Lee Retires

Given Blocky is basically a better bowler than Shane Bond, he should've been the one to bowl at Morgan.

Bloke was box office. There were more effective bowlers, but few who'd make for more entertaining passages of play when bowling.

Arguably the best seamer in the world for a brief 18 month period after McGrath retired too.

Testament to his likeability that he sent down more beamers than any other bowler ever (fact) and we all still think he's a good bloke.

Always felt sorry for big brother Shane - must be bloody annoying to be denied a Test cap by baby bro

Indian women saying, "He's so cute" when I brought him up have led to many a decent conversations. Thanks Brett.

Except for Burgey. I don't think anybody who supports the Libs can be a good bloke in his book.

Oh and everybody who's had the displeasure of hearing him commentate.

There's plenty worse commentators than Lee on 9 IMO. Yes he isn't a natural in the box, but he's not anywhere near as annoying as some.

Good bowler with a lovely action. Has been entertaining to watch and seems good value as a bloke too..

I wish he didn't retire. Not only do I still enjoy watching him bowl, he is also an atrocious commentator.
