I'll be stoked if we declare at tea. At least that way, i'll get to see Australia bat tomorrow just before lunch.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Yes I have MT79
Ive had the opportunity to watch all of the games on C9, not one third each day like this Test

Just had a terrific interview with Boof Lehmann
Talked about the 99 world Cup in England
Australia was out of form were not playing well , the players decided to dump the drinking ban
They went on to win the Cup
Funny man that Boof

Honestly mate, we have Boney whinging about a poor crowd and you whinging about no live coverage, put 2 and 2 together, they aren't a charity case.


I not "whinging about a small crowd" or about bloody live coverage, I'm whinging about shit programming by Cricket Australia.

You say they aren't a charity case? Well FFS, start the Test tomorrow and have 25k+ for the next four days instead of the crowd there yesterday and today.

I don't expect live coverage but CA have done themselves no favours here. I guess the Big Smash is making enough money thta they dont need to worry so much about revenue.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

i guess the test matches not lasting 5 days, which is costing ch 9 money in sponsors etc is why they wanna show the BBL next summer

Well sorry for the poor choice of wording, they had to fit it in with the BBL ;) . Starting it on the 26th would've made more sense, I guess they figured that the 26th would be sold out regardless.

Of course! Silly, silly me. They had to finish the Test series, the biggest draw card of the summer which, on free to air TV draws massive TV audiences so they can have a 20 over flog-a-thon on Pay TV on a Saturday night.

Silly, silly me.

My sentiments precisely. If I was single or didn't have kids and a wife that would want to go aswell, I would've been there in a heartbeat.
