With the South African series starting 17 December, I wonder if we will see plenty SBW masks on show

Bowlers are ok, it’s the batsman that seem to be dicks. (Trav excluded)

As with a lot of criminals; he just doesn't get that his actions have consequences longer than 5 minutes

Totally agree. I read this morning his manager said that the hierarchy of CA told him that we need reverse swing to win test matches and to do that they need to tamper with the ball. Hmm, not sure they really said that but if I had one ounce of credibility or 'leadership', I would've said "no".

Very odd claim by his manager, given that he's just come out saying that he doesn't want the dirty laundry to be aired.

I really don't like a lot of the Aussie team members.

What about the players?

I really like Uzi, Trav, Green, Carey, Hazlewood, Neser and Boland.

I used to really like Patty but I'm losing a bit of love for him.

I'm 50/50 with Smith and Starc.

Used to love watching Gaz but don't anymore, I really respect Marnus as a batter but I think he's a knob.

Warner just outknobs himself every time he opens his mouth.

EFA

Yeah im i a similar boat.

Love Trav, Usi, Green. Boland

Like Carey but well documented i think his grossly overrated with the gloves, Hazelwood is ok, Starc is ok but a bit of a front runner for mine.

Have respect for Neser.

Lyon has turned into a wanker since his rise to fame.

Was the biggest Smith fan boy but lost all respect for him during the SAF saga. At least his trying to earn everyones respect back but will take a while.

Appreciate Marnus but he's the president of the dickhead society.

Warner can retire tomorrow for all i care.

Personality = Wanker?

This. Irks me that anytime someone is not a robot, they are automatically a wanker.

Marnus strikes me as a bit ADHD, bit I quite like him as a sportsperson - aims to get the absolute best out of himself, and is a little bit energetic/left of centre in the process.

**** Uniti internet/

For the last week and a bit, my internet (wireless fixed broadband) has had multiple dropouts per day, making it very hard to work from home.

FInally rang this morning and the response from the guy on the other end couldn't have been more dismissive if he tried.

I was basically told bad luck and there's nothing they can do until they've completed some maintenance on that tower, for which they couldn't give me an ETR.

Time to look for NBN plans i think - any suggestions?

I never have an issue with iiNet

Fixed Wireless internet runs the risk of line of sight issues over time and tower congestion. I believe Uniti have their own infrastructure and probably don't have a need of looking to improve the service yet which is why you were given the response you got. If fibre is an option for you %100 look into it and change over.

Yeah, until a couple of months ago, i had a tower across the road from my house but they've removed the tower and Uniti had someone come around and point my dish towards the hills - it's all gone downhill from there.

I've contacted IInet and have someone calling me during the week

Yep having a tower across the road your internet would have been top notch with probably zero dropouts and maximum signal. After being redirected the distance would have been a problem and then who knows what sort of trees are in the way. Line of Sight is king with fixed wireless services. Good Luck!

Im with Uniti and overall its been pretty good, mind you we can see the tower out the back of our place.

Have been investigating 5G wireless options, anyone use this?
