Re: Redbacks choke
The game it happened being abandoned perhaps, but it doesn't warrant rearranging other fixtures

Re: Redbacks choke
Geez, letting Klinger go was a good thing so it seems (after smashing another ton against us). Redbacks look like they almost want to get wooden spoons at least every two years. Talk about serious changes needed, mainly from the top.

Wasn't aware they had won. In fact, no team is going to win this match.Anality Returns wrote:Warriors just too good.
Points for this game will be pretty even I think. WA will get the 0.5 bonus for 6 wickets (vs 2), but I think SA had more runs.

Re: Redbacks choke
Don't they give first innings points anymore?
Nevertheless, scoring 461 means little if you're going to concede 600+

The points scoring system is based on the first 100 overs.Bomber wrote:?Slinky_Pete wrote:Wasn't aware they had won. In fact, no team is going to win this match.Anality Returns wrote:Warriors just too good.

WA were 8/611
WA were 2/329 at that point in time. = WA: 1.29 points. SA: 0 points
But it looks like we were only about 6/320 SA: 1.20 points WA: 0.5 points
Shrek didn't start hitting out until the 110th over.

Re: Redbacks choke
Odd that they wouldn't have declared then and try and set the match up more. I still haven't quite worked out this new points system. You think its fair?

It encourages attacking play a bit more, I think.Bomber wrote:Odd that they wouldn't have declared then and try and set the match up more. I still haven't quite worked out this new points system. You think its fair?
Dunno if it helps get results though.

Re: Redbacks choke
Well if this match is any guide, there's more work to be done. That said, if recent form is anything to go by, the redbacks could well get rolled for 90 in the second dig and hand WA some extra points.Slinky_Pete wrote:It encourages attacking play a bit more, I think.Bomber wrote:Odd that they wouldn't have declared then and try and set the match up more.

Re: Redbacks choke
Sounds like it could be a very good ending. I would pop along if it was at its proper home ground.

Jason Gillespie turns down Redbacks job

Yorkshire or South Australia? Pretty fckn simple choice especially with the carrot of the England job still dangling.

He should take the England job. Imagine Boof and Dizzy, a couple South Aussies taking the piss in an Ashes series! Australia MUST win!Stitch This wrote:Jason Gillespie turns down Redbacks job
