[Stumps]

Ridiculous comment Jim, very racist

[Dogwatcher]

Racist, really?

He's South African and Jim regards him as a tosser. Where's the racism?

yeah i fail to see the racism too...

[Johno6]

He wasn't implying all south Africans are tossers,

so your saying if you refer to someone from where they are born you are racist?

[dedja]

He wasn't implying all south Africans are tossers ...

Of course not ... *cough* Botha *cough*

[Rik E Boy]

Disgraceful decision from the board! Woeful timing in my opinion

The sooner the better. Gives us a chance for the Home series. Arthur was Cancer.

Siddle might struggle to even hold his place in the team let alone captain the side

Why is that? Seeing as though he has been Australia's most consistent and resilient bowler over the last 5 years.

No tricks. BTW, Pup is our best bat and we can't bat and you want him gone. WTF??

James Sutherland and Pat Howard. Just like football clubs, the people who over see the mess should be accountable too.

Bye bye James.

Don't need tricks. Line and length. Clarke gone as captain. Yes.

[whufc]

That's the problem Siddle just short of a length line won't cut it against the poms on their deck!!

Unless he gets them getting on the front foot he has no hope!

They are the clearly different words, you raise a super point. I will leave this topic. Was just raising a point as clearly the mods are happy lowering analysis of our aus cricket coaches tenure into name calling and racist inferences

have an issue with a post any poster can use the little exclamation mark button to report the post and you can outline your issues with it. Mods/Admin will then discuss and take the necessary action.

No, that's been written by someone who is inconsiderate. Not necessarily someone who's biased against disabled people.

It wasn't racist. It was, possibly, a character assasination, yes.

Yeah the more i thought about it, i think this is the main reason. They can't see us winning in England (don't think anyone can) but a chance to win at home, so they had to act now to give Lehmann enough time to work with the squad and coach our side to Ashes victory in Australia

[Dog_ger]

Suddenly I have an interest in cricket again.

Something that was long gone.

Australian cricket got lost somewhere...?

Was there a woman running things...

Betcha don't have to write out 50 lines if you do something wrong now...

Or pick up 50 papers on the school oval....

To prove that you are a capable Australian Cricketer...

what a shame the rotation policy is now gone
