    I'm not upset - just explaining myself better 🙂

    The Michael Clarke puff piece masquerading as an interview on 60 Mins is sickening

    http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/cricket/85399483/Shane-Watson-was-part-of-tumour-on-Australian-team-says-Michael-Clarke

    I see Clarke is becoming part of the Channel Nine commentary team. Most Aussie players that I've disliked over the years I've eventually warmed to as they've started to wind down their careers, but I'm afraid Clarke is an odd man out - he just comes across as a Willis.

    So Watson isn't a cancer but he's a tumour that could grow into a cancer?
    I think he meant to say he's a Malignant tumour, not benign.
    Pup could at least get his medical jargon correct if he's going to slam a fellow ex player.

    watson always struck me as a relatively innocuous lump.

    Channel Nein is under some serious fire for appointing "blokey" old boys Test players into the box, who spend most of their time wanking on about the good old days.

    Clarke did a couple of guest spots last summer, and he was one of the few in there trying to steer talk onto the game at hand, rather than what happened in the distant past.

    @MN5 probably the only all-rounder in history to spend more time appealing when he was batting than when he was bowling.

    Don't like Clarke, but reckon he'll be a really good commentator.

    Seems 9 have listened to the backlash from last Summer. Clarke and KP are smart hires, and ditching Brett Lee is great too.

    Have they got rid of Mark Nicholls too ? ( he asked excitedly )

    At least you're not horrifically overrated like he was.

    All of that was excellent. "Jaws of life".

    Reminds me of the Alternative Rugby Commentary - whatever happened to that guy?
