So it's started.

Last match both McGrath and Warnie will play at the G

Warnie on 699 wickets...

Looking good, so far with the bowling!

Beer + Bourbon + Air Con + Pool + TV's + BBQ + Cricket + mates

What a way to spend Boxing Day, if only the GF would oblig me a bit of rumpty tee tumpty afterwards (doubtful due to the presence of Bullet Burbon and usually the extreme desire to lie face first on the couch and snore), oh and the Syndey to Hobart start, what a DAY *roy + HG* when too much sport is not enough...

EDIT :: Its only 9:30am here in WA... :( not allowed to start drinking till 11am, how bloody unAustralian, and she's a POM... :) makes the taunts even better...

Bloody s***ty Melbourne and they're poxy weather, the rest of the country put on sensational weather for all 5 days...victoria letting the team down :(

Lee strikes, Collingwood gone!!! Now for Warney v Pietersen

f*** yeah.

wouldn;t it be awesome if warnie gets KP for his 700'th wicket !!

WARNEY'S GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

not better way to get it either, hit the stumps no questions about it.

also no question he's a legend.

he is a mother f***ing legend!@

What a great bowl :)

I'd love to see England out for <250 (again).

Awesome ball, can't beat hitting the stumps. Theres not a better way he could've snagged that 700th.

Top stuff Warney!

farken, warnie shoulda had KP

Clark got Freddie tho :)

you know if warney was a pom he would be knited after that

^ knighted or knitting?

you know if warney was a pom he would be knited after that

He'd be what?

Warnie got KP :)

Warney would be KNITED!!!

Is that like a turkey slap but instead a couple of old grannies pop out a saggy titty and slap you with it? He'd probaby like that and text them later... :)

GO YOU CHAMP....

PS HeardY we're onto the bourbons now!

if warne hadn't had all the off field s***, he would more then likely get an honourary knighting.

anyways here's hoping he gets the 5 fa


6:30am now :(

slweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

Isn't it Boxing Day over there?

How unbloody Australian, here we are kicking the poms fair and square in the nuts and all you want to do is sleep! You'd better be down the local at openning to give it to any pom with in ear shot!

yeah just starting boxing day!

well Saint Stephen's day as the f***en Irish call it, I told 'em all at work it's boxing day :p

I will stay up till stumps, close enough now - Aus will need to face a few over I rekon

BOOM warnie gets 5

Langer gone!

im not gay or anything, but i would so do it to warney, should the chance ever present itself

Lee gone too

fukin beer haha

well its 8am here, so I am off to sleep.

good day 1 I rekon :)

wtb youtube of warnies sevenhunge, i missed it :(

just watch the news for replay it made the headlines

BAHAHAHAHA.

How the f*** did that fly under the radar... (or is it just me)

Woah! Proving cricketers can do anything in India.

Just watching the highlights package on BBC now...I don't know how Warney was bowling generally through his spells (we get 30mins of footage), but the poms certainly did their best to make him look better...5 wickets from guys trying to go for slogs. Stupid stupid batting... only the rain could stop it from being 5-nil.

fking LOL @ brett lee in crazy indian song AHAHAHAHA

ahahha that brett lee song has got to be a gee up

hahaaha @ brett lee

also, jezus @ cricket. Australia always seems to play worse when they've just smashed the s*** out of the other team

Can i get a direct link to that film clip plz?

I gotta send that to some mates

http://www.youtube.com/p.swf?video_id=6pZuGJW08Uw&eurl=&iurl=http%3A//sjc-static6.sjc.youtube.com/vi/6pZuGJW08Uw/2.jpg&t=OEgsToPDskJEEeM_v5dWxliThaQ-ki5w

ty

haha, im sure theres a shorter link to it, but that one does work :)

Symonds > Watson

Symonds > Watson

You have to at least feel a bit sorry for the guy, gets injured and has to sit out the entire series...and surely now you think Symonds is at least gonna get a bunch more games from this performance...11 months till the next test matches as well

Gonna be a long hard wait for Watto.

Holy crap, that must have been an onslaught!

I have always said that Symonds is one of, if not the greatest ONE DAY player Australia has ever produced, but that he would never cut it in tests. I humbly eat my words (with some salt and pepper - Hayden/Symonds style).

Now the only question is - Will Roy turn up to the game drunk tomorrow?

Shorter link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pZuGJW08Uw

Oh wow that clip is hilarious, go Brett Lee!

clarke was originally put in to take the place of watson and he also owned it up

apparently everyone reckons watson is soft and needs to harden up to retain a place in the aus team. I feel sorry for him though, missing out on this ashes experience. Then again, things might have gone a bit differently hard stuart clarke not stepped in and owned.

hahah at the poms.

I went to a mate from works place for boxing day/st stephens day (as they call it) and schooled him on the cricket, whilst getting blind drunk :p

Watched it till 5am (Irish time) - tea.

Roy and Haydo's owned it up hard. Tempted to watch the first hour or so tonight to see if Roy is just going to cut sik with Warnie and hit his 2 hunge

We'll bowl them out sub 200 again for sure

my prediction for today:

Roy to get a triple century in record time :p
Warne to get the ONLY thing that has eluded him in test cricket, a test century!!! Warnie will get a ton today

awww yeah

fyi, i have also now added hayden and symonds to the list of men i would do

well that's fuced, roy gawn :(

warne still to get a century :P

ok, so we've been bowled out

a lead of 260

whats the bet it's over today??

TWO DORRAH!!

McGrath Strikes!!!! woooooo

f*** YEAH

pieterson gawwwwwwn

maybe I wont go to bed now :p

Straight through the gate!!! Clarkey is on fire

Read is Warney's bitch.

awww Binger, it's all over

A genuinely tear-jerking moment watching the revered Shane Warne walk of his MCG for the last time.

Only time will tell how much this great man will be missed.

I know the tabloids will miss his zany antics!

don't get too excited about Symonds. Nobody doubted he could score a test century, but once every 30 innings or so still isn't going to cut it.

I get the feeling that he has been working towards an innings like this vs finally lucking out and getting it. Hoping he can back it up with some solid innings.

We'll see spidz, Personally I think he's learning how to build a test match innings everytime he goes out to bat. What I would like to see is Ponting using him more often for his offspinners working in tandem with a Warne/MacGill at the other end.

don't get too excited about Symonds. Nobody doubted he could score a test century, but once every 30 innings or so still isn't going to cut it.

Hate to say it but I agree. Symonds is good but only if he gets going. Once he gets settled he's hard to get out, it's the getting settled part that he seems to have the most trouble with.

His test century reminded me of the time he made 150 odd against pakistan in the 03 world cup and never looked back.

Symonds is almost worth having on the team just because of his fielding.

Also, stupid england, now I have nothing to do for the next 2 days. Couldn't they have drawn it out past three days? Losers.

Really makes you wonder, Warnie comes on and knocks out 40 runs yet noone in England's entire batting order (apart from Strauss) can even match that with 2 attempts each! :/

Isn't symonds test batting average like 18 or some rubbish?

According to baggygreen its now 26.11

Interestingly he has hit 14 sixes in 12 tests. That would have to be a rare stat - more sixes than matches played...

And he is still keeping a 90+ strike rate in ODI's.

Perfect SCG send off requires McGrath getting the last wicket in the first innings, Warne getting the last of the second, and both batsman not being dismissed in the match (they don't necessarily have to bat).

f*** that Warnie need to get back in with the bat and smack out a ton!

Warnie to open the batting and get a double ton

lololol
