Still it's a pretty sad record. Says more about county cricket than anything.

Couldn't find anything on Langer in the Australian press but at least the BBC are on the ball.

The Australian press are still doing their nut over the first two tests. NLWL don't rate.

by horace Thu 23 Jul 2009, 05:34

the BNLG never rated here except in the boondocks of Worst Australia

BTW - if Langer gets a ton today he will have exactly 100 first class plus List A tons.

Congrats to the Nuggety One. Finished with 107 to pass DGB's Aus most FC runs record.

Farking little LEGEND...

He's still a chance of passing both Sobers and Pollock as well this season.

GP?

Didn't realise he had that many

by JGK Thu 23 Jul 2009, 14:34

Sorry, my mistake. I meant Barry Richards.

by taipan Thu 23 Jul 2009, 14:39

Thanks, couldn't understand where GP came from as he never played CC

Couldn't he replace Con instead of the mincing blonde billy bile bucket

by Zat Fri 24 Jul 2009, 01:33

He could, but he did the TGM/tgm thing. Get out leaving the fans wanting more.

Unlike a certain dopey Billy.

by horace Fri 24 Jul 2009, 01:34

there is a nice alignment between the BNLG and the crooked little (albeit talented batsmen) stockbroker

by JGK Thu 03 Sep 2009, 11:50

Langer in danger of his career average slipping below 50.

He is 122 runs ahead of it at the moment with up to 5 innings left this season.

by spangler Thu 03 Sep 2009, 12:06

He's been reprimanded for throwing a hissy fit against Hampshire last week.

Haha

by LeFromage Thu 03 Sep 2009, 16:50

Got decked twice by Onions in his short innings the other day, apparently.

Still would have preferred him in the Test team instead of Watson when they dropped Hughes. His bowling probably would have been more effective as well...

by JGK Fri 18 Sep 2009, 23:35

The NLWL has gone past Sobers and G Pollock on the FC runs list as well.

Rule No.1: selectors never admit their mistakes.

Yeah. Not sure what's worse in that regard, the Aussie selectors not admitting to cock-ups, or the English.
