Where does coach Tim Nielsen stand amidst the current demise of AUstralian cricket?. Has anyone seen a photo of him, a comment, anything..? The role of a coach at this level has always been debatable, but at least is predecessor John Buchanan had a presence, and a great analytical mind. While it may be unfair to compare, the team’s tactics were never questioned much less controversy of over rates, etc. Buchanan also made timely comments which took attention away from the team and in particular the captain, in testing times. Ricky Ponting has been left ‘on a rock’ to answer everything from tactics to the latest episode of the ‘Andrew Symonds diary’. Any wonder he has to be ‘rested’, I doubt that is a result of being overworked on the field. Australia don’t seem to get anything right, from team selections, to the batting power play to runouts to overthrows. If a coach doesn’t have a role to play on these matters, then surely the money could be put to better use.
Struggling Ponting wants his mates, not a process or plan
I can;t believe so many people live life in a bubble. What evidence is there that banning advertising automatically reduces alcohol consumption? The banning of cigarette advertising sure had the desired effect! Not. Has anyone been in a schoolyard at recess lately?
I say get as much money out of the companies as possible to keep sporting competitions like the NRL going and promoting active lifestyles to get kids away from the computer games. If alcohol advertising is causing so much trouble one shudders what these violent games are doing to young minds.
If everyone rushes out and buys something they see advertised, then why hasn’t anyone bought the bridge I have for sale?
Ban alcohol advertising in rugby league first
