England fans - who do you want to win?

[Gloucefan]

I use firefox, don't know why though. My mate who fixed my computer said I must.

 

[Anil]

want sri lanka to win, australia will win...

 

[PhoenixFire]

South Africa.

 

[Shoggz]

Sri Lanka (primarily as I put money on them before the tournament )

Then:

New Zealand
South Africa
Australia

in that order.

Plus RSA were never getting my vote. TEAM ARROGANT IMO

Broken record.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Sri Lanka, even after their kick in the teeth to the Australia v Sri Lanka spectators/viewers.


New Zealand are extremely dull to watch and are mostly mediocre, as my dad says when Italy win 1-0 borefests in football "they'll do away with the game".

South Africa are also dull, lacking in character and are somewhat manufactured (bowling is mass produced seamers and robotic batting - all a bit devoid of flair). They've got the witness who's obviously a tosser. Also they're a bit of a bully team who don't like it up 'em - which isn't a particularly endearing trait either.

Australia win more than enough as it is.


Sri Lanka winning would be the best for cricket, they've got a few exciting players, some character and an enthusiasm for the game.

NZ and Sri Lanka first, New Zealand have always been by second/third team and this Sri Lankan side is just cool. Then the Saffers I guess cos they've not won it before and Australia are last by default.

Scaly - nothing more boring than watching Collingwood and Bell bat together..

I wouldn't say NZ are that dull though. Perhaps you could comment on whether you find these guys dull?

Fleming - one of the most classical batsmen going round

Taylor - NZs most exciting young batsman since Macca

Macca - tbh there is nothing dull about Macca

Oram - I agree that his bowling is dull, but his batting is anything but.

McCullum - An attacking lower order player who recently scored the fastest world cup 50.

Bond - probably the best ODI bowler going around at the moment...

Fulton, Styris, Franklin, Gillespie, Vettori, Patel, Mason, Marshall aren't anything special though, I agree.

As much as I hate saying it, I'd have to agree with that. Collingwood is great when he's smashing it around at the end of an innings though.

Weren't you just chastising your countrymen the other day for presupposition in his direction?

(And this is not a comment about the person Blaze was commenting on in any way)

Broken record.

More of a stuck one IMO, though I'd love to break it personally.

 

[Richard]

South Africa.

One of the things I like most about you being on here is there's another Englishman who likes South Africa (not counting Kev who has connections there).

Not that I remember...

well i am not exactly bashing scaly for his view on NZ. I just want an honest opinion from him about the players I mentioned.

it's a bit different to just quoting his post with a and saying 'here comes scaly with the kiwi bashing again'

 

[Richard]

Hmm, fair enough I suppose.

I won't say anything further on the board because I've promised the company I won't.

Can't stand the thing, I'm oldschool all the way.

Would still use Windows 3.1 if the thing supported all the stuff I use.

This one is simular to IE but does most things Firefox does

 

[GIMH]

IE7> Firefox IMO

Not sure what you're unsure about there... my comment to Blaze or my comment that I was not commenting on EX*ahem*you-know-who.
