He was pretty much Victoria's worst too
As we had a conveyer belt of Western Australians recently clearly thought we'd try something else. Didn't work.

Mind Short did well as did Kunehmann in a brief spell.

Just need to avoid Victorians clearly as going back to years gone by Boon,Hussey,Di Venuto,Thorpe, Claydon all from other states.

At least our cricketers have personalities. Warne, Merv, Miller (Keith and Colin).

Compared to what? Steve Smith? My cat is a more interesting being

God Vaughan's a cretin.

Saw another headline about him questioning BazBall. Regardless of how it actually ends up, why would England abandon a strategy that has brought them more success that they've had for yonks? They've a better chance of winning doing it than not.

It's a tossup between him and KP for the biggest cretin in cricket. Two blokes that would marry the sound of their own voice.

Neither of them should be getting paid to give an opinion on cricket. As all they do is give outlandish opinions that nobody even takes seriously.

Surprised Vaughan hasn't backed KP 12 runs for a 6 over X metres.

Vaughan blocked me on twitter as I agreed with Adil Ray who called out Vaughan for his racism over suggesting Moeen Ali should be doing more to combat terroism by visiting mosques to stamp it out.

Clearly went down anyone commenting on the tweet and it blocking them such is the ego of the prick.

That how dare anyone disagree with him or call out his racism. Although as we've seen through his twitter and public comments it's debatable if he understands what constitutes racism.

What the ****
Was my reaction when he tweeted in the first place and also months later when realised i'd been blocked.

As someone had shared his stupid opinions during a test match on another forum I post on and could no longer read his rubbish opinion.

As this had been the only time i'd had any interaction with him wasn't hard to work it how i'd been blocked. Manchild springs to mind.

Im just glad im spared his twitter ramblings shame we can't be blocked from hearing his voice or writing via other mediums.

But that's a blackmirror episode and not where we'd ideally want to be as a world :laugh:

Can I throw in Graeme Swann as another candidate? He blocked me on Twitter many moons ago after he gave away a massive spoiler in Breaking Bad. Many people called him out for being an attention seeking **** that day, his blocking button must've been very busy.

He's up there a 10/10 for being a cretin. Just when he stops being a prick he can actually talk about cricket in an interesting way.

I've yet to hear the others stop being a prick and give anything resembling an informed opinion. They're 11/10 on the cretin scale :laugh:

So that's Bancroft chances of getting in the next Ashes Squad done and dusted. He's finished his County stint with a high score of 44 after 4 games (137 runs @ 19.57)

Meanwhile Neser took 4-40 yesterday and coming in at 6-120 was 33* at stumps. So looks a shoe in for next squad or if Hazlewood ruled out

Handscomb vs Smith was rained out yesterday but hopefully some batting today (Leics vs Suss)

Shame for Olly Stone

But we have massive depth in seamers and all would get into Aussies team

Broad, Anderson, Stokes, Woakes, Robinson, Wood, Potts, Overtons, Archer

So much depth

Shame that Stone is injured again as he’s a real talent

Same (obviously) with Jofra
