Aus v NZ -Chappell Hadlee series II

[Damo]

I can't remember us ever being so careless and sloppy in the field. Dropped catches, little misfields, wides, no balls and missed run out chances.

Well below our normal standard and very disappointing.

[KiwiMurph]

There's still 3 overs to be bowled by someone(s) other than Boult or Southee.

Usually it's the bowlers getting let down by the batsmen. Why don't we get Wagner in there? Or the paleo guy?

I reckon he probably deserves a chance at some point over the summer. Wagner should be decent in one day cricket as he can bowl to a plan effectively.

[nzzp]

I stopped my boy from watching.

No one should let children see this sort of abuse. It's not OK.

[Donsteppa]

I've only had the game on for the last few overs and I already feel compelled to hide behind the couch...

[Donsteppa]

I blame McMillan

For the whole lot.

[Gunner]

Our bowlers suck.
Except Tim, he's been pretty crafty.

Our fielding sucks.

Where art thou Brendon?

Good point, what happened to big Mitch? Injured? He is a wicket taker.

[Canerbry]

Yep we're pretty back to sucky tonight, slack and crap.

What happened to the fielding? Why the fuck bowl?

KW's captaincy is pretty stupid for a smart guy, and his batting has suffered. Is it time for the Moral Captain to take the reins?

[mariner4life]

No worries bros, I've seen this all before.

It looks lost, but all we need are 2 metre Peter to get some runs; a hundred to Macmillan; a rollicking 80-odd from McCullum; and a surprising 28-off-15 from Mark Gillespie, and we'll piss this is with 3 balls to spare.

[Damo]

@Canerbry Who is the moral captain?

Lee Germon

[Canerbry]

@Damo

Taylor. It's an old joke from the long-forgotten McCullum-Hesson shitfight era.

[Donsteppa]

The Grand Homie with a couple of good slower deliveries.

[Gunner]

Can we just concede this current game, default the third and get these boys home before any more damage is done?

Taylor. It's an old joke from the long-forgotten McCullum-Hesson shitfight era.
Right.

Well then the answer is no. He'd be about 5th in line for the captaincy I'd have thought.

[No Quarter]

This is total carnage.

I blame you for what came after that statement. Dick.

Yeah, injured. We are playing a test bowling attack here and when they don't get wickets up front, we have no chance. You can't expect much from de Grandhomme in these circumstances/

Still sour at setting up 350?
