    @Virgil I guess it could have been pretty cold if it was something like 'Phil would think you're a disgrace' - I can see that would cut pretty hard. But if it wasn't related to Phil (RIP bro) and was just your run of the mill bants then suck it up princess.

    In any case Davy there is only one person to look at around all of this.... YOU, being the brains trust that came up with the smooth (aka gritty) plan to tamper with the ball then throw all and sundry under the bus.

    God Davey is such a flog. Walking off a field because of a sledge? After all you've dished up over the years, the time you decide to draw a line is... in a middle of a grade game against Wests?

    I don't care if he graphically described having relations with your dead grandmother - you don't leave the fucking field. Put them to the sword then complain after the game if you have to.

    Every time you want to feel even a shred of sympathy for him, he goes and does something like this that reminds you that, no, he really is just a phenomenal fucktard.

    My favourite new descriptor! Flog!

    really? holy shit it's the absolute best! And perfect for Davey

    And why do they insist on wheeling his rent-a-quote missus out to defend him all the time? Do they really think that helps his image in the public sphere?

    I really don't understand what they are trying to do with his "image". Everyone knows he's a belligerent, floggy dwarf with a big mouth, there is years of evidence to support it. And you know what, if he scores hundreds for Australia, no one gives a fuck really. Let him be the best floggy belligerent dwarf he can be, who also averages 50 at almost a run a ball.

    Oh, and that players pact is the fucking stupidest shit ever. Is this more or less binding than the assurances made in the wake of the Phil Hughes tragedy?

    CA knows it, and the players know it. If you are winning, no one cares how many times you call the opposition fluffybunnies. Just don't lose a lot, that's what changes opinions.

    Turn on the TV after returning from a bike ride and what do I discover.

    Oz is playing South Africa in an ODI in Perth in a series I didn't even know was on.

    It has just started and Steyn is bowling to Head. And second ball I watch Steyn gets him! And before the over is out he's got Short as well.

    Happy days! I might not bother doing anything productive in the rest of the afternoon now. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Oz has a pretty strong team on paper. Useful early inroads by the Saffas, but need to keep picking up wickets - and especially Chris Lynn!

    Playing the opening ODI in Perth may not have been the best move.
    Though no doubt when this was scheduled Oz expected to have their best 2 batsmen playing...
