The Official Ashes 09 Thread

Think the match referee should look at Ponting's behaviour with three overs left when the physio came off.

What a cock munch.

I think your negative, slow-go tactics throughout the game were shambolic. How about the match referee intervene when the physio came on, patted Anderson on the arm and then walked off?

ponting is the biggest cheat , and twister of the rules in the game.

and a great player,

and a poor captain.

get over it !

I didn't watch every ball of all 5 days, but where else did we use "slow-go tactics" that were so "shambolic".

The differnance being; the physio is allowed on the pitch, as is the third man to change gloves (not that it changed the amount of overs bowled anyway) So it's an irrelevant point.

Your captians behaviour was embarrassing.

Yesterday morning you deliberately slowed the over-rate down when Haddin and North were in control. Even your OWN fans were booing. But I'm not going to get into it anymore. I only raised the point because you took an unnecessary swipe at our captain. I thought Collingwood showed great grit and determination to save the game for you. I take my hat off to him. Nothing sour about that is there?

Anyway, since when does third man change gloves?

Sorry mate, but I disagree. Any fair and balanced cricket fan will acknowledge that Ponting totally outwitted your public school boy these past five days.

if he did outwit us,

why at 70 for 5 this morning

could he not get rid of our tail ( 1 wicket in the last hour ).

he's not good,

i'm with geoff thompson on this.

Did we? Not sure... I'd say your team has done the same thing at times.

I don't think it was an unneccesarry swipe:

"Fuck Off..."

"Fuck off you *more "fucking" insults*"

Thats why i called him a cock munch... the 12th man has always brought water/gloves/helmets. I'm sure it was to ensure only that there were two more overs but there would have been anyway.

Put in the same position i have no doubt you would ahve done whatever it took to get a result. Oh and as for out classing our captain. Tell me how Ponting's ouclasses our batsmen to give thier wickets away, because in my opinion thats what it was.

 

[John Wayne]

if he did outwit us,

surely he could have got rid of our tail ( 1 wicket ) end in the last hour.

Happened twice to you in the Caribbean. Kettle, pot, etc.

 

[John Wayne]

Don't hear any Aussies having a whinge here. You magnificently save a test match and the first thing you do is whinge about the opposition captain.

 

[jimharri]

Yeah, and we got on with it. I suggest you do the same and stop whinging.
