No such things as oval no.2. There are some turf nets out the back near where no.2 was. The Windies traing this morning between the nets and the main oval, Aus this afternoon at the same places.

So Bollinger will replace Hilf in the starting XI one would assume.


Oh god...no members stand, no opposition, Kat and Rug playing....does it get any worse?

'bout the only thing guaranteed is this test will be a shambles for the fans...


Yep. We could have Manou keeping wickets.

Are the Aussies training tomorrow, and if so what time ?

With Adelaide Oval only able to hold 17,000 people, there would be a few that would miss out with half the oval being memebers, i don't suppose theres any chance of it being live into Adelaide.

Definitely not. I doubt there will be more than 10000 to be honest. I'll be there on friday though.

it was great to see Mals great man putting extra effort in the nets with Mal standing close by offering some tips on technique.

Watto was very grateful
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!

Hopefully there will not be many people there on Sunday as that's when I'll go. Since I won't be going next year.

The West Indians had the day off and not practiscing
The Australians did
3 batsman had a long hit
Mike Hussey
Sir Richard Ponting
and the chosen one Shane Watson

Nobody there could get withing 200 mtrs of the players except for the media
But Mal, The Donny and Mighty Tiger got up close as we are the safooty media
Only the coach and Watto were left
This is precisely why Watto the iron man stays unjury free whilst his team-mates are falling injured around him
As Watto finished practicing
I said
" Shane make a 100 mate.""
The chosen one replied
" I will try thanks mate.""

Training was just off Montefiore Hill Road
About 500 meters past Colonel William Lights statue
And about 1.5 km east of where the goldigger says she had sex with a polly
And about 2 kilometres away from where Brad Hodge hit a six last season that landed somewhere between KW RD and the Adelaide ZOO

The practice pitches looked a treat
Watto let a couple of balls go outside off stump

Apparently the Windies trained at a private school today

No, Number 2 is the home of the soil removed from the building site. This soil will be returned once construction is complete and number 2 will be back (at this stage at least :D ).

Absolutely beautiful day today, anyone heading down to Adelaide Oval should be in for a ripping time.

Can anyone shed some light on this Sammy fella? Has come in for Taylor and his FC stats are decent (not to mention those in his short test career) but you wouldn't think the standard domestically over there is all that flash.
