South Africa v Australia, 2nd ODI, Centurion, Apr 5

PMSL @ the Drunk. Apparently in his thesaurus "fierce attitude" means "become soft c0cks". 5 for nuffin FFS.

Drunk demands "fierceness"

"Captain Ricky Ponting has demanded his men raise their game for Sunday's match, but he also paid tribute to Hauritz's work ethic after the NSW off-spinner emerged from the shadows to lead Australia to victory on Friday night."

So did you predict this, Red?

I guess not.

Nice delivery there from Kallis.

40/6

Jebus, we might give our record low of 70 a shake here.

Your clocks.

The lowest Aus have scored in SA was 93, wasn't it?

Looks like the Aussies have been taking a leaf out of our book, "if you're going to bomb out, bomb out in 'style'".

Still I get to look at Mitch's bum rather sooner than I thought I would.

Well yes Ange, but this being FB and all, I assumed you were being a little more obtuse than that.

Yes. Capetown 2006.

70 v Eng at Edgbaston in 1977 and
70 v NZ at Adelaide in 1986.

In SA

Crossed over.

Yes, I realised my error and edited, Dem

I'm never obtuse.....

I've just looked up lowest scores on cricinfo. Aus lowest score of 70 was twice once against us and once against NZ!! Didn't expect that.

Oh, you already said that....

Yes. Capetown 2006.

That was under lights when the ball was moving about everywhere.

As you predicted, no doubt.

Any reason why Capt Idiot batted first given the 10am start.

Any reason why he hasn't taken the Power Play even though we are 8 down?

Sara Del Rey captures my feelings on todays Australian performance.

What captures your feelings on the Hawkes last night?

the pic captures that too. It's been a rather shitty weekend in that respect. (Hawks, Storm, Aust cricket team) Trifecta of craptitude is in effect.

He always bats first. Anyway Sooky didn't take their PP at all during the last match.

Just because his opponent is an idiot doesn't mean he has to be. I suppose if Saf only had one player outside the circle anyway...

Is 131 enough then?

Wonder why they don't just have an earlier lunch.
