Australian cricket in crisis

Although when horrie yells "poop poop" it's because he needs the carer to change his adult diaper.

Doesn't he go "beep beep"?

Horrie or Toad?

I don't know what all the fuss is about. This is not about whether he will perform well. It is about crowd numbers. People will flock through the gates & turn on their televisions just to see Luke Wright play. FACT.

Well beepbeep was horrie's C4 monicker. Don't know what Toad was using.

You, Sir, are a prejudist.

This makes my job of accosting you in the street a lot easier.

Whaaaaaaaaaaatttt??

I suspect WWW was employing a faint soupcon of irony.

At first sight, a lot of peeps think Dello is from Sutton.

Ah hahahahaaaaaaaaaa

Fixed a bit.

From anyone else on the forum, that would be classed as humour. From Trev, it might just be fantasy.

Good times.

Always rated Dave Warner, me.

Sehwag rated Warner. That was good enough for me.

Re: 'Australian Cricket In Crisis'; a much-used derisive term, I notice that with Mitch Johnson's retirement, the former mascot Steve Smith becomes not only captain but the only player in the side to have debuted in Tests before 2011. While we are picking older players, there has been almost a complete turnover of the side since that 2010-11 Ashes rinsing.

I think you'd struggle to find a test team around the World that still has its core players from 2010-11. England certainly don't. Not even from 2013-14.

Phurt. Cook, Bell, Broad and Anderson is a fair core.

I think you'll find Ian Bell has been in retirement since 2014.....

Pietersen, Swann, Prior, Trott is a fair chunk missing as well.

So your 4 are more core than my 4?? *cough*
