Erm ... if it wasn't clear, I happily stand informed. I wasn't aware of the details and happily removed the redundant questions on becoming aware of the answers. Whats the problem?

He's talking a load of self-righteous waffle. Who? MaccTaff. I was honest enough to preface a few earilier posts with the disclaimer that I'd never actually played any decent level of cricket (or any at all after high school) and he's taken at as an opportunity to jump up and down on every second p...

FFS. This place. :roll: Of course I've seen the replays of the incident and I was listening to the BBC broadcast in my headphones. It's totally reasonable to say that if he intentionally tried to injure our best batsmen, then that would not be cool. If that was the tactic. Totally reasonable. But by...

Hats off to Archer. I didn’t watch it live but saw the highlights today. He was lethal. Mate I'm not terribly impressed with the tactics either. But I guess that's part of it. Part of fast-bowling in intimidation, and nobody will be intimidated if there isn't a legitimate risk. I think it's a step ...

The Shorks.

Only because I had a saffer mate that would yell, "C'mon the Shorks! Calsberg! Shorks!" every time I saw him.

Fair enough then. I wonder how they "generate bounce with pace" though? In my mind the ball can't really bounce back at a steeper "angle of reflection" than what it was delivered as a matter of physics. At least not without hitting something weird on the wicket surface. But reverse swing doesn't mak...

93 mph is around 149 km/ph isn't that fast. Brett Lee, Aktar, Shaun Tait were bowling around 160 km/ph. Iirc Kallis was bowling 149 km/ph Those guys never consistently bowled around 160kmh. 150+ at the most but never for a prolonged period. Tait could sometimes bowl faster but he sprayed it everywh...

I’m all for stripping UK citizenship where it’s appropriate. But should we be foisting this c@nt on Canada? 25 years in prison here should do, surely (I can’t see a jury acquitting or a judge giving less than 20.). And I doubt the prison population would like him - they’re remarkably patriotic and ...

The point is that nobody would be surprised with a 2019 WC final between any of Wal, Eng, Aus, NZ, SA or Ire. France are an outside bet. FWIW, I think Wales's true ranking is 3rd, possibly 2nd. Their true ranking is number one. Your subjective ranking is 2 or 3 Very much this. I'd be shocked to see...

Something to hang their hat on for sure. Well done Wales. Yeah I was trolling slightly in the OP. definitely a legit accomplishment to be proud about. Good on Wales. In other words you weren't trolling. Wales hitting #1 has really hurt the kiwis and english. Get over it. I'm neither English nor Kiw...

In reality, I think Wales are a legit 3rd with both Ireland and England a bee's dick off it.

ahhh bodyline cricket. If you can't get him out, knock him out. Good for the game surely.

Weird system going on there. Whatever though, the RWC are double points so it will be greatly changed in a couple of months again. Probably. But Wales are legit contenders for sure. We know Australia's win was an anomaly. We're yet to see if the ABs win at Eden park was also a blip, the last kicks ...

The real deal this time. Thoroughly undeserved but I'm sure you'll beat the Wallabies in the RWC anyway. Bask in the glory lads.

The Haka just isn't intimidating any more. Not when you're getting bullied up front every week.

You don't blame him for last 4 years???? WTF man. I am not sure if you have been watching Wallabies games but his selections and tactics have been clueless. Time and time again he's proven to be a very poor test coach. Results speak for themselves. When we lost to England 4 times in the same year h...

I agree about Burke. I reckon had Lilo kicked those two relatively easy penalties early on things would've been much different. Easily possible. Same with the repeated infringements on the line she. the Wallabies were attacking. The ABs sacrificed 3 to prevent 7, and we couldn't even take the 3. BT...

You know what? I think Cheika has played the hand he's dealt about 75% success. I like his character. He's tough but ready to give his boys a chance. He's shit mate. I mean ...

Mog The Almighty

What the Au selectors should learn from this: 1. White and Lilo is not the half combination to go forward with. They looked fine on a dry pitch behind a dominant (at breakdown) pack last week. This week, in the rain and heavy conditions, they failed to direct the side around the park early, when th...

Aw c'mon bro. He was awesome. In any case he was never "just average at best"

He's got some great highlights too...

Yeah I'd generally stick with the team but we need different options at 6 and on the wing.

Hard luck Aus, can't take much from these games anyway. Wallabies will be a threat at world cup. Probably not They will be a threat to Fiji making it out of the pool but that's about it. They might even give Wales some competition. But they're no world beaters. They won't be there at the business e...

Mog The Almighty

Something I wonder with these matches, regardless of what they say, all of the players will be 100% focused on the world cup and most importantly not getting injured. I wonder if once a team gets a decent lead if the losing side just shuts up shop mentally and go into self preservation. I dont thin...
