A terrible tragedy and to be taken so young is difficult to understand.

I feel deep sympathy for his family and teammates.

RIP Phillip

    In my 71 years I cannot remember a passing of a sportsman that has brought a similar response from all over the globe.

    Astonishing.

    Sadly watched enzed completely dominate the pakis last night.

    they are building a team very well,although hard to judge when other countries are so weak.

    They certainly showed how to bat on flat AI type wickets.

    Brendon McCullum made this statement, earlier today:

    "On behalf of the BLACKCAPS I want to make the following statement. Our focus at the moment is not on our performances, it is all about Phil. We are heartbroken for Phil's family, Greg, Virginia, Megan and Jason. No one should go through what you guys are going through right now. We are reaching out to Phil's family, Michael Clarke and the Australian boys, medical staff, fans, all who have been affected by Phil's passing. We are also reaching out to Sean Abbott. You are all in our thoughts, our hearts and in Phil's case, our memories. Cricket is a sport, but the cricket community is a family. We are here for you, we are thinking ofyou."

    I have nothing to add.

    Last night,the kiwis refused to place a fielder in short even wearing a helmut.The commentator said BMc was quoted as saying they would rather lose the test than put a fielder under that pressure.

    Fox played highlights of Phil's magnificent ton against South Africa tonight, jeez I found it hard to watch.

    It will be very interesting to see how the Adelaide Test plays out when it begins on Tuesday, and the manner in which it's played. Will be working so won't get to catch a big deal of it apart from the final day.

    Cricket Australia, the BCCI and all the venues and partners deserve a lot of credit for the way they've handled everything during a difficult time.

    Some low life listed the order of service booklet from Phillip Hughes' funeral on eBay before the proceedings had even finished.

    Fortunately eBay had the decency to remove the listing.

    Disgusting.

    The team for the first test in Adelaide - 1 Chris Rogers, 2 David Warner, 3 Shane Watson, 4 Michael Clarke (capt), 5 Steven Smith, 6 Mitchell Marsh, 7 Brad Haddin (wk), 8 Mitchell Johnson, 9 Ryan Harris, 10 Peter Siddle, 11 Nathan Lyon.

    Hazlewood unlucky whilst Lyon needs to show something on a track that should suit, his form has been horrible.

    How's that b grade park cricketer of a captain of ours going?

    3 centuries, a wonderful tribute to the memory of PH.

    A number of critics of MC are no doubt reconsidering given the way the Captain has performed in the past couple of weeks.

    not reconsidering, but respecting a fine effort. and leadership from the front. he has to show this 'L' every test.

    Gee, lyon desperately needs a short leg and a captain that can set him one.Might get another 100 wickets.

    I do miss the easy catches that doolan dropped when there.

    Might help if he could bowl a consistent smart line. But I guess that's the captains fault.....

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
