Wrap - We're All Doomed, Sam Burgess Is Leaving

1. Not sure what has happened to the schedulers at Cricket Australia but memo for 2014/2015: Don't leave a two week break between main Big Bash games and finals. It is absurd. People forget who is in the teams and lots of blokes go on holidays.

2. Noticed that 189,000 fans turned up at the Scotsdale Arizona Phoenix Open in ONE day. Quiet place on a weekend? Can't recall that many fans loving Bubba Watson all at once. Incredible numbers really.

3. Can someone explain why Shaun Marsh was picked (average lower than Rhonda's ditching of Katoosh). Equally you pick Phil Hughes....please. Is he really going to displace Watson and bat at number six? Any chance the Neil D'Costa - Clarke connection helped? This is his sixth re-incarnation. The cat.

And how about old NSW mate, Moooiiiises Henriques? Where will he play? A net practice bowler. Batting not much better. He has had more chances than Justin Beiber.

The Big Show...has a lot of talent. James Brayshaw has dead set fallen in love with him. Sometimes "The No Show".

4. 20-20. Cameron White has finally found a place in cricket. He and Finch have been awesome. The English are a schemozzle. We look better when McDermott is bowling coach and Mike Young as fielding coach. Mike Young is something else. Sharp.

5. Not sure if you caught up with the news from World Wrestling...Jake the Snake Roberts. He has been inducted into the Wrestling Hall of Fame. All the way from Stone Mountain Georgia.

6. Piers Morgan v Ian Chappell. I think Ian Chappell's words to him were gold. 'You're a dickhead'. Just about sums it up.

7. ManuU are gone and the coach will be close. If he wasn't a mate of Sir Alex's he would be in another country by now.

8. Ellyse Perry. Now not only does she have style and class, she single handedly wins cricket games. Superb athlete and inspiration. Mastered the game at the nets most afternoons with her dad, Mark.

9. Rugby League I ...Willie Mason. Dope, goose, fool. It is amazing how dumb things follow this man.

10. Rugby League II...Parra signings...Now let's see who we can purchase who has a healthy streak of the goose in him...Perhaps Liam Foran (has got a great surname, anything else?) biffing his family for cash or maybe Lee Mossop who's having surgery and might be ready for round 10 or 12. Great value.

11. Does anyone think that after S Burgess we will fall in a heap? Is there anything more contrived and stupid than another bloke going to Rugby? I'm confident that the game will prosper after he leaves as it did before he arrived.

12. Davis Cup...terrible. Excuses abound, but we are rotten and deserve to play Thailand, Canada, Zimbabwe and Iran for a few years more.

13. Superbowl. Mayweather put $15 million on the Denver Broncos. Looks like he'll be fighting real soon again.

14. Noticed Stuart Binney has joined the ranks of the Indian team. However, 'the selectors left Binney out last night...' NZ crushed them...Ross Taylor is in some sort of form. Guptill, Williamson...in form.
