Get inside? Looked like he was simply trying to ask Faf a question, which would be expected for any captain of any international cricketing team.

The Proteas seem a bit touchy and sensitive on this, and the need for a goon squad is unnecessary. He might need that kind of security strolling through downtown Johannesburg, but not when a journo's asking you a question in Adelaide airport, of all places.

ok, i had sent him a pm so as not to further derail the thread, but im happy to entertain the mob.

it was in the shits thread. he has since edited it, as i pointed out it was against the rules, but he posted my name, and work details, that he had somehow tracked down. my post accusing him of intimidation is still there though. page 913 viewtopic.php?f=6&t=958&p=1762310&hilit=unregistered#wrap

it was a long time ago. apparently my memory is better than i thought.

Adelaide Oval booze & food prices. Nothing short of a farce. If they only knew how more & more people are smuggling their own grog in now.
The reasoning behind the price increases is laughable & smacks of poor business planning.
Most overrated joint in the land.

$9.20 for a beer is ridiculous.
When the place was all new and shiny you tolerated paying $8.50 for a beer..........but at $9.20 that is bullshit!
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

Wedgie, Yes myself and family are from Belfast in the Occupied North.

I have never mixed religion with the armed struggle against British rule.

I'm quarter Irish but have no idea which part of Ireland my grand father came from (and never will).
Not sure which Irish team to cheer for in Euros, etc!
My partners a pom so maybe I'm a Northerner as it feels like my territory has been occupied by the British! :lol:

The "joint" isn't over rated, people rave about the place pretty much regardless of the event they go to see there (Bar concerts as the design of the stand roof is to "bounce" the sound back down, enhancing crowd noise at sporting events) . The pricing however is beyond reasonable and has tipped into the ridiculous.

Double whammy. Not only is the grog too expensive, the spliffs on offer aren't up to snuff either.

The Saffer security guard throwing his weight around to keep the microphone of some C9 schmuck out of Faf's face. Absolute gold, especially as Faf was wandering along, cans on his ears like he's Kanye ******* West. :lol:

I for one applaud the efforts of the South African team's security. Anything to stop us having to hear that ridiculous accent is a good thing.

I just hope Faf doesn't hold a grudge after this tour, I mean, a grudge is nothing more than a plus to pork your core

Both Mrs. Jase and I sitting watching our laptop screens as we are in a queue to buy tickets to see Harry Potter - The Cursed Child in London and getting pumped when the number of people in front of us drops by 10... She is currently number 9100 in the queue and I'm at 5895...

What an exciting life we lead... :)

It makes my work colleagues laugh when I bring a jar full of 5 cent pieces and feed them into the vending machine then press coin reject and out pops a $2 coin, winning.

The hysteria from the media/social media when there's a near-miss in the air.
So...the equipment and well-trained staff did their job. We should be happy about that.
