  1. Make that 7 with the first ball after lunch. It's hard to even be angry any more, it's just embarrassing that a test nation can't even bat properly in their own country. Can you imagine India struggling to make 100 at home?
  2. Am I really over-thinking things if I think that the Seattle Dragons is a nod to Daniel Bryan?
  3. I don't know what a Battlehawk is but I imagine it wouldn't be suitable for a standard aviary.
  4. As always with these sort of failed negotiations, the fallout from it is that nobody wins. I do feel sorry for Tom Holland though who I thought was doing a very good job.
  5. It's one of those scary things where you can see the effects of a concussion, whilst it was very brave of him to come back out yesterday you can look at almost half the shots he played as being ones that Smith would never play, the one that got him out being the prime example. You can look at it and just see that something was obviously not functioning right. In the end it was almost England's game, Roy's drop may have been the big moment but I think Australia would have held out anyway. Jofra Archer is going to be frighteningly good, although he already is. Also, Marnus Labuschagne is a fantastic name.
  6. As I am not employed by a football club and nobody has any interest in signing me (or at least paying the amount I want), I too would like to announce my retirement from football.
  7. I've been to or worked at hundreds of cricket games and never seen anything particularly special, other than an England/Australia ODI at Bristol in 2005 where Collingwood took an incredible catch and Pietersen won us the game with 3 wickets remaining. His last six went right over my head yet somehow the Sky camera missed me . Here's the catch:
  8. More of the same today. 5-0 doesn't seem too far-fetched any more.
  9. I got on a Hitman kick and started playing the first reboot again, then bought Hitman 2 and found I could have just played updated versions of the first game's levels in the second game. Still really enjoying it though.
  10. I feel a bit sorry for Gasly, being compared to a team-mate like Max is an impossible situation. I hope Albon doesn't suffer the same fate.
  11. Getting Dybala would be incredible. He's been my favourite player in Italy since his Palermo days. No idea what's happening with Eriksen but if we somehow end up keeping him too...
  12. It's certainly a main reason, and can be applied to how Australia were 122-8 and got to 284. The other reason, unfortunately, is Steve Smith being the best test batsman of this generation.
  13. Barely on topic, but DJ Cooper, who has played in various European teams and was hoping to qualify to represent Bosnia, has been suspended after his most recent drug test came back with the news that he was pregnant. Here's the story if you are fluent in Slovenian.
  14. The Australians are in a hilarious position. Steve Smith is obviously captaining the side in everything but name, because Cricket Australia's punishment was that he would never be allowed to be captain again after his ban ended. Tim Paine is just doing nothing except standing next to Smith whilst he sets all the fields and decides the bowling options. Meanwhile, Tim Paine isn't scoring any runs and isn't even the best wicket-keeper in the side, however they can't drop him because they need him to go out and flip a coin before every match and pretend that he's in charge. Even if he "drops himself" there's nobody obvious to take over the captaincy unless they go left-field with someone like Siddle or Lyon. And all the while Smith goes along, scoring runs and making all the decisions of a captain, as if he never got a punishment in the first place...
  15. It was going so well. You'd think they'd watch Smith's innings and realise they need to play carefully, so I'm predicting they don't and we're 158 all out.
  16. That's a nice screenshot of WWE 2K14 15 16 17 18 19 20.
  17. I'm stunned he would want to leave Juve, and even more stunned for him to leave Juve to go to Everton.
  18. I mean, Art Modell said he'd never move the team, so I'm sure we can all trust this Browns owner to never change the helmets.
  19. Super Mario Odyssey seems obvious but it's one of my favourite games of all time. Other than it really depends on what type of games you enjoy playing, the Switch has something for most genres. Mainly Mario related.
  20. A lot of people are saying Pascal Wehrlein is going to take Grosjean's seat after the summer break. And of course Gasly's Red Bull seat could easily go to either of the Toro Rosso drivers with Gasly going the other way. He looked so impressive last year but just hasn''t been able to cut it at the front of the grid.
  21. Just to add some more fireworks to proceedings, this is the race that Mercedes chose for their one race coverage in the Netflix series.
  22. There are a lot of fans who hate wet races because it doesn't promote proper racing, and even commentators often say "there's a chance of rain, but I hope it doesn't". They can be quiet.
  23. Pointless a stat as it is, 6 of the top 7 are former or current Toro Rosso drivers.
