Going down the Chappelli path!

I don't think he's anything like him!

Was just saying to mates how cricket commentary has gone down the gurgler, especially in the FTA space.

Hayden is horrendous.

Langer, bloody hell.

I don't mind Blewie and Ponting. Ponting at least talks about the game and gives his insights.

Hayden is as bad as has ever been, dude, calm the f*ck down.

Langer faps on about the baggy green when only 466 Australians have had the honor of wearing it and he carries on like we know what it's like.

They can both go and get f*cked.

Hayden spent 5 minutes yesterday babbling about the baggy green like he was reading from the J. Peterman catalog

At least he’s in and out like a gut ache, and has props, the other two you know you’re stuck with for half an hour, and the try to out-idiot each other.

Stood down from two guest speaking appearances by Cricket Australia during the Perth test match, was replaced by Mike Hussey. Johnson's roll on Triple M was not effected.
