He claims to know what was going through Lee's mind.

Distracted on the boundary? Where's the proof of that?

Annoyed by McCullum? Why?

I would have had no problem with Lee being censured during or after the Pakistani game as, circumstancially at least, it looked bad.

The game on Saturday was a totally different scenario.

It was obviously a slow news day.

What made me think about that beamer was McCullum was ****ed off. McCullum (even when gets out to stupid decisions is never angry)

Not only is Brett Lee a ****** as about 20,000 fans suggested in unison last Saturday night, he is also a coward and a liar. Latest quote from him:
"He [McCullum] lost it there for 15 to 20 seconds and I went up and apologised, saying, 'I would never mean to do that'."
"I would never mean to do that". 8-) This will surely be the next Tui ad. (Maybe only kiwis will understand that,)
So even the one to Razzaq was unintentional Brett? Give us a break.

And if McCullum gets angry you know he thinks something is up.

Is it just me or is the crowd chanting "so and so's a ******" the ultimate sign of respect

After all, when was the last time they chanted it re someone who was non-threatening

They chant it to Shane Watson all the time. Everywhere.

:D You keep telling yourself that social. It's the ultimate sign of disrespect. Hadlee got the chant immediately after he angrily and physically removed a schoolboy off the field. I certainly don't have an ounce of respect for Brett Lee even though he does bowl at a threatening pace.

Hadlee received the chant because he was a NZer, primarily responsible for many victories over Australia, and had no sense of humour.

Wally Lewis (an Australian footballer) got it because he was a Queenslander and primarily responsible for may victories over NSW.

Who's got more respect - Hadlee, Lewis or a few thousand yobs with nothing more witty to say than calling someone a ******?

Give me a break!

Would we even be discussing this issue if NZ were leading 3-0? No

Haha. It can be a sign of respect but in the case of Lee I doubt it


*Lee hits Papps in the head and crowd chants you are a *******
Lee: They respect me~!

Hadlee got the chant because the Aussie fans didn't like him just as Wally Lewis got similar treatment from NSW fans I suppose. It's got nothing to do with respect. Ponting, Hayden, McGrath, Gilchrist and even Shane Warne don't get that chanted at them despite being far superior and much more well-respected players.

Ive lost count the no. of times Warne and McGrath have copped it.

Anyway, that's beside the point. Would this even be an issue if NZ were competitive? No.

Yes. If NZ were competitive then Brett Lee's would probably have bowled more beamers and it would be even more of an issue than it is.

But NZ havent been competitive they have been whipping boys for the men. Brett Lee has made Fleming look like a hack who cant bat. Thats your problem not Lee bowling beamers.

8-) So, Stephen Fleming's a hack who can't bat? Real intelligent debate as always Scallywag.

Thats because you didnt read what I wrote Fiery, after bowling Fleming in every game so far for single figure scores Brett Lee has made Fleming LOOK like a hack that cant bat.

But thats your style to get things all muddled up and attack someone for your own failings.

Chill out and watch some replays of the game I'm sure you will like them just as much the second time around.

:D :D :D

OK. I didn't read your post properly sorry. Fleming has been made to look ordinary by Lee which makes it harder to understand why he needs to bring the game into disrepute by trying to maim people with full tosses.

Oh noes he is not scoring 100s every game he must suck...... Not everyone can bat well every game... nor bowl well. I don't think the Nz fans are being babies either Most of them agree that they have been out played this series. But as the games in Aussie showed NZ can be up there with Aussie :) (I don't say stop living in the past..... Cause then stop saying you guys have won some worlds cups... Its in the past)

NZ have won one game against Australia in the last ten games played so I dont think that NZ can be up there with Aussie. Thats not in the past thats where we are right now.
