Re: Things that you rate!
My wife was never a big watcher of my cricket or footy, although she did come to my last ever footy game, I did my knee and got stretchered off with game held up for a few minutes, she didn't even notice until I came hobbling out of the change room post game

Wife watched 1 game of cricket that I played in (my last), scored 94 so I think I might not let her come again if I decide to don the whites again.

She probably thinks you're good now.

She probably thought “94, not bad but still finished before you’re meant to”

My missus makes the same complaint, but I don't play cricket.

Stinking hot day in the city and people of the female persuasion dressing accordingly.
Added rating for the ladies at work who despite the weather feel the need to walk up and down the stairs all morning..
Damn i'm a massive pervert.

Re: Things that you rate!
The week I have had over in Perth.
Met some cracking guys, and have enjoyed playing 4 days of competitive cricket, followed by more than a few cold beers at the end of play. Played on a couple of very good grounds, and one very poor one, the deck yesterday was awful, no other way to describe it. Copped a rough lbw decision, and a dubious one as well, also got bowled by part timer, and played a poor shot to get out yesterday. Overall disappointed with my personal contribution to the team, and our team only winning 1 of 4 games. The div 1 Vics took out the championship, beating the Sandgroppers on the WACA yesterday. Enjoyed the celebrations on the ground post game. Next year these championships come to Adelaide, like to think I will be in the mix for selection again.

At a guess you drank more beers than runs scored?

Close I think, but likely correct.
