Haha, if anyone on these boards ever denies Ponting is a dickhead again, I'll be shocked.

Time to just face the facts. He may be a terrific batsman, but he's an A-grade wanker.
Yeah but if he was your mate at least you could count on him backing you in a tough spot. Frankly I'd rather that quality in a mate than the ability to be diplomatic to my rivals.

I rather think that "hothead" is the best adjective one could apply to Ponting.

Haddin:

"It was a no ball, I didn't realise and I was wrong. "

Problem solved.

Allow me:

"****ing cheating convicts. Haddin and Ponting deserve bans and Tait's a ****ing chucker. Wankers the lot of them."

Good times.

Problem is, Ponting is Haddin's captain first, mate second.

Well said, despite being a great batsman he's fast becoming the most disliked cricketer around, even amongst many Australian fans (which says it all). Both Steve Waugh & Mark Taylor may have been hard-asses & were ultra-competitive, but both had tons more class than Ponting will ever have.

Which is great - in a bar-room fight or a playground scuffle over who gets the jungle gym first. This is international cricket between grown-ups.
 
Well the medium pacers of NZ have been troubling Australia for some reason. Australia will come back and win the series once they find their batting form. I couldn't tell whether Grant Elliot was a tail-ender or not but Neil Broom seems like a decent young player.

He is the new Greg Chappell.

Yeah but who cares what you think.
