The greatest over punishment of all time… it was the equivalent of one player being over paid, just ridiculous!
And the memory of phil rothfield presenting bellamy with an over sized wooden spoon…
Did the NRL overreact to the 2010 Melbourne Storm salary cap scandal?
This is the bloke who posted the story about liesel jones being overweight in a lead up to an olympics, without any research.
Paul Kent's domestic violence charges are far more serious than just a 'rugby league soap opera'
One female is killed per week by someone known to them… 25 this year so far… ffs

Actually that ashes series was the end of him… the summer before he was International player of the year, and in the first 3 tests of the ashes summer he also bowled very well. But his career effectively ended in melb when Tavere and Lamb got after him. They had worked out how to play him and so ended his career.
Tom Hogan was an enigma
Is he there to teach them to over celebrate every wicket
Say it ain't so - Poms poach Mr Cricket: Hussey to plot Australia's downfall
Great article…I was one of those who criticised bright…he was so boring as a bowler. Same style as underwood but with less ability. The number of tours he made was amazing…I never realised that.
I think that 85 tour of nz saw possibly the worst bowling line up ever in the history of cricket…Gilbert, Davis, odonnell and bright

'I was happy beside the bulls--- politics': Langer lashes CA over messy exit
Like it all…but I would move the Sydney test to before Christmas….it is always a wash out anyway…. Then all players are available after the new year.
My five solutions to save the Big Bash League
In 2005 Peterson had just finished bowling an over to Warne. As they met mid-pitch Warne was telling Peterson how pathetic he was as an off-spinner. Just then Ashley Giles walked by and Warne said ” but you are still the best offie in this team”
'Utterly heartbreaking'; 'Can't quite believe it': Tributes flow for Shane Warne, 'the man who made spin cool'
I love cricket but i have never heard of Muirhead nor Forrest…. does that say something about the ‘no value’ of T20?

What bowler gives a send off after getting a wicket with that pie?
'Lucky f--k': Marcus Stoinis gives bowler a piece of his mind after being dismissed
Great article…you are always entertaining…my memory is of fredericks scoring a hundred befoe lunch onnthe first day of the test…am i wrong?
A Test team of my childhood heroes: Part 1
Steve waugh never made a run until they brought in the two short balls per over rule…im not sure his brother was much braver…its also worth mentioning the bats used in the 80’s weree nowhere near as good as 2000…hayden was not that good that he averaged more than greenidge
Clash of the greats: The 1984 West Indians versus the 2001 Aussies
Steve waugh made a huge mistake in the first test of that summer. He declared around lunchtime on the 5th day in a march bound for a draw. He allowed dravid and ganguly to find form on a flat deck and we paid the price for the next 18 months

did dyson get one too?…or was it a testmatch ton?
Memorable ODI innings by Aussie batsmen in the 1980s
Possibly the worst sports casting decision ever was made that night. In the lead up to the race Tania Gregorieva was a real chance to win the pole vault and the usa ‘dream team’ was trailing against france. Did channel 7 at any stage cross to theses sports? or even have a small window open at the bottom of the screen? no, we had bruce mcavaney gushing like a lovesick child for an hour… that is my memory of the night.
The night Cathy Freeman won gold
great points Paul, am i also correct in saying he was not in bob simpson’s list of favourite players?
The batting breakthroughs that weren't
Wayne Phillips scored on of the all time geat hundreds in the west indies in 1984…i think he had a reasonable career between 83-85
The batting breakthroughs that weren't
what a great article, very very entertaining… i had forgotten about Nadir…what a story, why was he dropped? should he have turned a triple into a quadtriple?
The batting breakthroughs that weren't
Best article and best comment ever posted on The Roar.
Tom Curran’s umpire act is worse than it appears - and the game cannot tolerate it
