**** this C9 coverage is awful, its not an episode of the Cricket Show you dickheads.

 

[Burgey]

It's just horrible hearing people speak of him in the past tense

 

[Burgey]

Mod should change his name in the thread title to Phillip. It's what his family asked for.

Don't know why we need any of them doing this reporting tbh, especially the close ups of the players.

 

[Burgey]

The mid north coast of NSW seems to be putting on a typically hot and humid summer afternoon for this, judging by the brows being wiped.

Oh, here's Jonesy. Quelle surprise.

 

[Burgey]

Wonder why Peter Dutton is at the funeral.

 

[howardj]

pyne there?

 

[Burgey]

Those pics of his mum as the family came in. Jesus.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

If only we could swap Ken Sutcliffe for the Prince. Insufferable.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

This is a heart-wrenching watch.

 

[GIMH]

The eulogy from the cousin was fantastic but tough to watch, especially when he did the mummy's boy bit and it panned to her. Brutal.

Done.

 

[Cabinet96]

I want to give Michael Clarke a hug.

 

[Burgey]

He looks a broken man, and who can blame him? You don't take on a role like captaincy and ever imagine it would entail having to go through this past week, and the weeks still to come.

 

[Burgey]

No parent should have to bury their child. What those poor people must be going through.

 

[Zinzan]

Very touching indeed. I must add, the way Australian's seem to unite as one under adversity is quite incredible. It's certainly not the first time this amazing unity has been on display.

 

[Gnske]

Can't possibly imagine how hard it must be for his friends and family, knowing he's literally there inside an inch or two of coffin.

[Spikey]

anyway im about to watch this. i'll regret it every time they do a close up of someone

 

[ankitj]

Done.

What was the name in the title before?
