I read that as 'David Boon Faces' and was immediately very afraid.

Luckily, the first bit was about him removing his underpants - a much better proposition (especially if he were to then cover his face).

Welcome to CricketWeb - yes, I do find it amusing.

When a Danish newspaper published a cartoon of David Boon without a moustache, Tasmanians from around the world started rioting.

David Boon keeps in constant communication with his fellow Tasmanian Ricky Ponting using a series of high-frequency clicks and whistles which can be heard halfway around the globe.

So was Edgbaston really Boonie's fault?

Some of them are absolutely brilliant. Often, the ones I like are the ones with the lower marks.

In games of skill, an inexperienced player may be referred to as a NOOB, meaning he is the complete opposite of David Boon.

Boonie's tears don't cure cancer, but they do cure a hard earned thirst as they are 4.9% alcohol.



o lord....

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahaah

This is singularly the greatest site ever, better even then The "Huns yellow pages", and I don't say that lightly

"David Boon once straddled an Emu and rode it into Australian parliament demanding the eradication of all girly drinks. As a result, Daiquiris were banned in three states."

When a player is out for no runs, it is called a Duck. This is due to David Boon's penchant for Chinese BBQ Duck. He would often step up to the crease only to leave immediately, saying 'I'm out for a duck'.

Genius.

She may smile now, but in a couple of minutes she'd find out just how Boonie dislikes an amateur pourer.
