    *Official* Group A Discussion - Pakistan, West Indies, Australia, India

    yeah, as I typed it I was wondering why I'd do that... hopefully he escapes my efforts!

    A.F.L Thread

    Do you reckon Geelong will have to let anyone go to fit in the cap? Harley going would let them move someone new onto the veterans list and save some $$ that way, in addition to his own pay. Who do you reckon you'd be prepared to trade if it came to it? WCE would consider something...

    Mystery Draft V.2 (1989-2009)

    Well, he's dire with the ball, so if I could as nominal selector/coach talk to the skipper and tell him to stop giving Thilen a bowl, I would do so, but happy to see what others think about such a change. Not griping about how you've run the sim btw, its been ace. Just wish I could get...

    Will be really annoyed if the weather lets India off the hook here.

    Should Smith have been allowed a runner?

    From what I read, the umps said they were inclined to refuse Smith the runner, but were happy to leave it up to Strauss. That's that's accurate, that's pretty ****ty from the umpires. It's their job to uphold the rules, not the opposition captain, whose got a massive conflict of interest. If...

    A.F.L Thread

    Blues consider trading Fev They probably won't, but Sydney would suddenly avoid bottoming out if he goes up there, and the Dogs would be an awesome team. The crux would be - could you stop him acting like a human bar-mat, and what are you going to have to give up to get him. I would love to...

    Seeing Hussey bat at four just makes it harder again to argue that Clarke merits a spot atm... :( On the other hand, Hussey's found some form! :)

    Mystery Draft V.2 (1989-2009)

    At this stage, a couple of the problems in my team are becoming apparent. They're named Ross Taylor (the opener) and Dwayne Bravo - I knew they would hurt when I had to pick them, but they've been really crap. Taylor's accrued 659 runs @ 23.5, in 29 innings, at a snail's paced SR 29/100...

    Mystery Draft V.2 (1989-2009)

    McGrath was so good in that last series - can't believe he shot the Warriors out to win the match in the second test. Samaraweera with a double and a century in the one match is pretty awesome as well.

    Have *** to play better : Kirsten

    Saw this and had a good lol. Probably right - although I reckon you're better abstaining the night immediately before a big match - you're a bit more on edge in a helpful way imo.

    Should Smith have been allowed a runner?

    Nor substitute fieldsmen tbh. Allow them, but with the proviso that if you go off the field and are replaced with a sub, you can't bowl again that innings.

    Should Smith have been allowed a runner?

    Cramping isn't an injury, it's a conditioning issue. To quote Ian Healy, you don't get a runner for being a fat *******, nor should you get one for lacking the fitness required. Maybe it was an extreme level of fitness required in this instance, but one of the things that makes someone a...

    Don't really care about this Mickey mouse tourney, but the chance to put India out of a tournament is always good. Would lol if we did so. Esp as SA have already committed their ICC tournament/home showcase implosion.

    Can't believe I'm yet to get off the mark here. My team is going to own everyone in the sim ;) :p

    Draft threads

    There are four at the moment on the front page. Two of which are no-doubt to be short lived poll threads hanging off one of the drafts that has just finished and hence will also probably disappear in another few days. You'll be down to two on the front page within a couple of days. There was...

    hmmm, doesn't work on my computer :( Gives me an "invalid parameter" error message. I've tried it from the command prompt as well as just loading it as normal, on Windows XP...
