Australian International Summer (The Ashes) 2021/22

[am Bays]

To be official any moment, Cummins out, Smith captain, Neser to debut.

Hearing he's extremely unlikely to play.

No chance of an exemption.

Standard close contact rules to apply.

Not a chance with Miss Helena.

that he'll play or....

Mate arrives from Sicktoria at 7am this morning
Airport testing station doesn't open until 8am
The line is a mile long by 8am
Mate does test but is allowed to go to the cricket

He did ring me at 8.30 to tell me above.

My response? "Just dont touch that ball"

Hope no-one (or many) tests positive or its going to be carnage

testing stationn doesnt open til 8am?? typical adelaide laughing stock

Better still book a timeslot for a test at a drive through yet you still line up with everyone without a booking!

Hear about the bloke that blocked everyone off last Monday
He eventually got moved on by the coppers.
He rang 5AA and said he was crook as a dog but was going to the pub anyway
This is what happens when there's a SNAFU

Get seen through her magic mirror, the cow never saw me, I was jumping up and down in front of the screen FFS!!!

[Booney]

Lyon and Starc were also there but as they were outside the restaurant they were deemed casual contacts and don't need to isolate.

So, Cummins spends the next 7 days in his room, he'll be out on the 23rd, I assume fly to Melbourne 24th, is he selected to play on the 26th?

Head VC I believe.

[Jim05]

Could’ve been worse if we had to replace 3

[Lightning McQueen]

I think Lyon and Starc were there too, they were just outside having a durry.

Why oh why couldn't it have been Neser in the restaurant.

That was unnesercery...

If he could play Hazelwould.

[The Dark Knight]

Bloody hell that's obviously a massive out for Aus, f**king COVID!
Ah well least we'll get a good look at both Richardson and Neser now, I'm looking forward to seeing how they go along with Starc who has an excellent pink ball record. Also looking forward to seeing how Anderson and Broad go too, assuming they're not left out again of course. I'm assuming Woakes will be the one who misses out?

or starc

[Jimmy_041]

cue Mark McGowan to make a comment

I’m not sure he will

According to him, Covid is out in the desert hunting down the unvaccinated.

Up pops the recalcitrant bug that attacks the vaccinated in the city.
That’s screwed up his message

Bloody George's on Waymouth strikes again

or starc

Or Marnus

The balance of our attack is really out now. With this now happening it will show how much Hazelwood being out will hurt us.

Normally you both Cummins and Hazelwood and when you need some class and someone you k own can deliver, you have these blokes.

Starc can be all over the shop at times, Richardson and Nesser are freshies. Green is in the same boat.

Who opens with Starc?
Richardson I presume?

I would think so.

Hope he goes well. Lot to ask of him now.

If I were the poms I'd attack Starc and Lyon. Make the Aussies have to bowl Nesser and Richardson with green as much as possible.

[Armchair expert]

Richardson and Neser will take 12 wickets between them
