Didnt they just sign Boof for a few more years? :roll: :roll:

And as for sending in nightwatchmen, Thats just a sign of weekness.
FFS No, 1 team in the world are sending out bowlers to do batsmens jobs,
Quite simply PATHETIC and you deserve to be embarrassed with such negative tactics.
Australia became No, 1 in the 90s by taking the game on, not hiding behind a rock.
Not to worry, have a home series coming up and they'll all be heroes again batting on spinless roads

Agreed and thought the same. Sending Lyon out there was bullshit, definitely a weak tactic. You're a top order batsman FFS you should be good enough to handle it so get out there, face the music and make some runs.

Kahwaja showed how piss weak he is mentally, his dismissal on top of the decision to send Lyon in backs it up

The Aussies were very chatty for a team that is about to lose their 8th consecutive game in a row in Asia. Maybe sort your shit out instead of talking, their becoming the new India just flat track bullies. I rate Warner but he must step up today as he hasn't made a ton away from home in 14 tests, he's got to lift as vice captain.

Why dont we develop quality batsmen of spin anymore??

Reverse sweeping, piss off. How about using your ******* 2 feet to dance down the wicket and negate the spin......

Just looks more and more we are flat track bullies

Correct Jako.. Drop in pitches have taken away the diversity we used to have. Paying the price now when it spins... Or seams!

Marginal between him and the dud he replaced.

Its an embarrassment that Holland has been selected, its a worse selection than Agar,

In order of shitness of decision to select:
1. McGain
2. Agar
3. Holland
