Fork out for 89 and Tozzies lose 3 quick wickets.

445 to win in 80 overs.

What's the point in Queensland playing for the draw? Surely they may as well have a go. Whether they draw or lose, they still wont win the Shield.

Would be good to see Burns get a ton and Fork a michelle here.

Aussie cricket certainly aint what it used to be. Surely an Aussie State team of the early to mid 90s would have had a crack. Can you imagine Stuart Law lying down and waving the white flag?

by Big Dog Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:56 am

Qld stated they would go for the runs but it seems they are just playing the game out.....disappointing

by Henry Tue Mar 26, 2013 12:07 pm

Perhaps Darren Lehmann isn't the bold new coach to take Australian Cricket forward afterall?

by horace Tue Mar 26, 2013 12:11 pm

no real chance of getting the runs.... so they have crabbed it out ...bit like the poms

Except England retains whatever trophy it is at stake. Queensland effectively loses with a draw.

by horace Tue Mar 26, 2013 12:16 pm

aye....but people will remember the dire drawn series where the poms were outplayed by the locals

by horace Tue Mar 26, 2013 12:17 pm

....and slaw would not have put out the white flag....he would have pinched it and then thrown at opposition outfielders trying to take catch....top bloke the slaw

Mr out on the stroke of tea to Butters

Actually I think the entire NZ v England series has been overshadowed by homeworkgate and 4-0, because that was pretty farking funny.

by horace Tue Mar 26, 2013 12:51 pm

but we are carp....the poms are meant to be the 2nd best team in the world

Hearty congrats to the Tozzies, who are within an hour of claiming another Shield title. Personal congrats to lardy and BD. Very Happy

by Henry Tue Mar 26, 2013 1:30 pm

And what a wimpy effort from Queensland. Fully justifying Lardy's thread title.

by horace Tue Mar 26, 2013 2:03 pm

aye..... the strings on the banjo have been slack

I gather the Bulls wanted to concede & finish early but Tassie kept them in the field to try to get the outright, hence the go-slow by Qld. Expect a mega whine from Boof at the end. Laughing

I think this thread has more henry posts than all the qbilly fans combined

by Big Dog Tue Mar 26, 2013 3:14 pm

So Tassie are Shield champs for 2012/13. Fork gets MoM.
A fitting result for Tim Coyle, the most underrated coach in the country & to Punter who finally gets a Shield win in his trophy cabinet.

by skully Tue Mar 26, 2013 3:22 pm

Part time in Hobartville. boozin

A certain Tozwegian suggested via text that the Tozzie squad should be sent to represent Aus in Ashes. I concurred we could do a lot worse.
