Inness should have been picked over Bracken

I don't know much about Inness but what i do know is that Bracken is a bloody ******! I know people who know him personally through grade cricket and he's an arrogant **** now that he's in the NSW side, so who knows how this will get to his head getting into the Australian side.
I hope it doesn't destroy his game this arrogance

Oh Im sure he isnt that bad , at least not compared to Brad Williams , he isnt bowling as badly as he is capable of in this match but he is one arrogant **** , only Bracken is actually decently intelligent (for a fast bowler anyway) , Williams intelligence is that of a man from the most basic bracket of man kind , my lasting memory of him will be asking him for an autograph after watching the Warriors train in Sydney last year , I gave him my pen & he to his suprise it wouldnt write , he then fiddled around with it for a bit (making a series of grunting sounds as he did so) before I intervened by telling him you had to push the little button on the top first , "Oh , sorry bout dat kid".Slats4ever said:

hahahah that story takes the cake.
most of the Australian fast bowlers are dicks to the crowd
Except Brett Lee and now Kasprowicz, two "absolute sweethearts"

There are a few exceptions , Shane Harwood from Victoria is a real nice guy , when he was in Canberra he even took the time out to come & do a training session with my under 15's rep squad , Jason Gillespie & Stuart Clark are generally pretty good aswell , but the two worst cases I have ever seen are Damien Wright (at the PM's XI a couple of years back a few kids were asking for his autograph & he snapped "shutup , Im concentrating") , however nothing can compare to the king of all a%$h*l#s Andrew Ryan Caddick , now he's a **** , at this years PM's XI fixture he wouldnt sign an autograph for some young kids so a few fat old men (who'd had a few) began the familiar chant of "(insert name here)'s a ******" , most players have the sense to ignore it but he took it very personally & after a few overs he came over & began yelling abuse back , "they inbreed ya all in Canberra or something!" , what an idiot , not the first time either as he got in trouble for giving some kid the finger at the MCG.Slats4ever said:

Well unfortunately since C7 went broke the only domestic cricket which gets shown on TV out here are the ING games & Inness barely gets a game for Victoria in the OD comp.Richard said:
Therefore he rarely appears on TV & lots of people dont know much about him , Bracken however has a habbit of doing well in televised games , perhaps just a small coincedence.

But an incredibly significant one. And not a unique one. Blackwell scored half-centuries in successive C&G televised (C4, terrestrial, rather than pay-TV Sky) matches v Kent. The second especially played, I don't doubt, a huge part in his selection for ODIs.iamdavid said:
People placed far, and I mean far, more stall on that one innings than his entire List-A Limited-Overs career. They took virtually no notice; they preferred to believe they could judge his potential, and that innings had shown them what he could do.
Naturally, they ended-up with red faces after the VB Series.

Talking of Aussie left-armers, I went to see a charity game in which he was playing for Worcestershire, and he took my autograph book and gave it to Anurag Singh straight away and ignored any attempt to ask him to sign the book. I can't really wish bad luck on him though as he's rubbish anyway.
Oh well, at least he doesn't have a face like Matt Mason's :saint:

Interisting how we can't even watch highlights of our overseas Tests yet someone the other side of the world can and can also watch the domestic game too. It's a total disgrace.Craig said:
Mclauren, he did a lot of good for English Cricket, but selling the rights to CH4 is something I'll never forgive him for. Ok the coverage is better, but at least when it was on the BBC we actually got to SEE SOME DAMN CRICKET rather than have the usual excuses of "it's not a big series" or "it would interfear with the late night schedualing".
