Re: Bored Help - Pensions - non-Aussies living in Aus
Greg: I still lurk occasionally and I saw this thread. I know a bit about this subject, having done it myself (though things have changed a lot over the last couple of years).

Re: 2015 CWC Final Thread: Craps vs Aussies
Fair enough L Ron, but your boys bowled amazingly well. Honestly I'd say most batting line ups would've struggled to prosper against what Aussie served up today. Definitively don't want to disservice the bowlers. They were brilliant. But the tone really was set by McCullum. Aggressive starts are gr...

The shadow from this end is pretty unfortunate. Local knowledge would have helped. Perhaps NZ would have been better served bowling first.

I should support Australia for this. But they've won the bloody thing loads of times, so winning it once more won't make that much difference.
