Ah, this is brilliant. A wonderful Friday arvo, at work listening to Grandstand cricket on ABC radio with Kerry O'Keefe

The only ingredient absent from this is beer...

oh snap! I didn't realise Grandstand was covering it... *flicks on the radio*

England are so shit.

I want blood.

Jaques has scored another century against England - 107 runs. He's definitely gotta be the future Australian opener, but I don't see a reason why he should replace Langer or Hayden.

WA vs QLD is going to be really interesting, both teams have awesome line ups!

Go QLD!

jahooley · Post by **jahooley** » 13 Nov 2006 10:18 am

Both matches continue today, yeah?

Madmya · Post by **Madmya** » 13 Nov 2006 02:35 pm

yeah mate

I thought McGrath wasn't playing cos he wasn't listed in the batting line up, but right now him and Lee are bowling to england. I wish I was able to watch this.

Or Hayden batting.

Edit: Looks like Lee has already hit strauss

jahooley · Post by **jahooley** » 13 Nov 2006 02:41 pm

Yea I was surprised to see McGrath there too. I guess this would be a good starter for him before the Ashes.
And yea take that, Strauss.

I wonder how fast the delivery was...?

Madmya · Post by **Madmya** » 13 Nov 2006 02:49 pm

yeah would be good to see it.

haha gotta love the poms. Although hate would be a better word.

Stumps on day 2 - ENG 4/256
Freddy Flintoff ( 48 )
K Fucking Pietersen ( 80 )
It will be hard to stop these two putting runs on the board

jahooley · Post by **jahooley** » 14 Nov 2006 12:26 pm

K Fucking Pietersen OUT!! (122 - 82.6 over)
c: Lee at mid on b:Bracken
Fuck I hate this guy

One fan was witnessed calling the left-arm spinner a "stupid Indian who can't speak English".

"Give us a wave Monty," the spectator shouted.

"You can't speak English you stupid Indian, I'll have to say it in Indian. What are you doing playing in the English side, you're not English."

Seriously, waa waa waa. That's nothing. The shit warney copped about his wife in england was far worse I reckon, the only difference was that it had nothing to do with race.

Jesus Monty, have yourself a shave, take that turban off and stop crying ffs

jahooley · Post by **jahooley** » 15 Nov 2006 12:34 am

Madmya · Post by **Madmya** » 15 Nov 2006 12:39 am

Steve Waugh would be loving that - the Mental Disintergration has started before the series even has...
1-0 Aus in the mental war.

jahooley · Post by **jahooley** » 15 Nov 2006 08:17 pm

Fuckinnnnnnnnnnnn hurry up friday!
I wanna go see the Redbacks get cained by England.
I'll have to boost it there on the bike straight after work and maybe catch the last few overs between tea and stumps. Then all day saturday.

Sunday....will depend if i'm hungover or not.

Madmya · Post by **Madmya** » 15 Nov 2006 09:09 pm

you'll be right! Consider it training for the ashes... that's if you got tix to the ashes.

Actually, who did get tix?

We've probably been over this before but I'm too lazy to look back. I've got tix to day 1, 2 and 4. Day 2 I'm with the fanatics.
