***Official 08/09 Sheffield Shield comp***

You can never have too many Spivs on the forum.

Must be Wayne Holdsworth....

Hasn't the Suburban Boy done it twice in the last week? The evidence is already mounting that he's not absolutely useless.....

As I said a few pages back, Nerky, "Warner looks something special in the short form, at this very early stage".

Let's hope early signs convert into long term prospects. He is a short@rse like Phughes. Hopefully they turn out like three other notable stumpies like AB, Boonie and Alf.

And the Tassie attack is probably better than NZs.

Is there any doubt?

Now that they've put in Mark Gillespie, no.

Indeed!

I think it passed a record held by DGB but not sure which match.

I thought the DGB record passed was the fastest/youngest to 1000 Shield runs.

Apparently that was the previous record of DGB's he passed. The highest percentage runs in two completed innings in a Shield match is the latest.

So has he been labeled 'The Next Bradman' by SSPFSP yet? Or have they decided not to use that tag any more?

No, just horrie.

So someone still takes notice of what h says? I suppose it takes all sorts.

you clearly do pizza head...have never suggested phew is the next dgb...but have argued he should be fast tracked by the NSP

btw...thanx dello for restoring this thread to rikky status...

suspected spivs had conspired to send it 'below the salt'...a bit of form from the suburban boy, phew and a tie with the 2 heads clearly was enough for the spivs to support dragging the thread up to the oxygen layer

Horrie, you do realise that you talk the most inordinate amount of crap, don't you?

I suggest you read more, and post less, because you're losing track of context and who accuses you of various things.

Or perhaps, drink the kero instead of bathing in it.

I don't know if I'm alone here but I found it easier to remember this thread was around when it was in the main index - anything in the Rikki list which isn't an Oz Test thread I tend to pass over.

Nerky in "playing God for our forum Jewish community" shock . . .

Oh shit Tacky - just about the last thing I need now is Buckethead picking up some rumor that I'm Jewish and working me into one of his black helicopter stories.....

That should help . . .

Ban Nerky...

So with there being no cricket in Aus at the moment, the next domestic fixtures are Vic v WA at the MCG from Dec 15, or SA v Tas on Wednesday in the Franger cup. Is this enough cricket for an Aussie December? I think not.

the next fixtures are SA v WA at Adelaide from Wednesday in the Shield, or Vic v Tas on Friday in the Franger cup.

WA is playing the Yarpies on Thursday at the WACA...

OK, I've mis-read the fixture list...

Phurt, the wozzies could play the barrels in a shield game starting wednesday and still have plenty of time for the Saffer game . . .

presumably the break was because of the Chumps Trophy...still given only the worriers and the vix were to be involved, there is no reason why other matches could not have been scheduled

i note the spivs are now holding up the ladder in the shield and are on the 2nd last rung of the stranger danger...this clearly means we can expect some more dubber selections for the Oz Team on the basis of their form ... aside from phew (who really deserves selection now), expect to see the likes of casson, bolly, hacken, reeks (who has just gone on a $400k pa contract), feathers selected soon

I say again, it sucks that there's no cricket in Aus at this time of December.

The NLWL played for Scarborough on the weekend

How'd he go?
