outstanding stuff, mcqueen

another point is the lack of players playing 1st class cricket overseas when not on australian duty and getting experience on different conditions this is brought about by the increase in australian fixtures with test, od and t20 filling up more of the calendar. playing t20 overseas (e.g. india) doesn't really count as it is not 1st class cricket

would also help if we stopped building batsman-friendly, homogenous drop-in pitches for australian grounds with little variety in pitches it was always predictable we would struggle on "different" pitches whether in the sub-continent or elsewhere

bunking? good 'ole predictive text saved you again, bitters

whatever happened to ray of sunshine? does he still ring the radio?

must be a long time since our season was still live with 2 games to go and every chance it will still be live coming into the last game it's a feeling i'd forgotten about (nearly - lol)

Sheesh, redleg. A citizen is seen on the roof of the gatwick private hotel wearing an everyday balaclava and brandishing something vaguely resembling a submachine gun and you have the prejudice to label him a criminal. a potential client no less.

but the richmond doctor is not a qualified psychtatrist, md

i'd need to see the richmond doctor's report on fyfe before i'd consider it

most suburban grounds were sh*tholes i those days

yes, but remember he is still just 19. he has plenty of time to perfect his tackling skills. he already doesn't lack in aggression when he needs to, so i wouldn't at all be worried about his current level of tackling ability. his development to date has been impressive and shows no signs of tailing off. he's a gem.

just another boring weekend, red

did someone call for a doctor?

the earl has gone very quiet

I don't know who was on the roof of the gat, but the hun has reported that the dangerous man the coppers were hunting was called "earl"......hmmmmm... could biffo have been indulging in a little identity theft or did the triad manage to find and turn the notorious fitzroy hipster? .....stay tuned

quite true biffo. in fact its beem known to make men out of boys......... (and eunuchs out of men)

told you red.....nah na nah!

they're goooorn, time to be bitter not optcally mystic

except it's not.......jolimont is part of east melbourne (ending on brunton avenue) whilst not jolimont it is within the city of melbourne boundary (yuk)

or the hawthorn football club in mulgrave.......

had a friend (acquaintance really) who lived in north box hill in line and close to mont albert, who always gave his address as north mont albert - lol

might be pushing it a little, earl as they have a no hipster policy. besides, there are issues of territoriality to consider. you could try the coburg ladies martial arts club though.

with his vast experience he would be the dom

come to think of it, i did notice a shady character hanging around the fringes with a fake cuban accent chatting up some society nob trying to sell him a guava paste franchise. The poorly fitted rug had me fooled at the time. and i must say i far preferred the canapes at the mont albert ladies tennis club.
