First 4 are flogs, Kwaka was trying to delay play when Bumrah got him last ball. Labush is a yappy prat. Smith is doing a great job lowering his average innings by innings. Boland the only likeable one in the whole bunch.
The irony is that Redpath was bailed by Charlie Griffith in Adelaide in 1968. I've followed cricket avidly since I was 10 years old and seen a lot of poor behaviour creep in. When I played in England there was almost no back chat when you were at the crease. Our captain would tell you to pipe...
Redpath was a gentleman among a bunch of bogan thugs in that 74 series. Odd how the term Mankad came into being when Greg Chappell bailed an English batsman backing up without warning.
Boycott missed the 74 Ashes, rumoured to be annoyed at Denness taking the captaincy.
I met Ian Redpath at...
Which is worse, culpable homicide or rape?
Robert Kennedy was at Monroe’s home in the afternoon on the day she died. In the days leading up to her death, according to Summers’ reporting, Monroe told a friend that she was “very much in love and was going to marry Bobby Kennedy.”
So many...

THE SHIFTING GEOPOLITICS OF ECONOMIC HIT MAN STRATEGIES
Lecture at Plymouth State University | Plymouth, NH

I read that book years ago when I came back from working in Suhartos Indonesia. I wasn't surprised by the revelations. I had firsthand experience of the bribes paid via consulting firms such as Price Waterhouse, Ernst and Young and the heavy hitters such as Kellog, Brown Root.
KBR, Inc. is a...
Bill Clinton says hello. Precedent set and JFK was no saint. Democrats 2 Trump 1 and there's Edward Kennedy, long term Democrat senator who got away with culpable homicide. So the genuinely sad times started before you were born. Going back to FDR, he had Lucy Mercer Rutherfurd as a long time...
Good player but train wreck personal life. Lots of guys with less talent had better careers. Drugs and gambling, the two most advertised products on channel 7 were his downfall.
54 years ago I took a girlfriend to see Pink Floyd. After 10 minutes she said "don't like this band, let's leave". So we did and I didn't score score with her.
She was big into the Jackson 5, ergo, I don't like Michael J or his brothers/sisters.
Edit:
Someone bootlegged the concert.
She's...
You make a good point here. One thing we lacked was someone who would run both ways, not something BS was good at. Used to annoy me seeing him jog back rather than use his speed to put pressure on opposition on the rebound.
I hope he stays. Libba probably won't last beyond next season and Jack will be handy in the middle. However, if he wants out regardless, good luck to him.
Apart from speed, Bailey Smith doesn't tick the boxes we need. He laid 1 tackle in the 2021 GF. For a guy with a so-called big tank and speed, not many run down tackles there. He can take his handbag and hair products to Geelong for all I care.
If we can't find a spot for Jack Macrae on the...
Cherry picked stats. Doesn't mention the clangers by Williams or the lack of tackles by some other players.
McNeill took the best contested mark of the game, laid a tackle on 50 for a free kick. He put the ball onto Darcy's chest.
We offed Lachie Hunter but he ran his guts out on the wing...
