Re: ASHES 21/22

Great ball from Starc but Bairstow was panting like he'd just run a marathon from the ball before. Definitely played a role in the wicket on the next ball.

Shambles of a team. Unfit, uninterested and lacking talent.

Re: ASHES 21/22

Another drubbing this time without our two most important bowlers. Great depth there. Come on England make a bloody contest of it.

Root coming on for a bowl in the 14th over……Wouldn’t be happening if the seamers were threatening…….and Warner runs himself out
He genuinely looked like their most threatening bowler tonight as well.

Shambles.

Re: ASHES 21/22

You know I think we've been a bit lucky.

But for some better catching in the last two matches by the English the games could have been much tighter -- how about that howler from their WK?

Which is a bit worrying given how mediocre this English team is.

10 wicket victory is an absolute drubbing. Well done Australia. Edit: Totally jinxed them and spoke too soon. 9 wicket victory. My bad. :o Total white wash, wasn’t it.

Re: ASHES 21/22

Cam Green you star. Don't find an all rounder who can get runs and bowl 140 kph overs easily.

Can't wait to see him more at test level.

Pale rider was also very good. Directed it was well as it's star was our Clint. Indeed. Have you seen Gran Torino? It's pretty much the same character in a different movie 40 years later. Grouchy, irascible, scowling, threatening and saving the day. The Mule (2018) is also good. Different vibe from...

St. Kilda team coached by a man whose name means 'Of the Saints' and a new captain named 'Priest'.

Re: Jason Blake to return!

Good news. He was a dedicated servant to the club and though at times he could be a frustrating player -- still wince thinking about him giving away the ball to Geelong in that first game in 2011 and costing us the game -- he always struck me as an incredibly intelligent and level headed individual....

Well this has descended into a really embarrassing and ugly topic.

Re: Wealthy St Kilda figure Gerry Ryan and former coach Grant Thomas endorse Larry Benge to join Saints board

Does he have any qualifications in sports administration or history in anything related to the game other than dentistry?

I'm struggling to figure out why he would be a smart addition.

Is wily old GT trying to install a puppet board member who speaks with his voice? :lol:

I wonder if all that travelling the Dogs did over the last 4-5 weeks finally caught up with them, because they just stopped and Melbourne did what any good team does, take full advantage of it.

Fantastic game. Passion and skill displayed by both teams. Love the reaction from the Bont after that great snap just now in the 3rd.

Guess they didn't get the message that this is a compromised asterisk cup that doesn't mean as much.
