Sir Why You Little

Yes Cowan played the old style opener today. Thank god he did. Brilliant job, he was a rock. Must also say Haddin played well right when it was needed, albeit lucky DRS was not there! Bowlers will be ripping to get stuck in hopefully after lunch.

Take another look at the shot he played...First ball day one....it was a total shocker...he may have got a rough decision but he almost deserved it. Time to hit the Commentary Box M. Cricket.

With 70,000 people making noise the Ump made a hard call. He doesn't get 9 replays in slo mo. harsh call but that is cricket. Haddin is still there.

Agree. Haddin would have been out if the DRS was in place. Hussey 3 Golden Quacks in his last 8 innings.

Hussey out first ball. Suprised? Nope.

That 's the one!!

Sounds like a plan Mr. Leg

Both venues were well frequented by different departments. The film department was 2 ninutes walk fro wong's in carre st.

Bahahahaha!! "Wong's After Hours....." what a TV Show...The Kam Yin Chinese in Elwood closed last year, that was dodgy...Never a customer, but always open....

Steven (Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou) Top Guy...We would test Mrs. Wong on her Menu Memory when a group of us ABC persons would take over the Lazy Susan table quite often on a friday afternoon in the 80's...great days.

HaHaHa...The Menu is still the same, don't worry..and i am sure the Fritters are prepared in exactly the same way!!

Could well be on holidays in Asia next June. Melbourne winter is just too cold!! I was thinking more over summer before the season starts...But i am sure we could work out some annual events at Wong's!

Excellent idea...Would love to meet Demonlanders at Wong's '59 being a Premiership year!!!

Wong's Chinese Cafe in Glenhuntly Road Elsternwick has been renovated! Opened in 1959 it was the same until october...I had lunch in there today. The Food is still the same....but it did feel a little weird sitting in the "New Room"!

Blacktown Rooted Hill 2012.

Yes, But only after Decca didn't sign them...They had first crack

Oh yeah,Decca had first crack at the Beatles!! I often wonder what happened to the old stuffy suit who did it!! You can just see the MD a few weeks later...."you did what?? You turned them down....YOU STUPID BASTARD!!!!!" sacked for life!!!

The van broke down....did it.

Haha!! Up there with Decca records turning down the Beatles..."this music style will not last"The quickly signed The Rolling Stones once the word was out!!

Japanese sage derby? Venezulian Beaver Cheese? What about Cheddar?Not much call for it round here sir....

It was a Monty Python reference! Thought i would keep the humor rolling.

"we've done bananas sir"

Interesting stat...Where is it sourced. Doesn't change my opinion though...if i am a Captain and win the Toss i will bat, with one exception. If a pitch is wet, not damp but wet and the weather forecast is for dry days ahead. Then i would bowl. But in all other scenario's i would Bat first and Back the team to make a score. Now i know i will come under fire here...no problem. How often is a pitch wet? Not often at all. I can see the merit in what you guys are saying...but i hate the fourth innings chase more than the first innings fight. That is what it comes down to.

It is too much like Baseball to me, without being Baseball....i like both Baseball and Cricket. But 20/20 is like a Hybrid. In the same way i find the International Rules games a yawn. 20/20 there is no subtlety which i consider a huge part of cricket. Lets play a game of chess in 5 minutes.....But why??

Absolutely..i have no interest in watching or following. Boardwalk Empire is a much better option!!
