Bat for 10 overs this morning to get the eye in.
Then go at 10 an over, for 50 or so overs, make 1000, have the last 20 or so overs at them tonight.
Then they will know, it will be final, that NZ will always be our bitch at cricket.

Starc 160.4km

Like the herd around Glenn

The smell of rain after a disgustingly hot day.

Escape The Rain has accepted for Race 2 1200m @Warranambool on Monday.
Drawn Barrier 6. 12 starters (2em)
Pretty sure D.Yendell to ride.
It's good to be back in the game.

Rail blown down. Meeting abandoned

Safas all out for 79, trailing by 136 runs on Day 2


Were 6/12 at one stage :shock: :roll:

This pitch is an UTTER DISGRACE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its playing like a day 10 pitch early on day 2.

World cricket would be so much better off if India simply F****D off all together
Nothing wrong with the pitch, no excuse to be 6/12.
It's no worse than the Saffers serving up raging green tops for touring sides

Except SA don't. And green seemers only get better to bat on, these pitches don't. Remember how India refused to play at the WACA last tour, which made them look stupid considering what happened recently.

Soft.

1 of many words for it.

Crickets a summer sport and it wasn't that bad today.

Unfortunately heart is something you cannot train.

Cheers lads,
Massive thrill, Great feeling, Crazy close photo.

Runs a lot harder when he hits it.

Escape the Rain tomorrow at Sandown. Got barrier 11 out of 11 which will make it difficult. Yet to hear from trainer on her chances.
R3#3.

She was bad today. Not much luck, wide most of the way, but a last is still a last. just watched the replay, no luck and poorly ridden, but did not give a whimper when asked to in the turn. Spell?

Bloodstock manager livid about the ride. Was told to go forward, and if stuck 3 wide, so be it, just let her run up on the pace at her own speed. Dragging her back 6L to 2nd last and still 3 deep why she fought Yendell for 800m, not really the best thing for her, she was out of the race from that point. I think they have realised that she can't be ridden cold. She has to be put in the race.
Probably look for a easier midweek race before a break if she pulls up ok.

Batting master class tonight.

Khawaja should play before Finch in every single format ever.

Khawaja needs to be 2nd man selected after Steve Smith in every form of cricket.

At least Tait bowls fast tho.
Getting hammered.
Tait is not good enough to be playing in these colours they say doesn't matter how many he goEs for he in the team to take wickets well he don't do that either, I really can't stand kholi but gee he can bat..

He bowled 1 good over for the whole big bash.

Tye bowling impressively.

Marc Murphy reappointed captain.

Wrong decision I think........Kade Simpson should have got it for 1 year before someone younger takes over.
Tom Bell looks the obvious choice to take over next year.

Either way it's gonna be a long year........yet again.

Tom Bell going to Captain Carlton while playing for Brisbane?

Had the same thing happen to a ex commitee member, great club man, 2 years ago. Played every game, dropped him for the GF,after taking 5fa in the last round. The guy that came in, took 4 and made 20odd and they won a flag.He was pissed, angry, but he was first to pre season, and does a lot around the club still.
Tomorrow he gets he gets his chance to play in a GF. Excited is an understatement for the bloke. Deserves every bit of it.

Any chance of Cloke laying a strong tackle. When your out of form, at least get them looking over their shoulder.

Yeah would have been nice to have confirmation, although In pretty sure I know what's happened and to who .. Negan looks a good character, but his monologues probably went on a bit too long.

Last bit dragged a little.
Someone has set them up and someone has died , but we don't know who. To me,one of these had to be explained.

Didn't really like how it ended either. Glenn has had more lives than a cat, maybe he finally cops it.
With Maggie's illness, maybe the baby died and is eating her out from the inside. Fetus zombie

Haha Yes. Fetus Zombie would be awesome.
I was thinking, everyone who read the comics expects it to be Glenn, but why delay if it was him. That's what makes me think Abraham.

Tonight, the Melbourne version of Craiglea Jabiru is running
R8#10. $2.20 fixed ATM.

Weak as piss by Hinkley.

That Maclure bloke is an absolute stain.

Are you serious? Massive bonus for Brisbane. His up there with the most overrated in the comp.

Really good player for the Lions, hard at it defender and they cannot afford to lose a defender

He gets bags kicked on him week in, week out. He's crap.

