Australia have no ******* balls. We are going to be nice guys now apparently and the lack of agression in day one turned my beer sour. Ok the wicket is a POS road typical of these cheats. The way to go is to try and get catchers in front of the wicket, get the field up and at least risk 600 rather than giving it up with in-out fields and easy singles in the first session of a test. At 0/186 I had had enough. The icing on the cake was no slip and an edge going for four. Strarc is busting his arse and Timid Timmy has them scattered like a bar after a beer fart, not good enough son.

The selections were shite too. Siddle gets selected because he can hold up and end. Say what? We need twenty wickets to win a test and we are selecting blokes because they can bowl lots of overs and keep the runs down? What sort of ******* shit is that? Holldand is ******* shite too, we know that already. Who to pick instead, why not Zampa? We've tried just about every other tweaker in the land what's one more? At the moment we have a two man attack, I'm stunned we finished up with three wickets last night.

When you've had to watch Geelong's rubbish all year I was hoping for something better last night and was sadly disappointed.

Agree with most of that, except Holland - shit or not, he's certainly earned his opportunity over the past few seasons, it's good to see consistent Shield form finally rewarded instead of gifting caps on potential.

I was stunned the Aussies elected to field last night - only guess is they think the pitch will only get better to bat on over days 3 and 4, but a lot of defeatist like behaviours yesterday.

i hope you are taking the P*ss this Bedge. we will be lucky to even bat in this game. the pitch is horrible and flat, as a batsman if you get to 30 it should be 230!

I agree with the shield form is good, but Holland is a dead set snuff. how he gets wickets here is beyond me and i think we should have taken Zampa or Swepson, Agar needs to play next game over holland

Beer or optimism?

They are scoring at a tick over 2.5 per over so a result still possible.

So blood Doggett or Neser instead of playing Siddle then?

Missing Hazlewood and Cummins is massive.

Talking cricket with a mate while watchimg last night I said hopefully Zampa and Swepson have good shield seasons to give them a chance to push for higher honours.

Is there a reason for their horrible run rate despite bat dominating the ball? Keeps us in the game

Bit rich calling these guys cheats and saying the pitch is a road, Aussie pitches have been just as flat for the past few seasons other then Adelaide and cheating well we know what happened there :D
