Anyone interested in Australian cricket these days? Is this the weakest Australia cricket team ever?

David Warner ~41 avg
Ed Cowan ~33 avg
Phillip Hughes ~33 avg
Shane Watson ~36 avg
Steve Smith ~32 avg
Matthew Wade ~37 avg
Glenn Maxwel ~10 avg
Mitchell Johnson ~22 avg
Peter Siddle ~14 avg
James Pattinson ~31 avg
Nathan Lyon ~13 avg

Not a single player over 50 avg and only 1 above 40. :shock: Is this really our future test cricket?
We were ordinary in the eighties I think even the Kiwis were beating us , except in the underarm game :D
 
Not my dog, she'd move out if she couldn't have the finer things in life. :p She is very picky!
Eye fillet or wagyu?

At least she ain't asking for friendship rings, engagements rings, wedding bands, eternity rings, reconfirm friendship rings, reconfirm wedding rings etc.

Can you tell I am single with no chance of ever being married? :shock: :p

Correct.

Alan Border was averaging 50+ and from memory he did not miss a test after being dropped in the 70's very early on in his career. And Michael Clarke is not quite Alan Border yet.

I think Australia need to schedule some test against Ireland, Kenya, Canada to get the confidence back in some of their batsmen....

Me too, although I am getting used to having a cat about. At least her main wants are clean kitty litter, raw chicken necks and play times at

3 am.

That is understandable. And I am sure the cat does not nag and nag....
 
I like my dog as much as I like my diamonds :p

Friday night plans have had a spanner thrown in them; off to the doctor to check I haven't busted my wrist. Not sure why its always Friday that I manage to do these things.

All is not lost. You can lift your drink using your other hand. ;) :D

Oh, so it wasn't an UDI? ... that's the type of most Friday injuries!

I so want to bag the Sky Sports team covering the England v New Zealand test....but they were absolutely lovely. Nicest bunch of folk I have met in a hotel lounge since the last AFF meet.

Hope all is good,

But it is too early for injuries yet
 
Some of you might remember the impeding demise of my 20+ year old clock radio. Reset the time last weekend after it gained 30 minutes inn3 weeks. It's still on the correct time this week. :confused: Guess it fixed itself.

You must've given it such a good wind up that it realised you were ticked off and decided it wasn't going to get a second chance once you explained in minute detail what was going to happen if it got ahead of itself.

It knew it was on a death watch.
