And yet, despite your polite request when you first started this thread in July 2023, here we are 18 months later with Tiger posters still trying to make it all about Dusty and Richmond. Another thread they’ve hijacked.

Tigers obviously tanking by booting their best player out for 4 matches. Had very winnable games against Carlton, Port, Saints and Freo. Not so much now.

Hmm. You seem to have quite some experience in this sort of thing. 😀

Hasn’t held you back Aristotle.

From memory I think he got 3 centuries in that series? He did bat well. Arrogant S.O.B though. Apple didn’t fall far from the tree with son Stuart. It was Merv Hughes debut series. In his first test he got absolutely carted. I remember Ian Chappell commentating and saying “The trouble with...

Gambhir hasn’t changed. Probably a bit salty as well. https://www.nine.com.au/sport/cricket/australia-india-fifth-test-2025-sam-konstas-jasprit-bumrah-virat-kohli-andrew-mcdonald-gautam-gambhir-press-conference-20250105-p5l272.html

Probably worried he’d take the opportunity to rain on the Australian’s parade, by saying we got the best of the umpiring and also doctored the Sydney pitch. 🤣🤣

Would have expected better from you kickazz. A very unfair and untrue generalisation. Not all of us so called “fossils” have got an axe to grind with Cummins or his team.

We’ve had a great win. No need to be a patronising smartarse towards a fair percentage of those supporting Australia.

Indians desperate to get home.

Will take those. Siraj channeling Steve Harmison.

Wonder if they’ll open with Starc, or go straight to Boland and Cummins. Certainly can’t risk 3-4 overs of the absolute garbage Starc dished up yesterday. Would just about be game over. On the other hand Starc does have the ability to produce a couple of unplayable wicket taking balls...

Imagine being in the trenches with Aristotle. He’d be just as likely to shoot you in the back and knock off your boots.

The way the ball is jagging around and bouncing is going to make any chase very difficult. It’s not as if our batsmen are technically equipped to graft it out on such a pitch either. It may be best to adopt the Pant approach and attack the bowling as best they can. Otherwise, sooner or later...

Could be very, very costly. Khawaja most likely would have swallowed that one. Hope Smith hasn’t dropped the Border/Gavaskar trophy.

Might need Carey up to the stumps to keep Pant in his crease.

Yes.

Nice catch Carey. Congratulations Webster, he’s had an excellent day.

Gotta get this bloke out pronto. Could take it right away from Australia if he’s still there in 40 minutes.

Aristotle revealing his true colours.

Pant channeling his inner Konstas

Enjoy your ban campaigner! 😡

Get him off!

Dropped catches might have cost India in Melbourne. But “contentious” umpiring certainly didn’t.

Good catch. Nothing shot from Cummins. Just dangled the bat.

Hope he goes on to score half as many test runs as the little maestro.

Shastri seems to be one of the more balanced and fair Indian commentators and supporters.

Excellent 50 from Webster. Great debut and rescue job so far. Shown admirable temperament. Keep it going.

Thanks Sandra Sully.

Been an ongoing problem for a long time. Talented stroke player, but loose, and doesn’t learn from his mistakes
