@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-474: Haha..you live in SA but you know so little about what is going on right under you nose. Fancy blaming JS and in the past JW for manfully accepting responsibility for a team that was supposed to be run by a professional body instead of that snake pit that receives huge amounts of money to do - WHAT? SFA that what!

@Hurricane(Hurricane)-557:

Aaaaahhhh….. finally I can talk to my NZ bretheren without getting heated. Must have something to do with the fact that we are not talking the oval ball here.

Spot on… In laymens terms, a googly is a leg spinner that turns into a off spinner and visa versa. It gets more complicated when one intoduces whether the spin is wrist or finger induced…. thereafter you get a new term called the”doorsra”….. but lets not go there!

The flipper you have spot on again…. its a top spinner out of the top of the fingers that has loads of topspin, keeps low and travels at a rapid pace, despite looking very sedate out of the hands

Now I am all Warneyed out…

@Bod(bod)-554: Dan is one of the best spinners around. Of course he relys on variation of pace and fight over anything else. Googly my understanding is a wrongen, dont know if you spell it like that and the flipper looks as though its a leg spinner but comes quicker and does not turn, so straightens, am i right?

“same action but instead of spinning away from the bat, it carries straight thru instead” ?

BOD

you’re right, I’m not really a cricket man esp the technicalities.

So correct me if I’m wrong (but just betw u and me, don’t tell Von Trapp)

‘a flipper has the same action as a leg-spin googly

@Black Panther(Black Panther)-552: Panther, Panther, Panther There is a huge difference between a googly (disguised.... que?) and a flipper.... maybe not in Black Craps cricket terms, but certainly in the rest of the cricket world. No wonder Dan the Man (Vettori, that is) never knew the difference...

@Bod(bod)-546: duh, he struggled with the flipper because it was a disguised-googly.

@Hurricane(Hurricane)-528: The silver lining is that we finally got rid of PdV the clown. Had we got to the semi Saru would've given him another 4 year contract. 8 years of skop en jag and his pathetic drivel at every press conference.

@ashampoopaloo(joel1yahoo)-474: I hear ya man. I'm also pretty angry. Its not just Smit to blame its Matfield. Smitfield is what I call the Boks of 2011. We should've easily one that game. PdV and Rassie must also take responsibility along FdP who did not go for more drop goals. Had Frans Steyn been playing in that match we would've won.
