I am REALLY getting sick of the racist ICC...

Ouch!

at February 6th, 2007 (09:26 pm)

New Zealand lost that one all on their own, I am afraid. They just didn't know how to make hay while the sunshined - Fleming and Vincent brilliant at the start, and then ...

Nothing.

It shall be interesting to see if England can really challenge Australia in the finals...

Did Australia Throw The Game?

I mean, we can beat England easier than England. Was this a Calculated Loss™?

The Ode To Mike Hussey

at January 25th, 2007 (11:57 am)

Mike Hussey, the meanest mutherfucker in the history of cricket. Here are some things you may not know about him:

When Mike Hussey goes swimming he doesn't get wet, the water gets Mike Husseyed .
When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night, he checks his closet for Mike Hussey.
Mike Hussey counted to infinity - twice.
Mike Hussey invented every colour. Except pink. Tom Cruise invented pink.
When Mike Hussey does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down.
Mike Hussey hand is the only hand that can beat a Royal Flush.
Mike Hussey gave Mona Lisa that smile.
Mike Hussey can slam a revolving door.
Some kids piss their name in the snow. Mike Hussey can piss his name into concrete.
Mike Hussey once visited the Virgin Islands . They are now The Islands.
Mike Hussey's calendar goes straight from March 31st to April 2nd; no one fools Mike Hussey.
Mike Hussey can speak Braille.
Mike Hussey's tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried. Ever.
Superman owns a pair of Mike Hussey pyjamas.
Mike Hussey owns the greatest Poker Face of all-time. It helped him win the 1983 World Series of Poker despite him holding just a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
Mike Hussey sleeps with a night light. Not because Mike Hussey is afraid of the dark, but the dark is afraid of Mike Hussey.
Mike Hussey doesn't pop his collar, his shirts just get erections when they touch his body.
Once a cobra bit Mike Hussey's leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.
Mike Hussey divides by zero.
Mike Hussey is always on top during sex because Mike Hussey never fucks up.
When Mike Hussey exercises, the machine gets stronger.
Mike Hussey doesn't use pickup lines, he simply says, "Now."
Mike Hussey sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled cricketing ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Mike slog swept the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.
Mike Hussey can kill two stones with one bird.
Mike Hussey once had an erection while lying face down. He struck oil.
Mike Hussey once devoured a whole wheel-barrow full of clay to prove to a friend that the expression "Shitting bricks" wasn't just a figure of speech.
The only time Mike Hussey was wrong was when he thought he had made a mistake.

BJ Hodge
MJ Clarke
A Symonds

5th Test

at December 29th, 2006 (09:31 am)

Well, barring injury, and what-not, it appears that Australia will go into the 5th Test with an unchanged side. Under normal circumstances, I'd say that that was a good thing, but this is the SCG that Australia are playing at. I would have thought that two spinners was a given, but I guess not. Instead of Stuart MacGill, it appears that the selectors are going to rely on Symonds, and maybe Michael Clarke to share the spinning duties with Warne. A bit of a shame, really. I like to see two top spinners playing side by side.

Glenn McGrath has decided to retire after the World Cup 2007.

at December 21st, 2006 (10:20 am)

Shane Warne will retire from cricket at the end of this Ashes series. :(

On the plus side, maybe Stuart MacGill will see a few more games ;)

Selecting A Top Team

If you could select a team, from the current world players from all countries, who would you pick, and why?

australia wins thriller

at March 11th, 2006 (05:20 pm)

Australia just beat South Africa. They won by 1 wicket with 5 balls to spare.

...Andrew Symonds saved Australia after a big middle order collapse from 1-87 it turned to 4-101.

Australian Test Squad South Africa 2006

at March 7th, 2006 (07:17 pm)

current mood: relaxed

So today the Test Team was announced, with a few surprises.
Hodge got dropped... and I'm not understanding why.

But Martyn and Clarke have been reselected - apparently Martyn is definately in the starting eleven! I think perhaps Martyn and Clarke were performing much better in Domestic series than Hodge.

Kaspa and Tait have been reselected as well... I'm surprised Dizzy wasn't picked - but that is my opinion.

So the team?
Here it is:
Ricky Ponting (C)
Adam Gilchrist (VC)
Stuart Clark
Michael Clarke
Matthew Hayden
Mike Hussey
Michael Kasprowicz
Justin Langer
Brett Lee
Stuart MacGill
Damien Martyn
Andrew Symonds
Shaun Tait
Shane Warne

WOooooooooooooooooooot! Australia won! :D

The game before that didn't count. so it's 1-1.

ok fine! it's 2-1.

But 93?! what the hell... that was less than what Graeme Smith made.

*sighs*

BUT WE WON!

Talking Point

current mood: bored

woot... I'm inventing new sections to this community... which isn't really expanding... probably contracting a bit. Oh well, I get talk about stuff I love!

So this section is Talking Point... where we discuss our opinions on this Point:

Who do you believe has been the best Captain for Australia in the recent 20 years - including Vice Captains that have taken over the captaincy for a game.
