Guest MattP Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Get Root on to bowl at this bogan. Absolutely Boycs of Steve Smith - "There are more brains in a chocolate mouse".
Guest shearfox Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Wow how he didn't think he hit that ... as clear as day!
Captain... Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 You know he only reviewed it because he thought it might have been such a fine edge that hot spot wouldn't show it, bogan.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Certainly worth that business class air fare.
Corky Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Can't believe the commentators are defending him and making lame, unfathomable excuses for him. Terrible review, makes a mockery of the system. Prat.
StanSP Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 I'd love to know what a Bogan is! Never heard that term before.
Guest MattP Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 The term bogan (/ˈboÊŠÉ¡É™n/)[1] is Australian and New Zealand slang, usually pejorative or self-deprecating, for an individual who is recognised to be from an unsophisticated background or someone whose speech, clothing, attitude and behaviour exemplifies a lack of manners and education.[2] While bogan is widely recognised, localised names exist that describe the same or very similar groups of people Stump Mic at the wicket of Warner Warner: I've not hit that. Clarke: You have. You've hit that. Warner. I'll hit you. Clarke: OK, review it.â€

Captain... Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 I'd love to know what a Bogan is! Never heard that term before. It's basically the Aussie equivalent of a redneck or a hick.
James. Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 It's basically the Aussie equivalent of a redneck or a hick. So essentially, it's an Australian.
Finnegan Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 I think I hate Stuart Broad's face. He looks like he'd be an evil prefect from a Harry Potter story.
leicsmac Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 I think I hate Stuart Broad's face. He looks like he'd be an evil prefect from a Harry Potter story. Maybe you know this already and you're going for irony, but it's funny that you should say that because he looks very much like the bloke who plays the evil prefect (amongst other antagonism) in the Harry Potter films.
StanSP Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 What do we think England can muster up here? Nathan Lyon has started off well and nearly got Cook out in identical fashion to Warner. Can they surpass Australia's total?
purpleronnie Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Be interesting to see how we play under pressure, knowing we can only get a draw.
marko Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Be interesting to see how we play under pressure, knowing we can only get a draw. No we can't. Whilst an England win is unlikely it's still possible. Just cast your mind back to Adelaide 2006. Say we bat 'til an hour after lunch on Day 4 we'd be around the 530 mark. It's far from inconceivable that the Aussies have a batting collapse and we dismiss them in 60 overs or so, which would then give us two and a half sessions to chase a total. As I said, the draw is favourite but we could still get a positive result.

StanSP Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Not good for England losing a wicket. I think they would have liked to not lose a wicket til end of play today. Bresnan as nightwatchman in.
marko Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 I know its possible but it aint happening. The pressure is on and we'll see how we cope. It's not even the end of day two so it's far to early to say we can't win. Another example is against Sri Lanka in Cardiff in '11. Test cricket is a long old game and a game that looks like a high scoring draw can be turned on its head in one session. I'm certainly not writing us off.
StanSP Posted 2 August 2013 Posted 2 August 2013 Bresnan out and he didn't even hit it! Why was he going for a pull shot?! You're a night watchman ?! 1. Another bad call from the umpire. 2. Why didn't he review?! Surely you'd know?
