Oram prepared to give up finger

He was probably joking, but when he said amputation was the LAST resort, I think he emphasised the 'LAST RESORT' part. Most of the time, the 'last resort' is never taken, and hopefully in Oram's case, it won't be.

Anyway, NZ should let Oram rest the finger until the Super 8's, then see how it goes. Hopefully it'll be better by then.

Sorry to spoil your fun, but...

The Clippers arent as bad as they use to be mate.

Obviously the Lakers were sold out :laugh:
I know, I just remember the line in the movie Bewitched: Nicole Kidman: "Guess what? I'm a witch!". Will Ferrell: "Guess what? I'm a Clippers fan!". It was the only time I laughed in an otherwise dire movie.

Then Fiery says "Guess what? I watched Bewitched"
KiWiNiNjA: "hahahahahahahaha, loser" :p

:laugh: In my defence I was told to get at least one chick-flick before being sent to the video store. I thought it might be quite funny seeing as Will Ferrell was in it. So...not only did I watch it, but I chose it too :ph34r:

Quality program I must add. Reminds me to watch it again.
Hey Oram, don't throw your finger away! There's still plenty of meat on that bone. Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you've got a stew going.

Oram and Styris were the ones who decided that they should go the Clippers game while in LA for 18 hours. Cost them US$200 per seat

Norwood's on Fire
One of the few cricketers to have a song written about him that I know of. The seminal Half Man Half Biscuit's ****ing Hell, it's Fred Titmus. :D

The Nawab of Pataudi played after losing an eye (or most of its vision anyway) & Colin Milburn played FC cricket after losing one, but I don't think he played internationals after his accident.

& of course, Sir Geoffrey is very famously sans a spleen. Not that he'd ever stoop so low as to mention it himself, mind... :whistling
Not relevant to the thread, but Tranmere fans they are :p

Not many of us around like
