Opinion NMFC Board Cricket ThreadII - Windies, Big Bash, Pakistan.

[Samsquanch]

Australia 1/0 off the second ball.

Which bad luck charm just tuned in?

Davey Warners?

 

[DuckYeah]

FMD!

 

[DuckYeah]

Usi needs to stop worrying about peace symbols on his boots and just play cricket and Manus mind was on the cocktail franks.. they’ll ****in roll us in this test unbelievable

 

[Sillygit]

If we make 200 this innings we will win.

That "if" is lookin kinda shakey now with those two wickets gone, but i still reckon they can do it.

Or maybe not...

 

[Samsquanch]

Ha ha ha... It could be me. I just came inside after trimming the lawn edges and heard Langer droning on about how Warners should bat. Thought to myself he'll be out now. And next ball.... Prophecy fulfilled.

Candy on his boots and all.

Head gone now.

 

[Lomas]

Extraordinary

 

[Samsquanch]

If Marsh is timed out will it be a hat trick?

I would have appealed by the way.

 

[Lomas]

2 crap shots and two jaffas

 

[gokangas]

Hope someone is checking the betting.................this is a joke.

 

[Samsquanch]

Geez. Insightful stuff. I wonder if the channel 7 commentators are interested in what is going on in the middle or if the off field drama of Mel and Richard being stuck in a lift for a few minutes is really what it's all about?

Trent Copelands will be able to break it down including the distribution of hot chips in the tea break.

The commentary pretty much consists of insightful content from punter, Fleming overdoing the silly names for where deliveries line and leangth, and a lot of absolute drivel.

I love Flem, met the bloke a few years back. He is a cracking bloke, funny as **** too.

Agree - done a few sportsmen's nights with him. great company. Right up there with Merv Hughes, Spud Frawley (RIP), Sam Newman and Rex Hunt. A few others too..........

All good, seems a top bloke, but he overdoes the ‘corridor of uncertainty’ and seemingly endless variations. For my taste at least.

Was about to post the same thing.

If not for Ponting the broadcast would be almost unwatchable. His calls are almost worthy of a $25m house in Toorak.

It is unwatchable - that's why I watch Fox. Not perfect...but much much much better.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Shafique couldn't catch the clap at the Tender Touch.

 

[Marstermind]

Two types of leave - a good one and a bad one.

That was a good one from Marsh.

 

[gokangas]

Marsh a lucky boy. Fuggin go on with it now ffs.

I know its not commercially popular, but geez... a straight man like Harsha or Jim Maxwell does wonders for the commentary... just allows the sillier aspects to shine while not detracting from the cricket

 

[Marstermind]

Labuschagne, Marsh & Aus Extras are all currently the equal leading run scorer for the match - 67.

 

[Marstermind]

For a team who came from way back and actually got ahead in the game, Pakistan's fielding wheels have totally come off.

I wonder if we were better off with commentary teams of two. Stopped the jumping in just to be part of the conversation.

So long as Brayshaw, Flemming, Langer, Hayden and a few of the others get the chop then I think it might work. How do we go about making it happen? Does anyone have David Hill's number? He might like the idea.
