That's gotta be peak Thunder, surely?

 

[morgieb]

It's Silk time.

Did nothing to quell my disdain for bowlers that can't hit the hole, however. Tye obviously hasn't practised it, so why he tried to go there at the death is beyond me. Awful execution.
.

Except he has in the other games, obv. under less heat.

I actually think the more Peak Thunder thing was the Green punch hitting thing. Some no name getting promoted because they were unsure what the hell to do and it totally not paying off. The bowling was actually a really good underdog effort for 17 overs. Which isn't really Thunder like. They had, with Kallis' injury, little room for error and five guys who aren't regulars at domestic level (Tremain is closet and was the worst) almost got them home, and then two guys who had each bowled 3 good cheap overs went the journey. Peak Thunder would have been them losing the match in the 13th over imo.

crazy how quickly silk goes from looking useless in t20 to bombing them everywhere, nudges it around for singles to get to a run a ball 20 odd then goes mental, insanely good fielder too

get the **** back to nsw ffs

Yeah yea, but enough about the game - how about the Lazarus-like comeback of the seagull?

Incredible. Worth the price of admission alone.

Two thoughts - a) we were certain it'd been killed at the ground by a security guard. Four of those dum dums tried to surround it in a semi-circle (literally a hole in that plan) then one stood on it as it tried to get away. Then as he carried it off, he seemed to have twisted its neck. But then the next day I read Steven Seagull had been carried away next door and now was fit and healthy enough to again annoy lunch-eating beach-goers and steal food off homeless people. I reckon that might be a rort to make the children at the ground feel better

b) Seagulls are the worst species on this earth. When our man Steven got hit, his 'mates' all flew off for an hour fearing carnage. They only returned a long time later when they were certain the danger was gone. No thought for their comrade.

 

[dermo]

quiney motioning for a shotgun when it first got hit was amazing

 

[the big bambino]

holy crap Silk

+1 and x2

 

[Burgey]

He's an impressive young cricketer, isn't he? Seems to have a poise about him which a lot of less experienced players usually lack.

 

[dermo]

reckon he'd be eyeing off chris rogers' spot post ashes to

 

[Spikey]

should settle for eyeing off Larkin's spot tbh

 

[Antihippy]

Oh Richardson.

 

[Spikey]

maddinson has picked his moments well thus far. i dont know what to make of this

 

[Spikey]

Junior reckons Abbott might be moved up the order

 

[Gnske]

Shaun Tait, forever spud

 

[Spikey]

we got screwed out of a no-ball and then maddinson got out next ball. good to see the anti-nsw conspiracy in action again

 

[Antihippy]

I want to be, forever spud.

 

[Spikey]

if simmons flukes another ton i swear

 

[Nate]

Stupid Maddo.
