though so I suppose should just move on A few people drink West End here (they are the long term...

    Jewell dropped for Tasmania, Nivethan Radhakrishnan in for him up the top. Interesting call EDIT: Weatherald goes first rock, quite the change from his big ton last round. Playing across the line, looked like he was expecting inward movement that wasn't there

    Putting aside anything else, I stand behind my general view of anyone supporting the bans being completely and utterly wrong 100%. Absolute electric chair for a parking ticket type stuff Credit for getting my preferred beer choice right though

    2024–25 Australian Domestic Season

    I see your point, guess it's just frustrating there isn't really options locally though Also unrelated, but in case you were wondering it was said on comms yesterday that Scott had a knee problem and had to get a few stitches in, hence him missing the last Shield game. So as it turns out he...

    Well, you pretty much do though Seriously though, I would think it's a trash opinion no matter who expressed it. The fact that "it just feels worse" was the strongest argument you could mount speaks volumes of how utterly without basis it is to think that

    Yet again zero self awareness whatsover. There is absolutely no purpose at all to putting such a comment out there at all apart from trying to make everything about yourself as per usual. And as for the "fealty" remark, no I certainly don't want you blowing smoke up my arse, be bloody nice if...

    What a load of self obsessed drivel. You are the one who dredged up a post from a month ago (complete with smarmy and unnessecary "you'll probably hate this" comment) and now you want to turn around and try to say I was the one trying to start anything personal? Absolute hot garbage that Of...

    Harvey is not the worst idea honestly, not sure his technique would really stand up on some of the tougher pitches in Shield cricket, but he certainly has more upside to him if he does get in than McInerney. But yeah probably targeting someone interstate is probably the best course of action...

    2024–25 Australian Domestic Season

    Yeah pretty much exactly what Nintendo said. The cupboard really is that bare at grade level in batting depth, especially at the top of the order. The top of the runs list at grade level tends to be dominated by 30 plus players who have had chances and haven't grabbed them and also attacking...

    Honestly it would have to be more like 5 or 6 for 50 before I would realistically think Australia are back in the hunt

    Rain. Damn, was looking forward to that. Annoyingly if it was a standard day game there would have probably been a decent amount if cricket played already

    Fmd spare me the pearl clutching. No other board has even levied anything even close to that degree of penalty either before and after and you damn well know that. And don't give me any of that **** about "wAaAh MuH CuLtUrE" either, there was all sorts of nonsense flying back and forth from both...

    Would have made a lot more sense (while still a bit of a stretch) if he had have used someone like Davies as an example. Someone, who while sometimes prone to playing one shot too many, has actually had something resembling genuine success with those methods. But JFM, yeah not even close

    It was the brown nosed gnome incident that motivated CA to bring all that back in house right?
