So..... if McCullum is injured who captains the side? Is there going to be an official vice-captain? Would Taylor accept the captaincy in that situation? Would Hesson offer it? Is Hesson a monumental monkey penis?

Nathan, Stu and then Mrs McCullum is the official order of captains after Brendon.

Haha, Stu would be a popular leader. But you forgot Riley McCullum behind his grandad.

It will be interesting to see how this change of captaincy effects McCullum and Taylor's on field performance. Will Taylor's form fall away? Will McCullum's performance lift as Taylor's did?
Taylor's form will inevitably fall away for a short while. One of the reasons he's been better lately is that we've finally had a period in which we've played a decent amount of test cricket in a year.

Now it's been interrupted.

c. Hold down Ctrl and click to open 4 of the threads, do not hold down Ctrl for the last one to load the thread on the current tab.

Clicks Required: 5


Option A is obviously the poorest choice.

I also hope you use this - to look for new posts as well instead of clicking on last page or whatever.

EDIT: Multi tab owned. Benchmark you ****.
Wow you must have saved literally hundreds, if not thousands of milliseconds over the course of your life through this . For your next analysis can you please tell me - do I browse more effectively when scratching my arse or picking my nose?

Always thought that might be the case. Don't care about him missing meaningless bilateral ODIs.

Anyway, hope the media keep the pressure up on NZC because you can bet NZC just wants everyone to "move on."

Yup, here's the clip. It will be fantastic news if he makes it over there for the Test matches. Veitchy - Frustration with Ross Taylor saga - On Demand Player - Just Sport - New Zealand's Sports Network

When he says there are certain individuals just using the Taylor fiasco to rip into NZC, what former players do you think he's talking about there?
