Bye bye to FTA coverage of all BBL matches then.

that would really suck

 

[GirtBySea]

Second that Jedi.

Hussey seems like a huge nerd

 

[morgieb]

that would really suck

If it's Channel 9, 7 or Fox Sports having BBL coverage I'm taking Fox Sports in a heartbeat. Especially as I now have Foxtel Now

Would mean bad things for the game as a whole, though.

 

[Gnske]

rip in piss Channel 10, how ever will I get my fill of Neighbours now?

 

[Spikey]

I mean, the end game is still Fox/Murdoch buying C10, isn't it?

I was going to mention that brockley but you beat me to it.
I wasn't online on the weekend and I heard whispers that the previous high performance manager Andrew Dykes was about to get the flick.
It was reported for months on end anyway that a review of all CT positions were going to get reviewed anyway. Dykes getting sacked isn't a surprise, but I head NFI who was going to replace him and then it was...Drew Ginn?!

What a ****ing beast Patto has been. Might have a case of being our best red-ball bowler at this point.

My boy Cossie. Could there be a late career test call up? Please!

I've noted before how in the CA/players dispute it's been David Warner who's been the most vocal publicly about the issue and that seems to have become an issue for him.David Warner says Steve Smith 'could probably push more' as cricket pay dispute intensifies

Even if this dispute does get resolved this might lead to some friction between the two afterwards because if Warner is prepared to say this publicly (and tbf it is fairly mild) there probably is some stronger disappointment privately held amongst the players about Smith's lack of public statements on it.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Talk about taking a line out of context for an article...

 

[Riggins]

Dave Warner coming across as the most intelligent and reasonable of all the parties involved in this debacle is the greatest indictment on CA

I remember like 10-15 years ago every Aussie in county cricket (and there was like 15-20 of them) would have a batting average of like 80

lol @ Bancroft averaging 16 in Division 2 county cricket. What a spud.

 

[Spikey]

How sharp did Warner look on the telly? what a world we're living in
