This one particularly amused me.

Probably because I can't be here all day because I've got school in the day and then have to come home and do schoolwork so I can actually make something of my life and occupy my time with something productive.
Aww poor you. School is such hard work nowadays isn't it? :dry:. They ask you to build a bigger house with your Lego today?

The bold especially made me laugh......you call what you have done this afternoon productive? Well if that's what you Aussies call productive then 'iron bar' me, I'm surprised you lot haven't been blown up by America.....

Actually, as was well pointed out, most of us Aussies don't do anything productive with our time. At all.

Except the schoolkids - our future looks bright!

I'm quite embarrassed actually (just been for a 10 mile walk to think about what I ought to say - I really thought the guy could take a joke, so I'd better be careful in future, especially now I know how short his fuse actually is).

So, this is what I came up with, and how I think the situation ought to be defused, especially bearing in mind the go he had at Andre.

























Sorry. Couldn't think of anything which didn't involve a tyre iron, a funnel and a bucket of soapy frogs.

Is there an inherant problem with trying to stimulate some debate RE Geraint Jones and Adam Gilchrist?? Or is that a bit taboo in these parts?

Maybe we ought to discuss it in the 'domestic movements' thread - or even in the maths thread in off-topic.

So people can't say he's past his prime based on a year's figures, but you can say he's as good as ever based on a year's figures?
No, he's always been good and he suffered a rare slump in 2003, that's it.

But what if he's on a slump and this one year is a rare high spot?

If one side can't use a year's figures as an example of something, then neither can the other side.