Pretty sure Dennis just said that Geelong 2nd tier Mids needs to catch Selwood and Dangerfield and Stokes is somewhere in between them.
I'm sure Essendon are pumped with the pick up.

Frees 21 - 8. I would love a copy of Pykes email, I'll use it to get a promotion!


Can anyone provide some context to this? Like the First to the Footy? Crows lost this stat badly last week and were rightly crucified by the Kermits

It's called home ground advantage. Been happening forever. You can so ok, or you get better.

Eat shit Sydney.

Swans did a poor job of icing the clock, had a couple of chances.
Yep, disgraceful by Towers. Needs to be dropped for that bit of play

It came down to a really lucky bounce of the ball. It was a 1 on 5 and the ball bounced straight to the Richmond bloke after a panic kick from defence. 8/10 times the ball goes another way and Swans Win.
But because Swans have rigged the comp for their entire existence, the football gods in charge tonight made the right call.
Good game.
Or the peanut could of kicked sideways to Buddy who was 40m clear and the game would of been over. At worst kick it deep to the boundary line. Just dumb football

Fawlty Towers?

Get on Danish Twist for the Stradbroke.
Really good horse.

Currently $21 ... in my price range ...can you provide an argument for it, plz?
Where's it been racing?
Trainer?
Level of Races - opposition?

Women from my work is an owner of it.
Up and coming Horse from Kris Lees stable.
Won the Provincial Championship at Randwick($500k) 3 starts back, then has followed up with 2 big wins.
Then Won at Hawksbury (100k) after drawing barrier 1 on a track you needed to be outside rail. Sat on fence 5th had to drift to outside fence and covered them easy.
Last start went to Group 3 level($200k) at Scone, jumped from widest barrier, sat 3 deep on the lead,over raced, wasn't touched until the last 200m and cleared out easy in good time once let go over some pretty handy horses.
Has to keep improving to win a race like the Stradbroke, but if she draws a gate, she is good value and,worth a little bit each way.
I will check tomorrow their plans and confirm, but they are taking her to Qld.

Shaw's kicks in their own right might not have been all that damaging, but his kicks certainly opened up the field for the next kick to be very damaging across the middle of the ground. He was really good yesterday, watching the game last night ( and f/forwarding through the crap ) the Giants really impressed me.

It will be a huge shame if they go deep in September and if they finish top 4, a likely possibility, they could potentially draw about 15,000 to a semi or prelim final. They're close on field, off field they are miles off the pace as far as getting bums on seats goes.

What about the prospect of an all Sydney Grand Final - :shock:

It would still be a sell out, and just one big corporate junket.... Good chance the camera's would pick up plenty in the crowd just yawning.

The last game of the season is no longer, one for the average punter.


I hope not, I'm going and the last thing I'd want to see is two teams, who have been given everything for their entire existence play off in a GF.

100% agree with him.

The first one I didn't have an issue with. The 2nd one he caused.

Yep,watched that race. Looked like it was going to win easily at the 150m.

Sounds like someone lost on the punt

My nag Escape The Rain runs tomorrow. Geelong R6#8. Id imagine she will need the run and a bit further. Currently $13s.

Yep, will drift back, give her an easy run, they expect her to hit the line alright, but would be surprised if she is fighting out the finish today.

Let's not sugar coat it.
6-4.
Boring as Sh!t

The news beat up around Sam Thaiday saying last nights SOO game was like losing your virginity.
If that offends you, it's time to give up all media outlets and go live in solitude.

It's at Kenilworth which is a good 500-550km south of Rocky.

Prob why they take 10 of them at a time, share the costs.

Still got no idea what your on about. U/18's??

Women's football I think.

Terrible deliberate call. Butler handballs the ball back into play gets done for deliberate as it roles out. Cost WC another goal.

Australia roll West Indies for 116 in 32 overs
Lyon 3, Zampa 3, Starc 2

Aussies win by 6 wickets.

Poor decision. Ball missing stumps.
To me, Finch's one was out.

Yep, I took Hawks by 100+@$9.50
The only way you could actually sit and watch it was to punt on it.

Danish Twist excellent win again in Sydney.
Dropped back to 1100m and spanked them.

If it was the other way around, Hawks would be 6 goals up.

Geelong backline always good when you bomb long inside 50. Clean that up all day long.

Won't matter.
Hinkley will get another season, unless it goes really bad after the break.
