Not just him either. It was a golden age to match the other great eras of Aust. cricket.
Just on the BBL.... Who the *smile* signed off on the gear they're all wearing this year?
Each shirt looks like a different shade of technicolour chunder!
Makes Essendon's clash strip looks like it's been designed by Ralph Lauren!
Speaking of clashes..... the Einstein of AFL clash strips is obviously moonlighting over at CA.. who thought Pink v Red lastnight was a great combination for TV coverage?
Yeah, I know 2 blokes have bats etc.... still looks like shìt!
Rant over!

I consider myself lucky x 2... (as I imagine some other older farts on here are also) to have been around for the 70s and 80s....
Apparently CA have disabled the sharing of footage from YouTube... but if you click the link it'll take you there... DKL v VR.. !
O’Keefe reveals disappointment with Australia’s dwindling passion for cricket
"Give yourself an uppercut."

Think we will see this issue in a lot of sports.
Monetise your existing fan base with pay tv.
But lose the future by not being on FTA. Not sure you can put the genie back in the bottle either. AFL beware with it’s Thursday night heavy fixture etc.
Hah hah play delayed at Pussy Park due to the ground being too wet. Too much p!ss or liquid salt on the surface....
Game now abandoned. What a sh!t ground!!!!

Selwood was on the ground before the start of play, I reckon the cat...'ducked' under the covers and peed on the pitch.
Meant to post this myself but didn't get to it so thanks for posting. It simply disgusts me to lose sporting events like this from F2A onto Pay TV platforms like Amazon. Yanks hardly knew what cricket was 20/30 years back. They had baseball, right, so didn't give a ---- about that quaint English crud.Wow now this will be interesting..

Whatever your beliefs I think it’s a bad decision of Ussie to protest during the cricket. Sets a really bad precedent that will be hard to wind back.
Sport & politics don’t mix. Sport is the equaliser, not a platform to push your beliefs on field. Off field go for it.
I hope cricket Australia pull him up on it tbh.
Where do you draw the line once the Pandora’s box is open? It’s bigger than him.

I think it’s pretty hard to argue with the statements ‘freedom is a human right’ and ‘all lives are equal’ though. They’re universal enough to fit outside the description of political agenda or belief, so I think it’s play on.
I'm not debating whether what he says is right or not but it's not the forum for it.
Anyway CA has told him no. Right call.
