Back when I started playing at the Gabba, tin was what you used for making things.

Thought it was more like bark in your day, Kerry.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Big laughs all round in the Fox commentary box today.

Pitiful.

53 wickets at 38.07, Glenn Turner never stood a chance!

They obviously couldn't find any tomatoes in this game, but should've look harder. KOK didn't even get a bowl and Turner made two hundreds.

Skull might be a bit too old school to realise there are ways for people to check how accurate his yarns are bless him.

And, once again, anything about cricket on here becomes about chippy Kiwi outrage 🙄

lol, he may not have even dismissed him at all in test cricket

Meanwhile at the ASHES the two young blokes have dug in. Pope and Hameed starting to get into the groove.

Lyon with a couple of overs. Green on now.

Someone should remind O'Keefe, just in case he doesn't read the Fern...

My quick review says he got Turner 3 times. This was Kerry's test.

They played against each other quite a bit though (for those days - 6 tests I think) and Turner probably had the edge.

@NTA KOK started it!

when he's bowling at that pace, from that height, right on that length? yeah, i rub myself a little, what about it?

[mariner4life]

it's incredible that the free-to-air Australian coverage was just a huge wank-a-thon of old boys rubbing themselves off. While Fox had the quiet guys who talked about the cricket

And then it all changed over with the move to Seven

Ponting is brilliant.

[NTA]

How the fuck did that miss everything?

[mariner4life]

5 now. This attack is sexy

Was a good vibe with Botham at the start of play, too.

Fox are desperate. They've painted themselves into a blokey, bogan corner. Falling subscribership and under threat from a streaming service next time around i reckon

[Crucial]

Quite nice to see slip catches again after our recent diet of LBWs and bowleds.

[Yeahtheboys]

It’s hard to hate aussie now with Cummins as skipper and Carey as keeper etc those guys are genuine good dudes that would fit right in with the Black Caps setup. Just sucks they’re with Warner and co
