I know...a disgraceful female point of view..BUT...
God Lord...Trent Croad is gorgeous....just every so often can't we have a perv???
Richo is the better player...but I'll take Croad any day...doing anything...especially my house work in his Hawks shorts!!:D :D :D
Is it me, or is it just too easy to bag out Port??? I'm so over the Board today and all the Port bashings....can't we move on and talk something which involves a little more cerebral effort???
Citing Patrick Smith is weak....PLEASE SOME CREDIBILITY!!!
PS...I'm definitely not a Port fan...
Can you tell me if Channel Ten has The Brownlow and are they going to show it in Queensland??
Will we get a live or edited broadcast or none????
Thanks for your help!!
Imperial, that was such acute story and reminded me of when I was a kid in Geelong. I n those days it was a much smaller town and everyone seemed to know someone who played for the Catters. I barrack for the Roos even a a little kid, but from the age of about 10 went to the footy with a...
Hi Rooby,
I am a 37 year old Mum and passionate about footy. I get the feminist thing in footy...BIG TIME!!!
When I lived in Victoria as a kid/teenager I wanted to be a sports journalist..actually I wanted to be Chief Football writer for the Hearld/Sun, but when I went on work experience I...
I have always supported Denis in his belief that he should as a professional get paid the going rate, not settle,
BUT.......
I am growing increasingly tired of what seems to be his new blue and white psycobabble BS....basically he keeps throwing S**T our way and making statements that...
Rightio, so it is more exciting if it is close...but Cricket is never boring!!
You need to sit back and enjoy the little things, the marvellous skills that continue to amaze and improve and learn to enjoy something that isn't "Americanised"...it's like the difference between Mc Donalds and...
Martin Love isn't a dud he's just not the flashest in QLD. I have always thought that Martyn was a good fielder, maybe it's all in which state you live in.
I can't remember a regular test player who hasn't been a pretty handy fielder in the last few years.
Certainly our close in...
I notice that QLD didn't rate a mention in your charge for the shield!! I think we will again be hard to beat. Exceptionally strong batting and tidy bowlers....I think we are still the side to beat.
I agree with you DaveW, Steve does appear to be past his best. I don't think Lehmann should be dropped, but I do think that too often we pick teams on reputation and decent players never get an opportunity to actually show their wares. Lehmann isn't exactly a spring chicken. We don't seem to...
In a few posts people talked about the push for Brett Lee in the Sydney media. Well up here (in Queensland) the push today in the paper has been huge for Martin Love. He was mentioned on many pages and had full articles on him- -big time!!
I have a few questions for Big Footy Users.
1)...
I watched the whole day and feel compelled to say that if those are England's best bowlers available then expect the Aussie batting averages to go up this season. I don't think that Waugh or Gilly will have too many chances to bat (big call I know) because I think we will be declaring on the...
I was only a kid..so maybe time has increased his prowess...but for mine VIV RICHARDS by a mile!!!
His arrogance, the way he walked around, the gum, the look, the amazing shots...he typified a player who was on top of the world and knew it!!
As a kid when Viv scored a duck, or got out...
I said previously on another thread I would like to see them in the same side rather than either or, this is if Dizzy could do with a rest.
Bichel deserves another few cracks at the Poms, he has real heart and can bowl longer than Lee. If it is hot and the Poms actually get stuck in for a...
Deesgal, hope your cousin is doing lots better!!
Thanks for taking the time to write something positive about our club..specifically Stevo.
Can you as a Deesgal tell me what David Schwartz is up to next year...do you know? My weakness I'm afraid!!!
Look what the Adelaide "people" say on their board is their business....let them enjoy the dream...who cares???
Macca35 stick to hurling crap on your own board. I don't think it is reasonable to come on our board and lay your sh1t on us.
Do you really think it is appropriate to get on...
A fabulous post, Tashi!!!!!!!!!!
Well done!!!! It is good to read some positive stuff, especially from someone who seems to have a geniune handle on where we are at!!
I for one am very tired of reading gloomy Arden Street sagas.
Let's look forward to 2003!!
Good idea Briedis!!
I definitely would like to see Bichel play and see Lee play. I think the same pitch and the same opposition is a fairer comparison than Pura Cup v Test, and let Dizzy rest and get back to hi best.
For mine, the jury is still out on Lee. He just doesn't seem to have a...
1. Hayden (pity he couldn't have scored 200 = 100, rather than197 and 103)
2. Glen Mc Grath
3. Punter
4. Giles
5. Warne
Maybe we need a cut off day to tally the votes by and a list of the vote getters. Also I agree with the idea of having to vote in the first test so the votes...
Yeah, I too rarely agree with Eddie, but I think there must be a better way to handle salary and trade negotiations.
Perhaps..and I'm just thinking off the top of my head here, the Players' Assoc. could had a number of negotiators who are payed a set salary by the Assoc. (obviously from...
Good call on the two captains idea!!
It stands to reason that some captains, just as some players, might do better in a one-day format. And it would definitely reduce the stress and workload.
Regardless what anyone says the Tast Captaincy is the hardest sporting job in Australia because...
He had a great "stick it up yer" attitude, which many of the Poms seem to lack. Whatever happened to those arrogant poms of past Ashes encounters????
Beating this lot is not so much fun....they seem so forlorn anyway.
England need someone with unbridled ****iness..like a Deark Randall...
I LOVE THE ROOS.....no matter what goes on ......they are my only TEAM!!! But that doesn't mean that I don't take an interest in other teams or want a particular side to win.....
I really like Hawthorn (my Hawthorn supporter Uncle got me started with the Roos in 75) and my husband supported...
It seems that the vultures are circling over Steve!!!
I LOVE him to bits and think that he does the toughest job in Australian sport admirably!!!
I'm not doubting the ability of Punter or Gilly, but are they ready to take on THE top job???
I'd be interested to hear what people think...
I didn't see Tugger's innings as in QLD we only get the coverage from 2.30pm as the host city, so I can't comment on whether or nnot he looked woeful, BUT I do know that my heart is heavy with sadness when I think of him retiring!!!! He's just such a decent bloke as well as a great player!!
Two issues/posts to comment on:
1) No-one is questioning Micky's shinboner spirit while at the club; it's just disappointing that he couldn't have taken a deep breath and stood tall like the champion he is and said...."what can I do NOW for this club which has been the centre of my life and...
Just to let you know I voted for Tests and I'm a woman. There are women out there who SERIOUSLY love their cricket like I do!!
My husband came home today and was dismayed that there was cricket on...he didn't even know the test started today and we live in Brisbane!
Bad news is that it...
Ian Botham was petty darn good and Derek Randall too.
Can we add wicket keepers??
Scruffy old Alan Knott was a good one!! Always looked the most untidy pom out there but kept okay!!
