I agree with Captain Andtenille and qualify that with a Captain Beefheart on the contrary.

Never had the pleasure of Cap'n Crunch, but can hazard a guess that he's pretty gash.

Kim Hughes, Bill Lawry, Tony Grieg, Richie Richardson, Hansie Cronjie, anyone who captained England from '89 onwards (would name them, but a reunion would need to book Wembley instead of the local pub), Ranatunga (just 'coz he's a qunt), Steve Waugh ( for the atrocious last test, last day, last session bowling decisions in India 2001), Punter just coz he looks like Beaker and ain't a Captain's arsehole, and Hitler Woods (only because he sent me in to bat in a social match just as we cracked the third keg).

Aye, out of that lot, I'd reckon Hitler Wood's was a right qunt.Bradman wrote:Kim Hughes, Bill Lawry, Tony Grieg, Richie Richardson, Hansie Cronjie, anyone who captained England from '89 onwards (would name them, but a reunion would need to book Wembley instead of the local pub), Ranatunga (just 'coz he's a qunt), Steve Waugh ( for the atrocious last test, last day, last session bowling decisions in India 2001), Punter just coz he looks like Beaker and ain't a Captain's arsehole, and Hitler Woods (only because he sent me in to bat in a social match just as we cracked the third keg).

See '89 onwards. As much as I have a problem with Poms I wouldn't even put them in the same qunt league as Ranatunga.

Glad you mentioned that - for my part same applies re. Punter - viz., avoiding the Ranatunga league.

Of course, I mean the scientist is played by Ted Dansen.
Not the monster.
I can't remember who played the monster but apparently Sarah Palin auditioned.
