We Don't Like Cricket... We Love It!

Yeah I love soccer but a league is tough to get into.

Well the games not going to grow down here if people don’t give the top domestic league a proper chance.

It's a great game, but shouldn't it be reserved for people without arms?

The drummer from Def Leppard is halfway there.

You got a problem with goalkeepers?

I was going to the games for a long time, when I was younger and had more time. It has gone backwards. It has effectively no advertisement and the games being removed from fox and put on paramount + hasn’t helped

Your both mental. The A-League is bonkers and great.

a league is awful to watch on telly, the standard of football is dogshit really

Thats the perception because people try to compare it to European leagues like the Premier League, which isn’t fair. It’ll never be that standard, that kind money just isnt there and probably never will be. But the standard isnt dogshit.

Getting away from Fox was the right thing to do, they didn’t give a **** about the league in the end, they slashed all the production budgets and the coverage was rife with bugs and issues. It hasn’t been a great start with Paramount plus due to a lack of features and other teething issues, but there is potential for that to get better. If only SBS had the money for it, they’re production on the world cup was absolutely perfect.

Very good point! They're far from 'armless.

That Gabba pitch is so green its hard to tell where the pitch starts and the outfield ends. We have two of the best bowling attacks in the world to unleash on that monster, good luck to whoever’s facing the first ball.

Reckon the winner of the toss might bowl?

I definitely wouldn’t rule it out. Might depend on the weather. If its really hot that pitch will be a prick to bat on day 4 or 5.

 

[Gumby]

This bloke bowling looks like an octopus

Sydney Thunder oh boy wowee

Sydney Thunder oh boy wowee

Wow. Just wow.

 

[Thresher]

I've been in a side bowled out for 22.

I got the 2nd highest score by edging through the slips for 2 runs.

 

[Thresher]

South Africa sent in to bat on a green top.

Can they outscore Sydney Thunder?

 

[CrazyMatt]

One wicket each for the quicks already. Great start.

Im seriously at the point now where that spot is Boland’s. When Hazelwood’s fit, he’s 12th man for mine, he needs to try to force his way back in. Scotty’s more then earned it.

I'd be selecting Hazelwood for the Ashes in England. Starc could be the one at 12th man there.
