Best of The Best

Shahid Afridi Award for (Best post of the week) Like an innings by the great man, it does not have to be very long, to be great viewing. And the Winner is: Slow Love for this click here Summed up most peoples thoughts elegantly

Shane Warne Award for (Best thread of the week) Like his bowling it must be interesting but just like his private life it can also be controversial. And the Winner is Tomm NCCC for this click here , top idea this, I hope it takes off

The Skull Award (Funniest poster for the week) Just like the king of the one liner Kerry O’Keefe, can also be serious. And the Winner is: BoyBrumby click here The entire England team sounds good to me, but hey the best side won

The Sobers Award (Most varied poster of the week) The true all-rounder of CW you must be able to contribute to a number of threads. And the Winner is: Prince EWS , has missed a couple of threads but not many, top week of posting

Tony Greig Award (Worst prediction of the week) Will he ever live down that ‘We will make them grovel’ prediction re- the West Indies? And the Winner is: Fiery for this click here we hope this was tongue in cheek not sure how it helps NZ though?

Inzamam Award (Vaguest poster of the week) We are not sure what he is talking about, but we hope he knows. And the Winner is: Fraz for this click here I am starting to become worried, I almost followed this whole diatribe

The Sir Geoffrey Award (Most knowledgeable poster of the week) We were going to call this the Richie Benaud award, but after speaking to Boycs, he assured us he new twice as much as Richie. And the Winner is: No award this week. Richard is a tough judge, however, he would like to make special mention of: Vic_orthodox, Jono and honestbharni


The Bradman Award (Overall CW poster of the week) Simply the best no matter what the debate or criteria. And the Winner is: No award this week

Agarkar/Mohammed award for ('At least their trying' award)
just like the players this award is named after, they may not be quite good enough for any other award, but at least we remember them. And the Winner is: No award this week

The Mike Hussey award for best newcomer (less then 500 posts), not too many have had a great debut and continued success like “Mr Cricket” And the Winner is:
16 tins of Spam his second win, does it show we need some new members?

The Gatting V Rana award for the best debate of the week, and the winners are: no award this week

Saj Award for best rant of the week (following Saj's outburst after the 3rd Test, and no Saj, we don't know what you were doing out there either, it's a sad indictment on the quality of our reserves: And the Winner is: Jono for this click here true, but still a good spray

Marsh/Lillee Award (Best prediction of the week) they took 500/1 against England winning after following-on, and won, um lost. And the Winner is: Jono for this click here It can be a fine line between the ML and the Greigy, but Jono has managed to stay on the right side two weeks in a row


Please remember, these awards are not officially endorsed by CW management

Agreed, and three very good examples of those 50 better threads are...
