Australian State Cricket 2010/11 (II)

When he was up here in Queensland he would smash grade attacks all over the park just about every weekend. Then when he was picked in the state team, the runs dried up. His only first class century was in a meaningless match against a touring team (West Indies, I think).

Now he has gone to Tassie & scored a century in his third appearance for them. It's no wonder his nickname is Freddy. He truly is evil.

About eight years ago I heard Nick Kruger was the next Matt Hayden. Perhaps shows the difference between the Tasmanian and Queensland coaching staff and environment?

Well, in this instance, absolutely no argument from me, W. One wonders what happened to the Spivs. Was the wicket juicy? Overcast conditions? No talent?

LOL NSW!

Woof

getting back to the 20/20 plans:
Brisbane will be called the Heat while Sydney's teams are understood to be called the Thunder and Sixers.

whole bunch of suggestions for the Adelaide team:
Adelaide Fire
Adelaide Saints
Adelaide Fever
Adelaide Razors
Adelaide Angels
Adelaide Mavericks
Adelaide Strikers
Adelaide Sparks
Adelaide Slammers
Adelaide Chargers
Adelaide Rush
Adelaide Blitz
Adelaide Pulse

The Adelaide Double Headed Dragons vs the North East Mebourne Ogres

seems just right for the target audience

Adelaide Angry Dragons
Adelaide Barrelly Blumpkins
Adelaide Massive Mungers.

Quiney, 11 (c:Christian b:Lyon,

... and it's not even mid-March yet!

The Forum is a dangerous place for you at this time of the month, horrie. It's probably the wrong time of the month for skully, too.

Adelaide Addlepates?

Adele who?

Can the Spivs avoid an innings loss? Tozzies all out 353, Blues currently 0-27.

Farking QLD. Shades of the bad old days.

Dubbers have avoided the innings defeat to Kruger ...

No they hav'nt. Six down & still needing 149 to make Tassie bat again. Home final, here we come.

But Kruger hasn't beaten us on his own so stick that up ya you Tozzie bastard.
