Blokes couldn't give a **** when they counting all their cashOriginally Posted by plague
****s give a **** about on par as the Jets do for winning games

Don't worry boiz, Steven O'Keefe is the answer to all our woes apparently.
Him and Maxwell the new Spin Kings.
But the other answer is to drop Khawaja again
The only bloke besides Renshaw who actually will be prepared to occupy the crease rather than play flashy shots
This in a side bereft of blokes prepared to bat time
Nearly everyone of these ****s gets out in the sub continent for **** all as they don't want to face 40-60 balls getting in before trying the big shot
In a side with this problem why they persist with Maxwell defies belief
He a luxury you just can't afford in a weak side
They say test cricket is on the way out, not because of the public but the players. They can earn trillions playing hit and giggle for four hours - whey play test cricket for five days?
Just like footballers, it is now about getting the most coin, not what the best challenge is. They have their coin, oversize bats, short boundaries, drop in pitches - they have become lazy.
Forget about nets - to train for tests properly put these twits on a field, two at a time and force them to bat a full day each, with fresh bowlers and fielders rotating. Nets does nothing for technique.
Depends what you mean by technique. Nets are pretty much the best way to improve technically. The issue is that scoring runs isn't just about being the most skillful bloke with a bat. Glenn Maxwell is obvious proof of that - the bloke can bat. But his decision making, mental game, patience, determination etc , whatever aspects you want to pick on, are clearly not suited for test cricket.
Other than that I agree with most of your points. And 100%, if top order test batsmen at some stage are not spending multiple hours at a time at the crease in practice, with directives to not give up chances then they should be.
Here we go again.
My man Jetmaster complaining that the only section of society who shouldn't aim to work less and earn more are professional sportspeople.
I'm sure my man Jetmaster made his post by writing a letter and paying for a stamp and putting it in the postbox because using technology to get your point across cheaper and faster surely would be against his standards.
Hey Plague when they get beaten by shit ****s like Bangladesh then they have no excuses
Employee or doing it for the love of it this result is unacceptable
Players are weak as piss and wouldn't have lasted 5 mins under Simpson Border Tugger Waugh Ian Chappell etc
These current players are weak as piss and there is no other way to dress it up
Correct Plague - so wish I wasn't a capitalist pig.
Read my post as I was stating that as a fact, not criticizing it. More players are going for the T20 merry go round (eg Chris Gayle). That's fine do it and earn as much as you can.
But then don't say test cricket is the ultimate challenge and then fold like a deck of cards because you aren't used to the conditions and haven't played any warm up games.

yeah pea hearts. Like to see them shit their pants then bat for 6hrs at Mumbai.
Then stop segregating 'players' from the rest of the public because everyone would choose the same route. Its human nature.
As for 'capitalist pig', thats a fair stretch there. These blokes have very short careers and have put all their eggs in one basket. Obviously being an elite athlete doesnt entitle you to only having to work for a few years but once sport is over only a minute % find opportunities to live on the same income. Athletes ability to maximise that income should be no concern of yours, especially when for the most part they are accepting offers which means that someone out there thinks their talents are worthy of the paycheque. But of course im sure you knock back pay rises all the time.
Besides, everyone knows all the best socialists are filthy rich. They are our modern day TV evalgenists.
and theres a sucker born every minute willing to hand over their cash for the cause.
Dunster is woke
how is it that every year, the commentators on channel 9 get worse? surely there is a base level somewhere!!!
shaun marsh is the greatest secret agent england has. tries to take out stark with a sly boot to the leg, drops a sitter. will no doubt get out at a crucial time in australia's innings.
No Smith Aus is fkd
Well you weren't wrong
agent marsh strikes again!
carn straya
Chasing 170

Ok 2nd test ready to go.
This is usually a road. Team batting 1st gets 450. 4th inns is worth 170. Bat 1st
