Not really. That's why dudes like qmy end up on Thursday Island or PNG.

Must admit, I don't quite get the full extent of the Aussie parochialism - I'll get it eventually.

I thought his bowling looked wobbly and inconsistent, and he didn't look like he had the temperament to succeed.

I like it. Early on, it stopped them even competing as a whole of Australia team. It's not much better now. Very Happy

It's great!
