***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2013/14

[ajdude]

fmd reiffel.

 

[Burgey]

I remember texting a mate of mine when he dropped that catch and saying I would be at the airport to abuse the **** when they got home.

As it happened I ended up at a function at Town Hall in Sydney after a ticker tape parade for the team after they won it. Only autograph I didn't get was Boof, who stayed on to play for Yorkshire iirc.

 

[Burgey]

That game is the best ODI ever played IMO, given what was at stake.

 

[uvelocity]

who was the governor general at the time social?

 

[Burgey]

I'd like to think it was still Bill Deane, but that **** Howard had probably appointed some pedo-sympathiser bishop by then.

 

[ajdude]

in retrospect it seems pointless to have puushed that instead of c+ping it

 

[Burgey]

Gilly eh. Three WC finals, three 50+ scores. WAFG

 

[Spikey]

surprised you managed to go through this conversation without talking about Tom Moody

 

[Burgey]

Lol you're kidding Ponting. Australia would have had to forfeit to lose the 07 WC

 

[Burgey]

This was the tournament where Australia played so well that people were saying Mike Hussey was out of form because the poor **** couldn't get a hit.

 

[ajdude]

yeah didn't he open against ireland iirc? think we were chasing like 90

 

[Spikey]

Looking forward to hearing Brad Hodge talk about his century against the Netherlands

 

[Burgey]

Trent Johnston. Wag

 

[Burgey]

Jesus, Hayden was a brutal player.

 

[ajdude]

yeah **** he hit it hard. too bad he's such a **** these days

 

[ajdude]

how didn't he make an ODI double ton

 

[Burgey]

So cute how Sri Lanka thought they had a shout. But Sanath, jeez he was great to watch.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Was always good for at least one ridiculous ton vs Australia in a tri-series, often in Sydney.

 

[Burgey]

Yeah he used to cane it in Sydney

 

[ajdude]

most bizarre things in ODI history:

1) that 7th ODI in bangalore last year
2) this
