The Ashes Thread.

[Headworx]

I used to like giving the Poms shite about having Ben Stokes, a KIWI in their team but ...
listening to him being intervied after the game, I was surprised to hear how 'English' he sounded

You, shit stirring again 'aye?. Can't help yourself can you...

Ben Stokes tattoos give his true identity away, the 3 Lions are prominent on his arm. Oh wait, that was KP the Sth African bloke, Stokes has Maori tribal ink . And why we're walking down that path, where the actual fuck did the whole 3 Lions thing come from in the first place?. The only 3 Lions ever seen in England were in a zoo so surely it should be the 3 Rabbits, or maybe Otters. Sparrows perhaps?.

A bunch of pommy crim descendants from an Aborigal penal colony talking about heritage.

You couldn't make this shit up

And their crime was probably buggering sheep.

^^Would be great if they all had surnames like "Worrabongalonga" or somesuch, eh?

You, shit stirring again 'aye?. Can't help yourself can you...

HW ... I've got to be honest ... I have no idea what you're on about

I have no idea about the 3 Lions tattoos ... I've never bought it up.

About Stokes, there banter on here about how he's a KIWI, but, in my post I was just making the point that,
when I heard him interviewed, he had an English accent, which usually only develops if you have
lived most of your life in that country.

So fair play that Stokes is English.

[David48atTD]

^ But, if you want to see shite stirring ...

Aborigal

Dill, is Aborigal as to Aboriginal

as Austria is to Australia?

[Dillinger]

^^Would be great if they all had surnames like "Worrabongalonga"

Like The Real Kevin Worrabongalonga...



Even looks like a proper Australian

Bet he can catch as well

[Dillinger]

I don't hear any of you Austrian crims yodelling today. Hahaha

[David48atTD]

^^ That would be the 'Merv Hughes' gene pool line ... the hairy-back

[Dillinger]

Looks like Terry is from that line too

[David48atTD]

The hairy-back line is strong in the Yodeling Austrians

[Saint Willy]

What are these Aussies gonna be like when they actually lose the ashes

Careful, that could come back and bite you.

[Headworx]

So, not content with stealing players from other countries these shameless cretins are happy to rob their national emblem from other countries too?. Not seeing why, this could make a great looking and menacing tattoo on anyone's arm:

[Saint Willy]

Give it a rest you whinging convict [at][at][at][at].

There have been plenty of times when you've had the rub of the green or have outright cheated, and here you have just got beaten by a better man/team.

Now fuck off.

The DRS is shite. It is supposed to stop howlers. WTF was that? So what if all our reviews have been used or not, Blindy Freddy shoulda stepped in and said hey fellas, that one is out.

Having said that, what an end and well done Stokes.

A red for congratulating youse.


Jeeze you poms are sour. Moan if you lose, Moan if you win.

[Saint Willy]

Let's be honest: stuff like captaincy is a bit too hard for most aussies.

Too cerebral.

How the fuck did Leach face about five balls in ten overs?

Listening to that idiot wicketkeeper after the game it's clear nobody told him you're supposed to bring the field in when the batsman needs a single.

He just blamed his bowlers instead.

Great leadership there.

Yep. Mystified me. First thing we learned in school boys cricket. Last 2 balls of each over. Aussies lost the plot. Pressure and all that,

[harrybarracuda]

Aussies lost the plot. Pressure and all that,

The best evidence of that was Lyons fumbling an easy run out and them using a review Stevie Wonder would have left alone.

[Saint Willy]

Best example. But happened well before that. Use of the new ball in Session 2 was woeful. Allowing Stokes to stay on strike... England outplayed us. Yes, we were robbed by the umpire, but we had plenty of other chances earlier we squandered. Its a bit like boxing or UFC don't leave it to the judges if you wanna win the fight.

[Little Chuchok]

looks like a great win for the Kiwis! Oh yeah baby!!

[NamPikToot]

Has TD got more than its fair share of whinging Aussies or is this a national trait that doesn't get broadcast.

I dunno, but tell me how many poms just come out of the woodwork ?

Weren't you buried until recently? its a remarkable resurrection, almost immaculate

[Saint Willy]

And my first post back on return?

They've inherited that from the Poms alright and bottling and snatching defeat from the Jaws of victory now too, by the look

[Dillinger]

And my first post back on return?

Where were you when all your countrymen were getting the piss ripped out of them during the CWC?




Have alooki back in the Cother cricket thread, there are some proper golden nuggets in there

[NamPikToot]

I've noticed that the Sheilas have got more balls than the fellas over there these days - we've got an overcrowding problem in our prisons, perhaps a fresh injection is required.
