For all that we occasionally bemoan Warnie, the worst for me is Allan Border. Drier than the Sahara, the bloke is a dead-set energy tampon.
LAUGH!!!!!

The Fox team shut up for a couple of overs before tea yesterday and turned the stump mic up, and the Aussies round the batsman had some great banter going... convinced Paine to give Marnus a crack cos 'he's gonna crack 200 test wickets'. That was some of the better commentary I saw all day.

I was listening to Jim Maxwell and the ABC yesterday, synced up to the pictures. Sensational; really good comms. Fair and balanced (tongue in cheek), and good to listen to

Speaking of commentary - The 12th man could have field day with some of the those names in that post alone. I don't like the sound of "Head giving Paine to Myanus" for example.
It could all get quite interesting depending on where the innings fall into the night sessions.

@barbarian I agree but that's between overs or an ongoing conversation as a bowler walks back not during the action. Plus it has to be passably interesting not a self indulgent wank fest or auditory fast food - quick, cheap and of no inherent value.

Off to the GOM thread with you!

"Yeah, look, we've got three guys going out around at 140+ but then you get a break from that with the best off sooner in history. Oh and the new kid as a change bowler... Who also rips in at 140. Good luck".
