SA Footy

Ross and Zampa to come - it's going to be an uphill battle from here.

Cooper the obvious key, hopefully the rest can stick around - it's a long tail..

Ross 6(13)
Cooper 22(38

Ross out LBW

SA 5/71 - Game Over

5/71

At least i didnt get my hopes up this time after the win earlier in the week

6/80

Cooper out - doesn't look impressed.. perhaps no bat?

SA 6/80

7/86

So disappointing - from chasing down such a large total the other day, to struggling to get 100 today

It's clear we lack an extra batsman in the line-up though - it's a very long tail!

Ah it must be cricket season.....Redbacks are collapsing during a batting innings

110 all out

Sack Chuck!

Well my question was answered today.
What happens when our 2 class batsmen fail ?

It was a VERY DEFINITIVE answer

Shiiits me no end when umpires stand there for an eternity and then finally put their finger up as if they've been conned into it.
Can understand taking a little time with an LBW but a caught behind appeal like that one, you should know in your mind in an instant whether you think its out or not out. To take the time he did, clearly showed he wasnt at all sure and was talked into it. PATHETIC UMPIRING !
This CRAP from the commentators about the umpire giving the batsman the chance to walk is UTTER CRAP. Any umpire that has that rationale shouldnt be umpiring. Extremely unlikely to have had a bearing on the result but thats not the point.

New South Wales 9/266

Smith 72 (83)

Putland 2/54
Zampa 2/64

South Australia 110 (31.3)

Cooper 28 (47)

Starc 4/27 (8.3)

NSW won by 156 runs

Watto got bowled by a full toss from Zampa

Did he ask for a review, could've been a no-ball? Or just trudged off the ground glaring at everyone?

Watto's reactions to his dismissals are hilarious.

Yeah it's great entertainment, I don't know what it is about him but I just can't dislike him no matter how much he carries on.

Realistically to be fair to the backs, Last week was something of an overachievement, not that WA bowlers did much right either.
The side NSW put out today would not look out of place in the Aussie Green & Gold for a tri-series.
When you have Smith & Starc on song no international side was comfortable let alone the mighty SA Redbacks with their list of loyal battlers.
