News breaking, Peter Siddle is done, he retired, he's gone. Sorry NUFAN. Big news.

I’m sorry. I was just so utterly devastated I immediately posted the new thread in pure shock.

fitting that Burgey was too slow in making a thread about Peter Siddle, who retries with a bowling average above 30

There is something fitting about Peter Matthew Siddle retiring today. It is of course David Boons birthday.

Siddle really was the ultimate team man, throughout his entire career when he got to do what he did best, lead the attack he averaged an incredible 17.62.

Siddle started his Test career with a bang, dismissing the great Sachin Tendulkar and he ended it fittingly, an Ashes winner, taking Buttlers wicket, his 221st.

Perhaps Spark was right. The recent Big Bash game where Siddle suffered lung discomfort may have cost him 4 years/125 test wickets.

Ill never forget the Ashes hattrick, no one will. I will always remember the twin 50s, a performance filled with fantasy and imagination. We will all remember his heart.

What next for Peter? Modelling, BBL champ, Fox Commentator, animal activist, RSPCA ambassador, wood chopper? The opportunities are endless. What a career.

I agree with Gnske we should keep both threads going. It will take Aus cricket decades to recover from this

This is actually beautiful.

Him bowling his guts out in 2012 at Adelaide on a pitch that scared Vernon away speaks volumes.

He was a fine bowler for a short period, even if his tenure marked one of the worst fast bowling periods for Australia, with 3 first change bowlers in Hilfenhaus, Siddle and Johnson.
