You moron, the least you can do before calling for womeones head is make sure of your facts. Treu had an awesome squad for the first torunaments last year. Then they all were swiped back by their S14 squads, leaving him with a third rate squad.

He has learnt from that, and has now contracted 12-odd players for a few years, so that they don’t have to go back to their S14 squads.

These current players are not the best players that we can put formward, and are mostly greenhorns, but they have potential and at least they will be there and play with each other consistently. And Jake has shown us what consistency and experience can do.

In the press reports over the lat few weeks, he has said that they ar building for 2009. If you consider that this is teh first outing for a relatively new team, then getting to teh semi’s isn’t too bad. Only thng is that I think Tietjen’s NZ team is also quite new one – not sure if they are permanently contracted for a few years though.

Obviously it also doesn’t help when your star players goes around pushing the ref and getting sent off either. Not the coaches fault that.

Must admit, he is currently the best batsman in the world in can probably be ranked in the top 3 all time batmen but he is a ****. Just something that really cheeses me off about his attitude/demeanour, like you say, doos comes to mind…

Wallabie – smith can stay sith! hehehe

Ciao ciao.

Ponting was sounding a little hypocritical to me.

Sometimes I think he is a good captain but he implanted foot into mouth then…doos!

O, ok.

By the way, interesting to listen to Ponting on Friday night saying they need to look at the schedule, to much cricket and injuries all around… It would have carried a whole lot more water if I did not hear last night about half the national cricket team, including the same said Ponting, signing up for a 20/20 series in India next year. I suppose to much cricket does not count when $$$ are part of the deal.

No worries mate!

I was really looking forward to the SA series and was hoping sa was going to win at least one test to make it an interesting summer…nothing came of it.

The first test was the best then SA fell apart…real grit was evident in the first test and Aus were full of praise but something happened.

Sith made a horror decsion to give ponting the third test win…altho it was applauded that he wanted a result…you dont make it easy for opposition.
he wont make that mistake again..if SA cant win then walk away with a draw..it is test cricket.

If sa only lost 1-0 while in aus they would have had our measure in SA but that third test in aus was a kick in the nads and bent SA over.

I say play positive cricket and if you cant win…dont lose!

Ons het lekker gesonde kos gehad. Groentes, slaaie, volstruis steaks, hoender…
