    Goodbye RT Ponting 'the ODI player' - you were a legend.

    A bit long at 30 mins but shows some ponting runouts Ricky Ponting compilation- THE 'RUN OUT' GENIUS! 30 mins of his mastery. DIRECT HIT KING. - YouTube Tried but couldn't find footage of Viv fielding. But he was as much a genius in the field as he was with the bat. I recall reading of him...

    **Official** NRL 2009 Thread

    This Hunt thing is pretty crazy. Not sure if it will work. I think his skill base is fine and obviously his tackling technique will be above the league's standard, however the two areas he would really need to brush up on are: endurance running (this is more important than speed, not everyone...

    *Official Third Test at Edgbaston

    Actually haven't nailed a job yet. I've got scouts on the ground there and there are available jobs. I'm going with my brother who works there already and who's returning from holidays (kinda ironic going from Uluru to Ballarat for Holidays). I'd prefer barwork or gardening, but I'll take what...

    *Official Third Test at Edgbaston

    Hi peoples, For anyone that is interested, I'm heading to Uluru in Central Aust tommorrow to work (as I can't find anything here in civilization). Hopefully it doesn't piss me off so much that I return in a weeks time. Anyways, I'm not sure what sort of internet access I will have there so I...

    Too many emails

    Yeah I'd done that, but was still recieving the emails And this was why! I've done that now, so I think I'm all good. Thanks to everyone who helped with my couple of problems. I'm now much better informed and in control of my little place on the forum. cheers

    Too many emails

    Thanks - that is what I was doing wrong. :)

    Cricinfo All-time series "Eleven of the best"

    I was pretty disapointed in the Australian team, that I had to have 1 allrounder, 2 pacebowlers and 2 spinners. So I was unable to choose the team I actually wanted which was: Miller, Lillee, McGrath, Davidson, Warne. So I chose Grimmett instead of Davidson, under sufferrance. If possible I...

    Greatest West Indian Batsman

    There should definetly be more options. Walcott, Weekes and Kanhai deserve atleast the respect of being voted on. :ph34r:

    Should games like poker and chess be counted as sports?

    I'm very much of the opinion that a "game" needs to require the aplication of physical skills in order to be classed as a sport. Therefore chess and poker (games that I love to play and consider to be very mentally challenging) are not sports. They fail the Stephen Hawking test (ie. Any game...

    Too many emails

    I was wondering how I can stop recieving emails whenever someone posts in a thread I'm subsribed too. They tend to fill up my inbox. I've tried different things in the CP options, however I seem to be doing something wrong. Also while I'm here, can someone give me instruction how to...

    **Official** NRL 2009 Thread

    Yeah good points. When I started doing it I actually thought that there were going to be more that had left, but I kept going anyway. Also I think I did a diservice to Matty Geyer; looking back I'm pretty sure that he played in the GF and that Aubusson did not. cheers edit - note that...

    Post a comment if you think england are stupid for not taking the follow on!!!!

    strange place to find this thread. (Stupid perhaps) And NO NO NO In modern cricket with flat tracks and fast scoring rates, it is very uncommon (and rightfully so) to enforce a follow on, unless 1.) the team that batted first is unlikely to have to bat again AND 2.) the bowlers are reasonably...

    What should we do with Mitchell Johnson?

    I'm not happy with Warney, cause if ever there was a case for "I blame me mum" then this is it. Sadly however, thats already been used.

    Which team will chase down 500 in Tests?

    Really? I thought England needlessly batted too long. However I was glad that I mostly kept that opinion to myself when Aus looked a remote chance. However as captain, I would definetly have liked to bowl 5-6 overs the night before. If you can't defend 450 then you probably can't defend...
