Gemmill 35640 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Apparently Marto might be on report now for comments but they would be seriously justified. Sorry but that is complete bollocks. No matter how bad the decision is, you have to respect the umpire's opinion. I don't want to go down the Wayne Rooney route in cricket, thank you very much. And excessive appealing? What are you on? Nearly all of the lbw shouts have looked really close, you can't blame the England team for appealing. Just be lucky that Bowden is getting them all right. And Gemmill, weren't you formerly one of the 'cricket is shite' brigade? Nice to see you've turned the corner. 12437[/snapback] I'm just providing latest scores for Sammy. He's very keen on them. Plus I'm off work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 1 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Whatever.... How the fuck can they have a public vote on man of the match when the result is still in the balence? If Fred gets the next five wickets, he could get it. If the wickets are shared, but we still win, it could go to Jones, Strauss or Vaughan. If Australia grind out a draw, it could be Ponting or Gilchrist. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 35640 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Clarke bowled by Jones. Gillespie moved up the order and coming in ahead of Warne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsy 0 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Wow! What a ball by Simon Jones to get Clarke out for 39. Swung a country mile as Clarke was leaving it outside off. In the end it took off stump clean out of the ground as a perplexed Clarke was left there looking at the pitch. Amazing ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc-mag 1 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I'm even more desperate that we do this cos town has been crawling with pissed up Aussies in convict uniform fancy dress for the last week now and their unique sense of humour is just beginning to wear thin.

Ive seen some weird uniforms people wear at the WACA here aswell. Somethings you just have to question why! But it is the cricket and it is ok to wear absolutely bizzare things. I hope Warne and Ponting hold on. Ponting has done so well thus far a real captains knock that we needed. Cant wait till the next test! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I can see the Crims grinding this out for a draw. I guess that will feel almost like a win to them in terms of momentum going into the next test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 That could prove very costly drawing from that position in terms of their and our confidence, i can't take watching any more of these tests the way they're finishing!!! Hopefully we can forget the ending and remember how we outplayed them for so long. Yet another amazing effort from both team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet another amazing effort from both team 12574[/snapback] What could prove more costly is that if the series is drawn the Aussies retain the Ashes as holders.
