I'll find it impossible to ever enjoy test cricket quite the same again as there'll never be another SK Warne again.

Agree entirely Struggles, cricket will suffer due to this.

It will lose it's biggest character and it's greatest ever spinner.

Love or loathe him there is no doubting his impact on the game.

To say he'll be missed is a massive understatement. :(

Lets hope the media have got it wrong and Shane will announce today that he,s playing on until the Chucker retires.
For the sake of the spirit of the game Shane.You cant let a chucker have the most wickets.
Yep,that would be hard to take having a chucker as the all time leading wicket taker.
If the ICC had the balls the chucker would have well an truely left the cricket field in disgrace yrs ago. :mad:

Re: Cricket

Geeze you blokes are sooks.I wouldn't mind a dollar for everytime Murali has been called a chukka in this thread.

And the bleating will only get louder as he passes your demigods record.

Move all references of Murali's action to the soft thread.

Thats because he is a chucker.I will glady see Warne's record broken by a bowler.
 
Re: Cricket

In the MX on the Beey V Boonie banter today Beefy asks Boonie if now that Warne has retired does that make Ashley Giles the world's best spin bowler? Boonie replies no that would have to be Daniel Vettori, no mention of Murali, maybe that's because he is not considered to be a bowler. On the case of the ICC it's only going to get worse once the Asian bloc get Sharad Pawar of India elected as president.

Ah the voice of reason. Last time I checked the history books Murali had a cr@p load of test wickets. Not much of a batsman mind you.

Whats soft is changes the rules to accomodate a illegal action!
5 deg becomes 15 deg to keep Chaka Khan 'pitching' for Sri lanka??

Your having a *smile* laugh you two........Bent bowling arms = Soft. Rule changes to accomodate them=Disgustingly soft!

Should we allow Carlton players to throw the ball so they can compete?

PS Warnie is bigger than a demi-god, he Marcel Bear-esq Evo.
 
Re: Cricket

More soft action by the ICC to come:

Re: Cricket

Fair dinkum you blokes.

You've been lucky enough to support probably the most dominant cricket side in history for the last 2 decades but still go on and on about the evil little guy from the civil war torn ,third world nation -trying to cheat us.

Suprised at you Struggs,I thought you were the champion of the little guy(why else would you support the small team in Fulham)

Corrupt ICC trying to cheat us with technicalities. :'( :'(

Soft and unsporting.


PS Agree Marcel Bear is very under rated.Whenever I've seen him play, he's EVERYWHERE!

Nothing like some xmas garbage Evo.Have a close look at his throwing action.
 
Re: Cricket

So it is impossible to be a chucker if you are from a civil-war-torn third world nation? ???
