Richie: YOU LEGEND

[Bomber Bears]

Legend of the game, especially in the way that he accepts change etc, doesnt harp on about his day. looked a good player from the footage i saw

 

[Johnson#26]

Onya, Richie. Such a legend, and deserves all the good that comes his way. Here's hoping he can continue to skipper the commentry box for a few years yet.

 

[Andrew Mc]

Class personified.

 

[puddles]

Well done Rich, icon of the game.

Did anyone else sense a bit of 12th man waiting to happen?
Richie's awesome speech, Chapelli's nervous address, Eddie sitting on Richie's table (Richie's Mrs too), Tubby and Mark's Lawry impersonation, Tony Greig's third word(ish) was "regard"...

 

[Warwick]

Tubby's Bill Lawry impersonation was just about the most embarrasing moment on Australian TV.

Three months agao said Ponting was the best Ashes captain of the past 30 years.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

well after the first white wash since god knows when he may be right

Personally I dont think so but in time he may prove to be.

I agree, i bet bill was cringing at that effort. Also one of the worst commentators alongside O'Donnell and Healy

 

[HBF]

He'd been planning it for months i bet.


Fatheads Diary 5/2/07: AB medal. Get my ugly, fat head on camera while shaking a truely great persons hand.

One slight oversight there lachlan.
No way he would have written in there himself, he would have got one of his PA's to do it for him. TOSSER!

When Benaud went to retrieve the glass-plated Hall of Fame award which he had left under his table, he discovered somebody had trodden on it and smashed it into several pieces. A Cricket Australia staffer collected what was left of it but it will need to be replaced.

Who's the culprit?

Ten bucks on that fat TV gameshow host that was trying to get his ugly mug on camera by sitting next to Richie

[bus24]

So thats where Tony Grieg was.

He probably had a bet on who could smash it first.
