When this team starts failing, which it will, it will be a hard thud.

That’s what happens when the chairman of selectors admits to only looking one or two Tests ahead. :roll:

Will still win easily but that just extends the fallacy for longer.


Australia are number 1 test side because the bowling is so bloody good only one batsmen an innings has to make a score for them to be in the game.

4-127, two set batsman and Trav **** it up

That’s the sort of dumb shit you see in C Grade country cricket.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Travis Head
Test average 43
7 test centuries
Has that average coz he has the courage to play shots , and often enough when the team is struggling

If I was his captain I would encourage him to play the way he does

FFS, bowlers cant bowl another 8 overs before resting for the night? Too much to ask?


I feel very Un-Australian, BUT….I find myself wanting Marnus to fail, so unlikeable :shock:

And wanting it to piss down Day 4 and 5 as we didn’t enforce the follow on :shock:


Why the f*ck wouldn’t Green want to come in? If it was a captain’s call then he should have told him to get f*cked.

I will go to my grave not getting why there’s such a thing as a nightwatchman. :evil:


164 OZ
41 LYON and top score
34 GREEN 2nd top score

Whilst I donit disagree with your post it ends up =)) :))

If it pitched 2cm shorter ball tracking would definitely be able to work out how far it was turning...
