Haha, maybe I just know more about Hunt and Folau than Benchy.

 

[GIMH]

Take the AFL bull**** to the AFL thread ****s

 

[Jono]

We're actually talking about rugby league now GIMH. Keep up.

Either way, bore off.

Either way, bore off.

Agreed. Why do some Aussies see the need to distrupt a thread about the Test series between England and South Africa?

Lighten up.

Always feel for the domestic players who do well against the tourists in non-FC games. Aneesh Kapil has made what would've been a career best.

Impressive for an 18yo in any event.

Strauss was never likely to be around in time for the next world cup, he's also captain.

Vaughan was never likely to be around for the 2011 World Cup and in any ase wasn't much cop in the format.

Harmison I'm not too sure about.

Don't think either of them were trying to skip the format so they could play more carnival cricket for money more they were retiring form the format to spend more time with their family or so England could move on.

Hussain vs Smith = Hussain chopped
Vaughan vs Smith = Vaughan chopped
Strauss vs Smith = Last test series for Straussy as the captain?

 

[MW1304]

A question never before posed throughout the thread.

 

[Viscount Tom]

Doubt it, under the previous two results had been for a while below par and the form of the captain troubling.

Can anyone guess what Ian Chappell is thinking?

Knock me down.

 

[Spikey]

how do you think Chappell feels when Warnie is commentating with Botham

 

[Spark]

Now that's an article written by Ian Chappell. NFI what the last one was all about.

 

[vic_orthdox]

I don't disagree with Chappell as much as some on here, but the Miller anecdote is a hilarious thing to bring up.

 

[Spikey]

it was a good article up til that point.



then it became a stunning article. just needed to mention WSC

 

[uvelocity]

hes the master of hindsight

I mean I don't really rate Strauss tactically but that article is hilarious. It's as if he was so mortified by "his" last effort that he made sure this was as idiosyncratically Chappelli as he could possibly make it, random historical anecdotes and pumping up aggressive Australian captain and all.
