Australia vs India First Test - Adelaide Oval - Dec 9 - Dec 13

[Kram]

I miss Warney's old face ... you know, before he DIDN'T have botox or plastic surgery.

What about the blindingly white teeth?

 

[FRUMPY]

I'd rather see the mental disintegration of their second innings....

if it rains enough im sure you will. no need showing the end of a test if it rains all day or for a few days.

 

[Andrew Mc]

Ah yes I have been reminded how boring Paul Collingwood was as a batsmen

Yup, it always amuses me that for how well he did in the first innings, his complete and utter unwillingness to score runs at even a semi respectable rate in the 2nd innings gave Aus a sniff. As soon as they shut up shop, they lost the game.

 

[Banga19]

This innings was McGraths only 0/100+ in test cricket.

Really? Imagine all of the muttering he would done to himself that day...

 

[Neese]

Blah weather, my one day off this week and rain. Worse I am off to the dentist soon

 

[Big Bryza]

i get it, but i don't know why it's needs to be done

i really hope this doesn't continue all summer

Then you don't get it.

The players can express their emotions in whatever way they please. I think the commentators need to stay quiet in moments like these and let the picture tell the story.

COL-LING-WOO-OOD!!!

 

[The Passenger]

Really? Imagine all of the muttering he would done to himself that day...

He only went for 100 in 9 test innings which is a pretty fair effort for over 100 tests (124 tests in total). He took at least 2 wickets in each of the other 8.

 

[legend166]

We need to keep going, Clarke needs to get 408 runs, any declaration would be disrespectful to little bruzzy.

Just so you know, if the board didn't make it impossible for mods to receive thread bans, you'd have a thread ban.

 

[Big Bryza]

I miss Warney's old face ... you know, before he DIDN'T have botox or plastic surgery.

Yeah i miss fat campaigner Warney too.

 

[ManWithNoName]

What about the blindingly white teeth?

Could've been an asset to him as a bowler.

 

[Neese]

COL-LING-WOO-OOD!!!

Booooooooo

 

[eth-dog]

Kids, say no to drugs.

This reminds me of my favourite Love, Actually quote:

"Kids, here's an important message from your Uncle Billy. Don't buy drugs. Become a Pop Star and they give them to you for free."

 

[Neese]

Ha ha, he was great in that

 

[PrideOf]

COL-LING-WOO-OOD!!!

2006. The last time Collingwood did any good at the Adelaide Oval.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Cosgrove should replace Watson at 3

I've heard it all now

 

[Righteo]

Yes, but the attendance at the WACA would be about the same as it is now as well.

What would it be right now? 16k or so?

 

[King Elvis]

Just so you know, if the board didn't make it impossible for mods to receive thread bans, you'd have a thread ban.

Sonny Ofreep, saved by his impunity.

 

[larrikin]

Yes, but the attendance at the WACA would be about the same as it is now as well.

Based on what?

I actually agree that in a 4 test series WA needed to miss with the state of the WACA, but the WA public has supported Test cricket well over the last few years.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

The centre square at the Gabba has shortened the careers of most ruckmen who've played there enough.

Genuinely curious. Is that what shortened the careers of Keating and Charman?

 

[PrideOf]

I've heard it all now

He meant this Cosgrove.

 

[TN25]

Doesn't look to good at Adelaide Oval

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Cricket was just so much better with Bill in the commentary box.

Something to look forward to. 16 days to Boxing day!!

 

[PrideOf]

Get back to the 2006 Test you ****ers.

 

[Dumpstar]

Couldn't show condensed highlights of Adelaide 06 you campaigners?
