Sir Why You Little

We may have to Agree to Diaagree Rhino as i think taking 3-3 just before tea gives a team a good "Sniff" & a serious one. The Actions of our Captain to come out & Bowl Mike HUssey and Cam White at the resumption made me feel Cheated. A Feeling i resent considering this young and somewhat inexperienced side was having a "crack" It's not a Hissyfit at all. What Punter did goes against the grain of Australian Cricket since AB led the '87 World Cup. A Great Fighting Quality,and that was not shown last weekend. Disrespect to the Baggy Green

Correct, in so much as it was the Captain's call to fly the white flag of surrender. Thus i will not go to another Test Match while Ponting is Captain. He cannot be trusted.

Another wicket after tea and the Indians would have been in serious trouble. Of course we will never know as the spineless little Punter was to busy looking after himself.But we should have had a Real Crack at that tail end. I will never respect him as a captain again. Stick to Batting Ricky

Last Horse in the Cup!!! Fair Go Rhino-Ye of little faith. The Indians lost 6-50 (including 3-3) during that period before tea. We were mounting a good challenge. Ponting refused to see it through. I Hope He enjoys his First Test Payment when he plays New Zealand because he doesn't really deserve it

You bet we were in a winning Position to win at tea Rhino. Sure there was work to be done but it was possible, But our wonderful captain turned his back on it to appease an over rate that both teams had flaunted with. Steve Waugh Moulded his team from Mark Taylor-Yes he was part of a lucky era but he made it stick. Australia would not have batted the same way on Day 5 if that advantage had been pressed on day 4. That is why i shall continue to blame Ponting. Pathetic Capt he is

Yes i do think he deserves to lose the captaincy. The team had got itself back into a winning position. If the 4 wickets were taken after Tea then it was Game on, and the over rates would not be an issue. But little Ricky decided to wave the white Flag, that is unnacceptable. Ponting is only the 2nd most successful captain because of the team he inherited From S.R.Waugh. Very Similiar to Alan Joyce at Hawthorn in '88. Australia was not hard to captain with all the arsenal available, but it is now and Ponting aint the man. Good Batsmen but not a captain. First over after tea Hussey then Cam White!!!! Why bother Touring and Toiling in Hard conditioons if you are going to bend over to appease Chris Broad?? I am Furious at this outcome. 15 years of Tough Cricket, Ponting thumbed his nose at it. And it was his Decision he is the Captain. Shame on you.

Ponting should be ashamed of himself for not going for the win yesterday. I Blame Him Totally.Saving his own ass so he could play in a pedestrian test against NZ rather than going Flat out to draw a series against india to keep a trophy. Shame on you Ponting. Just like you won the toss & Bowled against England after Glenn McGrath had done his ankle. What a tool. So you may have been suspended yesterday for slow over rates. Oh i think The Aussie public would have got your spot back, But now you will be reminded of DAY 4 TEST 4 for a long time..Hang your head little Ricky. Oh BTW Ricky you owe me a new Radio I broke my old one yesterday in disgust. Steve Waugh or AB would never have done what you did. Put yourself before the Team and the Australian supporters. Walk the Plank....

Ha Ha that's a Beauty "Sorry Dear I couldn't get you that i had to Donate more Money to The MFC-Priorities my Dear" Love ya work!!!!

I don't want other peoples money to get us into shape. Melbourne supporters need to be woken up. We gotta stand on our own 2 Feet. I want Melbourne to be in the "Big 4" within 10 years. Filling the "G with a minimum of 55,000 for Home Games. IT CAN BE DONE....

This is great.... I'm Going to say it......THE DEMONS ARE BACK Wow thanks to everyone...

I would be happy with sheeds with Ratten as Midfield assistant. Sheeds has definately not lost the plot-do not be so foolish to think that way. Sheeds would love to bring a Premiership to Melbourne I Bet. Imagine the Kudos he would recieve. This is a big chance for Melbourne to Earn some respect-we must get it right
