Pat, you know, I like you, and when you stay focussed, you are hard to beat. But when you go into hyperbolic overdrive...........
If you don't accept study after study of his action, if you don't believe 2 separate analyses, if you don't take the word of his greatest rival, and of Waugh, there's not much left to say.

I still remember Tony Greig demonstrating how Murali couldn’t straighten his arm.

Australia batting first at the 'Gabba. We'll see if we've learnt anything from the last few weeks.
Live Long and Prosper!

And the NSW cricket mafia continue to bag players like Finch and Maxwell, while giving the true author of the cheating era a continual run!

If the selectors were motivated by the desire to win this Test, Finch and Maxwell would have been among the first players picked.
I’m not sure what motivates them but worrying about who may or may not be able to play the Dukes ball in England shouldn’t be a factor for a Test at the Gabba.
Of course Maxwell will have a lean innings or two but he will be a match winner more often than not. Finch’s nous wouldn’t go astray either.

Cant believe we are struggling vs the Indian net bowlers, their lead bowler is a kid playing his 3rd test and both openers are gone.
The two swing bowlers they picked have moved the ball but its far from intimidating stuff and its a good thing we are not playing a more seasoned team with more firepower. Hopefully Smith and his mini me Marnus can guide us to a decent total and maybe Green can cash in vs this inexperienced attack.

I think this highlights the problem with the welded into the team approach, not just for cricket but for any sport.

Warner is hopeless. Simply doesn't learn.
His massive f****g ego got him picked. He ain't fit, he has zero form and he's only playing becayse HE wanted to. Time to F him off. As stated above..... The architect of the cheat and we need to leave him behind.
Harris gave us exactly what I expected.....little.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?
