Wadda We Sing

love the club song in the traditional language

Suck it up Pies

Yeah, now let me think?.....Oh oh i know.....lots of dru........probably need to go talk to the opposition about that

Oh well, look on the bright side... at least it would be one new rule that we wouldn't have to adjust our game plan to...

Yep spot on. Often a series like this is one where they discover a hidden talent. I always think Warne bowling to Gatting. Never forget that one. If he hadnt arrived before that delivery it certainly announced it. Warner is the one who can make the big tons i think. He gets out playing rash shots a lot and if he can curb that he might. The poms and the crowd will go all out to get Smith and Warner after the ball tampering fiasco, so its good the world Cup was played there as they would have copped it already and can settle down to business. The Poms will also be thinking get Smith out and we win the Ashes. I must say with the state the footy is in at the moment, i am quite looking forward to the series. Many late nights await.

I so want to beat them in the Ashes this year now after that. Im not sure we have the team but beating India in India recently gives me some sort of confidence that the talent is there somehow. If im lucky and things go right, i may even get over for a match. Blasting off in Briton Macca! Isnt there a Basketball World Cup coming up somewhere? There should be if there isnt!

You see....i completely forgot about the tour! And then there is the aftermath of the footy to deal with as well. I need to start clocking on and clocking off Macca! I kinda thought there would be a bit of a lul over winter, but its been bigger than Jesus !

One thing is for sure, i need 2 TVs !! That was impossible trying to watch the F1, Cricket and Tennis all at the same time. Who shedules these things! They are the ones who need the rocket!

Well its more when the batsman cross before the fielder has released the ball is the correct interpretation of the rule. They didnt know the rule to begin with or didnt fully understand it, which for a World Cup umpire who is paid to get it right is quite unbelievable. That rule has not changed since last century. Mind you none of the commentators Taylor and Healy included pointed it out. I have no problem with umpires decisions as it always evens out over a game. This was different. If they dont know all the laws of the game then they cannot be called umpires. The only correct decision is the match should be replayed. I agree with your stance on LBW. There is a difference between a bad umpiring decision and an umpire who doesnt fully understand the rules i think. Just my 2c worth anyway.

Heres my problem: "The law states: "If the boundary results from an overthrow or from the wilful act of a fielder, the runs scored shall be any runs for penalties awarded to either side, and the allowance for the boundary, and the runs completed by the batsmen, together with the run in progress if they had already crossed at the instant of the throw or act." The batsman Stokes and (the other one) had not crossed when Guptill picked up the ball and threw it from the boundary. It should have been 5 runs awarded to the batting side and not 6. The umpires (after much deliberation) clearly got it wrong.

I cant believe this cricket match.

Kiwis looking the goods here @Macca bowling and fielding superbly well 4-120

Here is a link to the F1 if you need it. http://unitedsgloryday.blogspot.com/p/formula-1.html

I find it pretty amazing it was more or less the same 10 years ago with Federer and Djokovic playing in finals and Serena playing in the women's. Certainly an age to remember.

It was a really bad one, had his arms out wide signalling a wide. They were also so far in front it was never going to make any difference, he just wanted to get 100 in a WC final. It was actually uncomfortable to watch. Even Mark Taylor and Ian Healy were gobsmaked and both remarked that in their day they would not have gotten away with that. How times have changed. Im flicking between the Cricket, the F1 and the Tennis ! Lifes sporting multi task!

I totally agree Macca, it was bought in to eliminate howlers. And there we have an incorrect decision for everyone to see and theres nothing anyone can do about it because of another rule. Laughable. Still Roy cant stand there and argue with an umpires decision, its not all about him and its just not cricket. The broadcasters had to apologize for his foul language. He was fined 30% of his match fee.

Still going ok although that last LBW was a howler. Cant believe Roy is allowed to play after his dissent he showed by flat out refusing to walk after being given out and had to be shown the direction of the changerooms by the umpire in the game against us. Was the worst one ive ever seen. He also should have known there were no reviews left. Pissant.
