I don’t know who is in charge of the Match Prediction bit of this site but whoever he is he should be taken out and belted once a day and twice on Sundays.

I’m not as good as Sibeen, I stuffed up that rather simple task.
there’s a guy out thee batting for the ‘Saffers named De Kock.
But I’m too tired to make any indecent puns about it.
FUCK OFF DE KOCK
Throws his wicket away trying to hit Smith the Worthy out of the ground. Smith brought on just to rush two or three overs to get to the second new ball, and get a wicket. Nice stuff.
Quite a good result for us last night.
I hope to be saying fuck off to the rest of the SA batsmen tonight
I’m sure Mitchell Johnson will be
FUCK OFF
yay
FUCK OFF
awesome.
i’m watching the basketball right now …
Would they declare or wait to be bowled out?
FUCK OFF
Oh yeah, last ball before tea!
fuck off

GIYF
Stephen James Harmison. Born October 23 , 1978, Ashington, Northumberland.

Aw fcuk .. next time I’ll just let you do the googling.. ;)
I thought the accent was weird, English but with a hint of Scottish.

Sometimes it is better to ask here. Someone might know, and if not it at least stimulates a bit of conversation.

I think it sounds more Scottish with a hint of English.

Watching TV one gets to see Indians and Italians, Pakistanis and well just about any non-English accented people sound just like they were born in Scotland and never spoke anything else.
But then I see a beautiful Indian girl at the local Coles who hardly says a word but when she does see some other Indians walking in, she waves and says “g’dday mates” in an ocker accent.

Notably, Harmison was a Trottskyite. He had similar depression demons on his back.
FUCK OFF
yay!
Innings break.
better go and have a long piss.

Is that anything like pouring a long tea?
I hope our guys have the patience to bat for the next one and a half days
Supposedly there is a fair chance that Monday will be rained out.
I suspect a draw is on the cards.
FUCK

playing too aggressive on this pitch.
not good. Needs a big partnership or two tomorrow to get near level.
can’t help thinking they’re trying to score too fast. 4.5 against 2.8

Lyon hasn’t been out for something like his last 7 test matches. A monty to make a ton.

I fucken hope so. Haddin and Johnson haven’t made one for about a month or two either.
FUCK
Looks like 1-1
Again our last five wickets have done better than our first five.
FUCK OFF

What I continually say to Mark Nicholas

A fantastic ball from Siddle – pitching on off and just moving away slightly off the deck – finds Du Plessis’ edge and Haddin takes the catch. A vital wicket for Australia.
Honestly, if the oz cricket team was on fire… I wouldn’t pish on them…
FAR COUGH
FUCK OFF
I wonder what the declaration will be, a number or a time?
Maybe half an hour before lunch.

I’d have a guess at just less than a 450 lead.
AUS 0-110 (Rogers 48, Warner 59) – require 338 more to win
Hopefully the weather holds.

A draw?
Better a draw than to try a fight back on a lifeless pitch I suppose.

I think this is gonna be tough… I suspect RSA will win by 100 or 150 runs but we’ve seen some miracles in test cricket of late – including RSA scoring 450 in a 4th innings chase (in RSA mind you and not more than two months ago).

And if one thing is true, it’s that of late our batting has generally been far better in the second inning…
Just hope Doolan and Marsh can do enough to finally put the Watson experiment to bed.
Big double ton from Rogers would be nice also…
Knew it was forecast to rain, but didn’t think it was due to be a washout…
I’d be more than happy with a draw.

Just any prick that can handle a bat and occupy the crease for two days would be nice. If they did this till stumps tomorrow we’ll win – swell. If it gets rained out we draw – swell. If we get impatient if the run-rate drops below 3 – we lose.

Storms and heavy rain.

FUCK
Bugger…
I reckon Clarke could do with a decent score as well…
Fuck
And Australia’s problems at 3 and 4 continue… 8/
Clarke hasn’t made more than 50 in his last 13 appearances at the crease

In the OP of this thread it was noted that perhaps SA doctored the pitch prior to the game.

Exactly, when I went to sleep we were about 1 for 400 and cruising, then I woke up, fumbled for my glasses, put my teeth in and hit the button that turns the radio back on and station surfed for the score, then I sat bolt upright.
