Mark Howard’s perpetual jizzfest over Maxwell still shows no signs of ever ending.

Seriously embarrassing. And ruins Fox’s coverage of the BBL every single season.

 

[NYRB]

Michael Hussey calling this game an "absolute classic". No Mr Cricket, the Stars are god damn awful.

 

[Chuckie357]

Both short’s have played for Australia and now their careers are over, poor mcsweeney

 

[Plugger35]

Big wicket for Milne bowling Short.

Now the other lesser Short is in.

 

[Moonwatcher]

No Chris Lynn tonight.

Do we know why?

 

[Chuckie357]

Do we know why?

Injured calf, strikers put it up on social media

 

[Moonwatcher]

Darcy "think's he's Matt" Short

 

[Plugger35]

Darcy Short turning back the clock to when he was good.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Hope Lloyd Pope can put last match behind him.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Stars will be lucky to win a game with there bowling attack, suppose this game they are batting second

Did you see the 7 jizzfest over JFM’s 20 odd the other night? Embarrassing stuff

[Chuckie357]

[LukeParkerno1]

Weatherald didn’t even get a chance to get going, should’ve waited

He’s just dumb

And cost me lol

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Dope is in what can go wrong

 

[Chuckie357]

He’s just dumb

And cost me lol

It’s a scam, I was ripped because a direct hit run out didn’t count as a wicket to a player in the first game. What a crushing technicality!
