In between ads of David Warner spruiking socks.

Judging by the way he speaks in that ad, they probably went with the only take that he got right.

I would have thought Slats was.

 

[God Save Max King]

Still can't believe to this day that Jones actually held that catch, for all the crap I've been hanging on Haddin, he was no Geraint Jones, that bloke was a fair dinkum backstop.

But yeah, Warnie had a big test with the ball too, an incredible individual effort across the series from him, he didn't deserve to be on the losing side.

And it wasn't bloody out Can't really blame the ump though (Bowden ?), I would have given it out on first glance. It was one weird test match even before it began with McGrath's accident and Punter's choice to bowl

Your appreciation thread jinxed him you flog.

Bit of Bruce Yardley about Agar

He reminded me of Gower, the lofted shots in particular and the clips off the legs. He just looked so smooth, poor bugger deserved 100 but he got that far by playing that way so you can't blame him. Was one of the more astounding few hours of cricket you will see. At least we have #3 settled now

born and bread victorian

His dad was a baker ?

BOY OH BOY, WOWEE @ AGAR!

Wish I stayed up past lunch now to watch the end of his innings! To think he is only 19..

 

[Plugger35]

Haven't you learnt anything from Sooz? It takes time for your posts to travel across the world due to the time difference

Learn to internetz.

Reminds me more of Vettori than Gower, both with his bowling and batting.

 

[Duritz]

Agar reminds me of this guy I saw debut for Australia who hit 98, I think his name was Agar.

 

[Wingard2Butcher]

i'm glad agar was included in the squad

 

[Plugger35]

The media have gone Agar crazy today.

Nathan Lyon must feel like the forgotten man, poor bastard has probably played his last test for Australia.

 

[Kipz]

Haven't you learnt anything from Sooz? It takes time for your posts to travel across the world due to the time difference

And you'd recognise a bad decision if you saw one

Aggers wasn't offended. He is a champ! Best commentator in the world (along with Harsha)

Boycott was surprisingly good about the decisions as well.

Nah he hasn't, his last name is Lyon. A dominant name in Australian sport

Ross Lyon, Garry Lyon. Surname royalty!

I made the Yardley comparison while he was playing cavalier pull shots off Finn. The way he batted there after puts him in a different realm to Yardley.

Yeah, I wouldn't either, such an obscure kind of rule and very difficult to pick up.

Forgot about McGrath, missed two tests because of that I think.

Thinks he's so f***ing exciting and shit, bloody channel 9 a few weeks ago thinking they'd have the power to affect team selection. Their cricket coverage is proving as bad as seven's football coverage.
