Australia v New Zealand 2nd Test at the MCG December 26-30

[Pakenhamsaint]

There was a bigger cheer for the NZ anthem and it wasnt just the Kiwis cheering.

Shameful that we don't have an indigenous verse in our anthem

Does anyone even listen to the anthem anyway?

 

[StillAtLarge]

Joe Burns could have at least brushed his hair

He'll have plenty of time to brush his hair in the sheds when he gets bowled inside 4 overs

 

[Stax on the mill]

Good luck to both teams. Let’s hope it’s a memorable and great test match.

Australia is going to win the test by an innings, but it's going to be soured by that God awful excuse for an anthem.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Morning all.

I don't know much about NZ indigenous languages, but the problem in Australia is choosing which language you sing it in? That being said, I do love the NZ anthem being sung in Maori (and that it's before the English verse).

bit of swing from Boult on the 2nd ball...

Perhaps, but judging by their art I doubt their song writing would be anything to get excited about...?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Good flight from Boult

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Pitch looks brown - could be tough work for the bowlers

maybe not

 

[k31th]

Burns... that's a fail; great inswiging yorker from Boult

 

[Gough]

How many bloody Kiwis are there?

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Well.

That was a peach.

 

[PT Bar None]

Wow!

 

[Barrybran]

Joe Burned

Edit: Morning all

M23 is just Kiwis.

 

[Dez!]

Anyone else not surprised?

Very good ball but what the f*** is with the attempted booming driving first ball?

 

[Scorpus]

That's an insane ball

 

[Gough]

Duts needs to send the border force cops in there and thin out their ranks.

 

[Blue Arrow]

Almost Marsh like.

 

[Chism]

Cracker of a delivery.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Really focused, calm celebration there

Reigned it in. Almost like they consciously didn't want to allow themselves to get carried away by the situation
