Really Obscure Elevens

[Fiery]

And it's a pretty ill-conceived list is what I said.

It's just a list of players I think are obnoxious dude. I've even included a few kiwis in there for ya. I'm not expecting any awards for the most "well-conceived list of obnoxious cricket players"

 

[Mr Casson]

And I don't care how many Kiwis you put in there to make it look like you're not biased. I really don't give a toss WHERE the players you've listed are from; I just fail to see how Langer and Clarke in particular are obnoxious.

OK, I don't like them because they're Australian. All Australians are ugly, stupid and smell bad. Happy now?

Come on fella's, sort it out...let's not kill it for everyone else.

I've no issue with Clarke at all, seems a fairly humble lad considering he's:

a) supremely talented;
b) young; &
c) Australian!

Langer I wouldn't call obnoxious, more sanctimonious perhaps? Bangin' on about religion and all. I've no issue with anyone having beliefs, but you don't hear atheists speaking about how great their belief in a meaningless & random universe is, do you?!
