  1. Bloody hell Uncle Alex, never seen a round like it. All of the lower sides won. Hope it continues with WC
  2. Season 2 of C'est comme ça que je t'aime out now. TPB This is a really good show. Sorry, couldn't find a trailer with English subs. In a quiet suburb of Quebec City in 1974, two couples in crisis realize that their relationships are falling apart. Infidelity and betrayal are exposed and a sequence of unexpected events will transform both couples into murderers.
  3. Series 2 of Dark Winds has started to drop.
  4. These are just off the top of my head. Couldn't be arsed looking for more but they're out there. https://wwos.nine.com.au/afl/caroline-wilson-reveals-james-hird-essendon-sacking-story-biggest-career-regret/ec828d0e-4e38-4962-a420-9bc9e202398f https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/cripps-wins-apology-over-hotel-claim-20230530-p5dcly.html https://www.nmfc.com.au/news/51047/caroline-wilson-says-sorry-to-north-melbourne
  5. I enjoyed episode 1, but not having Walton Goggins means it will never be as good as the original IMO.
  6. I enjoyed this one. Sam is a true Kansan on the surface, but, beneath it all, struggles to fit the hometown mold. Grappling with loss and acceptance, she discovers herself and a community of outsiders who don't fit in but don't give up.
  7. I hope the club ignores those pricks in the media who want blood and stick fat with Simmo. No one will do better with our injury list. Hurn, Shuey and Nic Nat will all retire. Another 7 or 8 will be cut and we will hit the draft again. St Kilda and Norf game only got 18 000 last weekend and the Saints are in the 8. Pretty sure you lose money at Marvel with that crowd size. Nothing said in the media though. Just keep kicking a dog when it's down you cnuts.
  8. A lot of cards have a limit of 20 000 to 30 000 Baht from ATM machines.
  9. It's getting a bit hot in here gents. Hopefully this will lighten the mood. A favourite Pom and Aussie, Michael Parkinson and Barry Humphries. An Ode to Parky.
  10. Warne, Symonds and Border were all handy but not recognized as all rounders. Not even close. Some people regards Adam Gilchrist as an all rounder.
  11. He was probably the last but well before my time.
  12. Dougie only took 49 wickets. Was never seen as all rounder. Just a handy part timer.
  13. Smith and Warner were more complicit than Bancroft.
  14. I'm not comparing them. Just saying I think you're being harsh on a 24 year old who has just played 20 odd tests,
  15. I don't give a toss about weightlifters champ. Just showing the facts about Atherton.
  16. Bancroft got 9 months which many thought was harsh.
  17. Comparing a 24 year old to one of the all time greats isn't really fair. A batting allrounder averaging 35 isn't low at all. Botham average 33 with the bat and 28 with the ball. Flintoff averaged 31 and 32. Stokes 36 and 32. Compared to Green who is averaging 35 with the bat and 34 with the ball shows he is doing very good.
  18. Again Everyone does it, just not as obvious as Bancroft. https://cricket.one/cricket-news/trescothick-reveals-how-england-masterminded-a-ball-tampering-ploy/62e146bf3094a4d5d6db12a9
  19. Let's not get to precious. Your captain Michael Atherton is no cleanskin. Michael Atherton, 1994 In the "dirt in pocket" affair, then England captain Michael Atherton was accused of ball tampering during a Test match with South Africa at Lord's in 1994, after television cameras caught Atherton reaching into his pocket and then rubbing a substance on the ball. Atherton denied ball tampering, claiming that he had dirt in his pocket which he used to dry his hands. He was also accused of lying to the match referee. Atherton was summoned to the match referee and was fined £2,000 (equivalent to £4,200 in 2021[6]) for failing to disclose the dirt to the match referee.[7]
  20. Being harsh on Green I think. You're talking about a 24 year old all rounder on his first tour to England. Already has a test 100 and a five for. His batting average of 35 compares favourably with other all rounders.
  21. I wish it was a bit of banter. It's turned quite vitriolic though.
  22. TBF, Stokes did ask for flat pitches to help Bazball. I don't think Captains should be commenting on what pitches they would like. Especially in the media. Just leave it up to the curators.
  23. Was also 45 years ago. Both countries have done stuff they're probably not too proud off TBH.
