I have to admit I haven't bothered with Bracken's video blogs as I really don't care that much for him.<br /><br />CATV ran out of ideas when they decided to give him that gig and then he ran out of ideas by about vid 3 because he was on facebook asking us all on the CA page what we want to see in his vids! Nathe, hun, you're not meant to run out of ideas until you have done at least 12 vids...<br /><br />And speaking of Nathes - I thought Hauritz's one video blog was good. Jokes about the old farts on the last Ashes tour not knowing how to even turn on a Playstation was a gem (as was Mitchy almost blowing up the bus because he doesn't know how to use a microwave).<br /><br />P.S. Ponting is not the best fielder in the world. And I'm an Australian. I could get lynched for that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294436113842444659.post-7762651301059275292009-09-23T04:18:33.414-04:002009-09-23T04:18:33.414-04:00I've got a feeling he's been around for yo...I've got a feeling he's been around for yonks... like the Steve Waugh days. I may be making that up. I can't be bothered Googling, so he has now officially been around that long. <br /><br />In defence of the American (assuming he has been around that long) I think he's been pretty instrumental in improving the Australian fielding standards, which, if not now, a few years back was the world standard. I think we're still ok at fielding. It's probably the one area we haven't totally forgotten how to do...<br /><br />But yeah, his accent is annoying.richie_141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294436113842444659.post-83951638072640257772009-09-23T02:56:41.138-04:002009-09-23T02:56:41.138-04:00Hen racing.

TG, he i...Oh the joys of pissing off a Punter fan!<br /><br />TG, he is not the best fielder in the world anymore. He might have been once upon a time. To be the best fielder you have to be involved in the game throughout, make your presence felt so that the batsmen know you are around and fear you. Something that Gibbs still does and Rhodes did till he retired. Ponting is one of the rare 'complete' fielder as you put it, but calling him the best at the moment is a little too much. Of course his age and the pressure of captaincy has a lot to do with it. I'm not going to deny that.<br />I am always happy to spread laughter in this world :P.<br /><br />Es, when was he appointed? I'm guessing around the time Australia started sucking? Oh these Americans. They think their opinions on world views matter. We Canadians always enjoy taking the piss out of them. I'm glad the Aussies feel the same!Purnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07406042181818223918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294436113842444659.post-76887055577236239232009-09-22T20:31:49.001-04:002009-09-22T20:31:49.001-04:00The American is an embarassment to Aussie cricket....The American is an embarassment to Aussie cricket. He was a baseball coach who has apparently improved our fielding. <br /><br />Amy & I had a conversation about him one night after hearing him discuss Anzac day with the commentators during an IPL match.

Mate you drunk when you wrote this ? You mentioned Rhodes, and Gibbs - pray how often have they hit the stumps ????<br /><br />Rhodes himself has gone on record stating that Ponting is better than him, simply for the very fact you say he doesn't do often !! Sure, conveniently ignore that the bloke is on the other side of 30. Care to take the same comment back a few years ??? You might be in for a rude suprise !<br /><br />Added to it , Ponting has been the most complete fielder in the last decade and more. The bloke can field in the slips, pretty much anywhere in the inner circle and when he was younger he used to man the boundaries as well.<br /><br />On second thoughts, thanks for this absurd post.
