    Can't recall when I last saw such abject cowardice from an international batsman, tailenders or not. Dougeh.

    Don't get how that referral was "umpires call". They've got monkeys working this system.

    Seem to recall that many were calling for Benn's head before this match. :whoops:

    Jeez I love Clarke.

    Undermining equals diminished confidence equals more poor decisions equals a counterproductive move. Saw that happen to Benson the other day, and he ended up making himself unavailable (citing a lillness) and Rauf had to take over. Love how you expect umpires to be perfect and yet you're happy...

    And fired Shiv out on Friday, all while undermining the umpires, slowing the game down, and encouraging brattish behaviour from the players.

    Roach looks like a real prospect doesn't he.

    Hating the referral system so far. Think we say so far that this system has added more negatives than any benefits. As was always the case, it's a massive over reaction to the Aus-Ind SCG test of a couple of years ago.

    How do you rate SA selectors?

    Well, they've managed the talent well enough to allow the players to bring their team to the top of the world, so they aren't doing too bad a job. There are always hard luck stories. I understand that Ntini might be getting a spot to get him to 100 tests for optic issues rather than merit -...

    Who is a better young all-rounder Watson or Bravo

    **** me dead.

    Ginger firball is up.

    A.F.L Thread

    Think he'll prove to be an awesome coach. I don't think its a coincidence our wheels fell off when he left last year.

    The 90s and 00s banlisted draft thread

    My turn? I'll take Michael Vaughan. Strauss, Vaughan, Younis, Flower, Flintoff, Streak, MacGill

    The 90s and 00s banlisted draft thread

    Considered Thilan ahead of Strauss, but Andrew's done a bit more against top bowling attacks IMO.

    Select THREE middle order batsmen: Best of 00s

    Went for Ponting, Dravid and Kallis. Would probably have done so anyway, but especially with Hayden and Sehwag the openers, and Gilly the probable keeper, two guys like Rahul and Jacques give the middle order a very nice solidity about it.

    Lol Dougeh. Kiwi members to hold that against him forever.

    Is Ricky Ponting a better batsman than Brian Lara?

    Why not?

    Is Ricky Ponting a better batsman than Brian Lara?

    immaterial to the correctness or otherwise of you points here, people starting their posts with "err" as a rude noise of derision is a massive pet hate. There are a few repeat offenders on CW and tbh, I'd vote for permabans if it was a regular abuser.
