1. TASMANIAN Cricket Mafia. OK, take me through this. Selector Boon, new recruit selector Jamie Cox, batting coach Dene (spelling tells yo they are off the pace) Hills, bowling DUD coach Troy Cooley, Ponting, Hilfenhaus, Paine then remember Krezja and the madman quick - Geeves - and think through Australia A - George Bailey. Who do they bring in this week into Australia A when there was an injury in the latest hit and run...Ed Cowan. Who is next? Xavier Doherty?
Greg Chappell needs to break this down. Maybe Akermanis will play for Australia in cricket yet after signing to join them last week in AFL.
2. I went to the GWS Season launch on Tuesday night just gone. The colours are terrible and Wests Tigers have every reason to blow up. Unoriginal. Sheedy says all the right things but there is very little Western Sydney in this outfit. They will struggle. The worst thing about their operation is that they needed a stadium in western Sydney - with a rail station nearby. They had this possibility then they move to Homebush. Sydneysiders do not see Homebush as a 'home' of anything. It is a place you go for an event only. No loyalty can be built through that venue - ever.
3. Khawaja and Ferguson. What a pair of duds! Kerry O'Keefe puts it this way: MORE NICKS THAN AN ATHENS NITECLUB!!! They are given every reason to play and they fall over at the crucial time. All credit to Hussey who like Graeme (Gra - heemee) Wood before him was able to pluck out a ton when everyone thought he was gone. North better perform too. I agree with Slats. We surrender any advantage with a soft middle order.
4. Hauritz. Flash forward twenty years. "Kids yes, Poppy is not lieing... I played cricket for Australia and can you believe they also put me on a tour to India twice..." 'That's bullshit Pop".
5. Alyce Perry has a voice on commentary that sounds like a five year old boy. Shocker. Bring back Kate Fitzpatrick or Stephanie Brantz to the commentary cheam.
6. Wallabies. Isn't the end of the season tour the same old story? It is that boring it is unbelievable. When will they take it seriously. Alan Jones is right. Too many blokes in the team. Too many combinations. If I was a NRL executive I'd be offering Giteau money to come to league. Deans has never rated him. he would be near rock bottom at present.
7. Chelsea. They have hit the wall and have some serious problems to solve before the Russian mafia solve a few of them for themselves. Ambromovich will not tolerate this slump.
