  • Field Theory: That's Super,

    It was some uncoordinated variant of rugby from the bits I saw Kyle.

    It seemed to have quite a bit of basketball thrown in.

  • Field Theory: That's Super,

    Did anyone actually manage to watch all of that inept fumblethon that was the Hurricanes match?

  • Field Theory: Cricketucation,

    There will never be a better system than Duckworth-Lewis. And, contrary to what some commentators may have you believe, it does not actually cause the rain delay. It’s the other way around.

    But getting 7th formers to explain it would be a worthwhile subject.

    HG,

    I share your hatred for Roman Numerals.

    Only surpassed by my dislike of organisations who use Roman Numerals in their marketing in a shabby attempt to create the illusion of respectability.

    Oh, and don’t be shy in reaching for the phone and plastic for the fire appeal during tonight’s match. It’s the least we can do for them.

    Just remember, none of the money goes to Haddin.

    HG, you haven’t been watching.

    It’s not the Super 14, it’s the Super XIV.

    And if that’s not pompous, I’m not sure what is.

    The references by the Ch9 commentary team the other night to “I beat the Kiwis are enjoying the sun on their backs after all the rain they’ve had recently” were quite funny.

    Until about the 10th time.

  • OnPoint: Don’t let them eat cake,

    One solution on how to punish the Boy Racers / hoons would be to imprison them for a night inside the forthcoming Coldplay concert.

    I can’t see Haddin Gate (I prefer the term “Hand of Dog”) coming back to bite us. Well, not compared to our lack of a decent top order for example.

    And given that it’s had a hand in the ACB “resting” Ponting it should work in our favour.

    Agreed that we are starved of test cricket, although we did play 14 of them in 2008.

    Don’t agree that Mills is an ODI specialist though. He’s got the range of skills to be a decent test player, and that includes his batting.

    I mean if Iain O’Brien can become a decent test player over the last 12 months…
