haha......Burgey's rants are enjoyable reading

Unlike any post you've ever made.

And people, stop calling cricket Kallisball. Inane ****. Cricket is about teams not yourself, and occasionally it's entertaining and not about working an abacus.

Daniel Brettig @danbrettig
Feel as though melancholy of Ponting's exit overwhelmed Aust today. Emotion-driven review of his lbw, and no direction in field #cricket

Daniel you're better than this


Well no you're not. But come on

English media were worse in this respect after the series loss. They blamed it all on KP pretty much.

 

[cnerd123]

God I love watching Ozzies get pwned at Kallisball.

 

[Senile Sentry]

What a day of Kallisball!

 

[wellAlbidarned]

so I hear you can really score quickly at the WACA once set

Admittedly I don't like Kallis much either.

Whats this cricket thingy though?

 

[Burgey]

Look, I have to say if some newbie numpties want to call it that then fine, because I have no regard for their views anyway.

Terrible from our blokes, but Amla is just batting so well ATM. Class player.

 

[JBH001]

Ah Burgey, good to see the rants still going strong!

 

[Hurricane]

Hastings is clearly pedestrian and non-threatening.
.

His action is quite laboured.

Graeme Smith's innings was a great example of how at the waca it can be so hard when you start but once you survive the first 30-40 minutes, you can really start flying


I'm putting 2 million on Slater saying something like that tomorrow morning

Legitimately think Indian bookies need to look into this. Forget spot betting, this C9 **** is the future

 

[Flem274*]

Considering Aussie went in with two newbies and Johnson, a session like this was on the cards. They bowled really well in the first innings, but this attack was always going to have a poor session or two. Not one quite as bad as what we just saw tbf, but still Amla was in God mode so whatevs.

And Burgey can suck on my Kallisballs. Kallis' strokeplay is to die for, and whenever he blocks a ball the Chappells of the world blow several blood vessels. What's not to love?

You're entitled to rant if your team doesn't have a go. I don't rant when they lose per se, but that's just ****. You expect it from England or India because they're inherently soft, or Pakistan because there might be a coin in it. But that was just piss poor

Edit: and just for Flem I should say we always expect it of NZ because they're just ****e.

Haha. Mate, I'm not having a go. It's just the first time I've looked at CW for many months and the first page I look at has you having multiple goes. Good stuff. _b

Sadly, I did not get to watch most of the day as I was playing cricket this afternoon (defended 238 by 16 runs). But, I'll try to get in a session tomorrow.

I'll be rooting for the Saffas, I am a Kiwi, after all; but I hope Aus go better tomorrow, and that Kallis makes a ton.
