***Official*** Australia in New Zealand 2016

[Riggins]

Hope this puts to bed all the nonsense about the kiwi's consistently deserving three tests. Best new ball attack in the world, best overall batsman, best number four, best captain, best keeper, and they get dicked 4-zip. Bloody hopeless. Best NZ side ever and they'd be an also ran in the shield.

this is some kiwah level crying. what a mug.

Well he does have something to complain about. NZ come into it all guns blazing mouthing about taking it up to the Aussies and then going all limp wristed when it counted. Australia should sue NZ for breach of contract.

Explosive, TNT.

Shut up already, Warner. Our fans just support aggressively but we know where the line is and we don't cross it.

Eh. I can't stand Warner but even I felt bad for him at one point during the Christchurch test. One clown was having a go about his wife and that infamous Sonny Bill video.

Look, if we say we know where the line is and we don't cross it; we don't cross it. ok?

Them's the rules, and I don't make 'em.

Surely those people should just get evicted on the spot, not sure why that didn't happen. Lately the security in Aus crowds are absolute ****s you pretty much get kicked out for looking at someone funny.

mate look they know where the line is and didn't cross it

BTW, that's all fair enough. I suppose by the same rights England could say the same following the last Ashes series, especially after the humiliating 60 all out at Trent Bridge while were dishing out the condescending insults.

Let's not forget it was a dead rubber with England up 3-1 when Aust went into that last effectively meaningless test match. Perhaps England could claim they should host NZ for the 5 test series next time they visit and Aust just 2 or 3 given NZ drew the series and Aust lost.

But that may upset poor little Davey Warner ...so we better not suggest anything there...

 

[TheJediBrah]

If Warner said those things after absolutely destroying NZ, imagine what he would have said if he had have lost . . .

of course you'd take the bait

Warner has taken a big swipe at the NZ cricket team calling them weak , their bowlers were lame and the batsmen sooks. Good on the aussies we need more matches that are worth watching and teams wanting to win and not just earn a bucketful of money.

Wait, where in that article did he say they were 'weak', lame & sooks, or are you just trolling as per? '

Anyway... this is nothing new from Australian cricket..Classic bully mentality in that they can give it but not take it. That whole umpiring episode reminded me of how Ponting used to throw his toys out of the cot when not everything went his way.

This BS about turning the mics off because we don't want the public (in a professional entertainment sport) to hear how vulgar the players are in the heat of the moment is absurd. Followed by the ironic comment about the vulgarity of NZ crowds and how he doesn't want his daughter hearing that sort of thing, but presumably it's fine his daughter may hear about 'breaking someones *** arm'.

Rich rich stuff here, and throwing stones from glasshouses is about all I can think of.

While Warner's behaviour has definitely mellowed in the last 12 mths or so, he's still miles behind on the credibility stakes to start writing about moralistic behaviour.

And finally how sad it is that he was almost indicating (when referencing Johnson) that Australia can't be at their best unless they're allowed to carry on like absolute bogan *****s on the field.

More a classic case of Aussies being able to give and not take I'd suggest.

BTW, no honest NZ fan would say anything other than we were embarrassed by Aust this summer and were miles below the sort of test cricket we're being playing in the 2 years prior to that. However just a gentle reminder we weren't humiliated in the English summer as you were and actually performed better, saying nothing about the last away test series vs. Pakistan in the UAE in which once again we were the better touring side. I'm not for a second suggesting Aust shouldn't be above us on the ratings, but some pretty rich stuff being thrown around here, stuff with very short memories attached to it.

So, uh, just fyi you are responding to a post which was infracted for trolling/baiting.

Cheers for that, but the comments on how 'rich' Warner comes across in the article stand.

A read what Warner infered/meant.

there was nothing wrong in what you said (although i do believe that winning/drawing 2 match series is lot easier than doing it over 5 matches) nor was in what Riggins said Its just very pakpassion/youtube like where one bloke makes a legitimate point about why a certain team sucks and a bloke from that team then would look at what the other blokes team is and like oh you suck too.

That's fair enough, although the 60 all out is a pretty hard one not to mention when where getting belittled, especially given those series were just 6-8 months ago.

 

[Zinzan]

Not at all, unless you mean Warner's bait, considering 95% of my post was directly reacting to Warner's article. I did point out our other mate was trolling.
