*Official* India in Australia Thread

[luckyeddie]

luckyeddie, I've not found anything you said to be not in jest. Having read Devil Ducky's Diary, it's hard to imagine you could resist the temptation of a quip when it comes along. I do dislike Rik's constant attempts to refute everything I and other people say with weak subject matter (most of the time).

Chants? Chanting? You're gonna be chanting?? What happened to throwing s**t from Bay 13? :P

I can be serious on occasion. I remember this one day back in 1973, I think it was. There was this guy digging a hole across the front of our drive and he was....

no, sorry, that's not it.


Re faecal projectiles - better to put the stuff in a brown paper bag, set fire to the bag then throw it. I bet no-one can resist stamping on it to put the flames out.

Oh, and regarding Rik - we just humour him.

Faecal projectiles should be easy to find, it's in high abundance in Bay 13. Every time they open their mouths it comes flying out...

Note: Michael Clarke flying up the PWC ODI Rankings

Let me put it this way, if an aussie fields near bay 13 we'll chant his name and he will be a god. If its an indian, he won't last to long.

 

[Gaijin-san]

You *expletive*ing legend!

If only Sourav Ganguly had the balls to field near there, that would be good! Mr Prince getting treated to some of the good ol' Australian working class.

thank you thank you i'm here till thursday, try the veal (Shrek)

Lehmann certain to miss the first test against India. I suppose going on the last test against Zimbabwe, Katich would be likely to hold on. Here's the inevitable question (from me): Clarke a dark horse for inclusion? Certainly a chance given that he made leaps and bounds in India, even coming back with a few wickets to go with his runs.

 

[Don Ricardo]

including clarke would be a good choice
what better way to get his test career of the ground than being given a 4 test gorge on the indian pie chuckers
it would do his confidence the world of good

 

[Gaijin-san]

I'd let him loose in Australia.. Take India to the cleaners.

It would be funny if he ended up as AA's 'bunny'.

 

[Gaijin-san]

LOOOL, I'd say it's more likely to happen the other way around!

 

[marc71178]

No chance of either IMO since he won't get picked.

Bar some serious injury woes, I doubt he will be picked, because unlike most of the Aussie contingent on this forum, the Australian selectors seem to have some respect for their opponents.

24 off 70 balls...

Programming error. Fix it and don't go blaming me if the sim can't get it right

 

[Rik]

Oh, and regarding Rik - we just humour him.

By that it means I find it funny when someone argues with me with no case to lay down. I think Ged will find the reason I disagree with just about everything he says, is because it's typical antipodean arrogance that ends up with whoever disagreeing, getting a shedload of insults sent their way.

 

[Rik]

I don't know why I bother. I did start coming here to talk cricket, which is what I do more often than not, but I'm finding myself ostracized every time I say something.
What happened to taking things with good humour?

You managed to reply to a post that was taking the **** and take it personally! Anyway if you just came here to talk about cricket, why did you spend nearly a page of one of the threads insulting Wrighty and calling him "Mr Wrong?"

 

[Gaijin-san]

'Mr Wrong' was in reference to him... The time was spent refuting him, you'll find.

More cricket, less Rik, please.

Oh my what a wit! I think you'll find "Mr Wright" was actually correct and you were the one calling him "Mr Wrong" when you were talking rubbish. Less of me? Well I think we could have done without the page of "No I'm right your wrong MR WRONG."

More cricket less ego Mr Ged.

 

[Gaijin-san]

'Twould have been far less heated without the obligatory interference of an unnamed Englishman.

 

[Rik]

'Twould have been far less heated without the obligatory interference of an unnamed Englishman.

It seemed much more full-on insulting than any humour I must say, and Mr Wright certainly didn't find it funny. Oh dear though there you go again, I'm not English sorry. I come back from spending time with friends and have to put up with rubbish such as this. All sort of puts stuff in perspective doesn't it. Your just not worth it.

 

[Gaijin-san]

Rik, living vicariously through other people on the internet is taking having no life to new levels. I'm surprised you could be insulted by something that wasn't addressed to you. Notice the wasn't addressed to you part, please.

Mr Mxyzptlk, I agree wholeheartedly with you. Clarke doesn't stand a chance. Doesn't mean I'm gonna stop hoping

Lehmann - Useless
Katich - Inconsistent
Love - Wasted down the order
