    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    All us 'clowns' who said his last wicket in tests would be Siddle at Lords are lookiing good at the moment.

    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    Because it's a blindingly obvious point?

    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    Had a dream that Clark came in for Siddle and took 6 wickets. If they put Clark in, we'll win, if they leave Siddle in, we'll do well. If they put in Lee I reckon we'll lose. And I'm a Lee fan, but he doesn't have the bowling into him - barring injury to the other options he shouldn't play in...

    The Greatest All-Rounder of All Time

    The answer to the OPs question is: Shane Watson anyways.

    The Greatest All-Rounder of All Time

    Not really. Today's the first time I've seen this thread, and upon seeing the title I thought "you can't have that thread without Bhupinder Singh!!". He's remarkably constant in he's monomania regarding Imran Khan being the best allrounder ever and ceaseless in his vigilance against any...

    Key Ashes Figures as Harry Potter Characters

    Jamees got this all backwards. Ricky Ponting - Harry Potter. was just a kid when he first had fight. Natural leader, the man for a crisis. Allan Border - Dumbledore. Was instrumental in ending the long period when terror and evil ruled. Potter's achievements finally overshadowed him. Michael...

    Michael Clarke possibly out of the 4th test?

    We're so stuffed if that's the case. Cmon Pup make yourself available. You know Ponting is going to lose the toss and that England will bat for two days in stubbornly brilliant sunshine in any case.

    Are you England in Disguise

    Get your kicks in while you can, is the theory here I reckon.

    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    Been impressed with Swann's armball in the last couple of tests - can't recall the last off spinner who effectively used that as a variation, rather than throwing a doosra...

    A.F.L Thread

    Did laugh how they made a point of saying that Lovett-Murray doesn't smoke, as a defence against the ecstasy tablet being his. Because there are a lot of AFL footballers who smoke I imagine. And only smokers would use a party drug. 8-) Not saying he's guilty, but it's a weird argument.

    Yeah, all pretty good besides "Battle For the Abyss" which was pretty by the numbers 40k pulp.

    What does "Pigeon Toed" mean?

    Tony Greig memorably labelled a "pigeon toed peabrain" as well.

    My poor contribution: Hey Derek, when are you going to drop Magnum on us? You don’t unleash a shark til you’ve tamed it Hey, Hansel’s in there talking smack about you! It’s that damn Hansel… he’s so hot right now Oh my god, it’s a walk off! Lets have a good clean walk off It’s not...

    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    That's judging him on the basis of a series where with an injury problem he turned in by far his worst performance to date. When he's bowling well, which has been the case for the significant majority of his test career, he puts a stack of pressure on the batsmen.

    I'm in - given how Fred and jimmeh are going I REALLY apreciate Hansel.

    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    Clark for Siddle and Haddin (if they're certain he's fit) for Manou should be the only changes for Aus. Think Johnson showed enough improvement to suggest he's regaining he's mojo somewhat. I'd boot Broad unless Flintoff doesn't come up. Bopara must be getting close as well.
