  • There is no doubt he is a phenomenon. Averages 64, which is second only to the Don. And the most unusual thing about him is the way he bats, which defies modern techniques.

    Here is an interesting bit of trivia for you. He has now scored 6 ashes hundreds in England. No England player has ever scored that many in England.

  • When you take out the first dozen or so tests when he was actually selected as a bowler his average is in the 80 plus area.

  • Who is he?

  • He's definately special. Teams just can't find a way to get him out.

    His technique is not in the cricketing books. Neither was Bradman's though.

  • Watched his whole innings last night/early this morning and his technique and mental fortitude is right outside of the ordinary. Nothing flamboyant about him, just goes on with his business and rarely faiis.

    He came into this season having miseed the first 7 months due to suspension and in a few months became the number 1 scoring batsman in the world of test cricket.  

    FMD, a 7 months handicap given to all test cricketers and he is now starting to blow them all out of the water, and all this after being terribly knocked out in the 2nd test and not playing in the 3rd test.

    FMD. Just wow, wow, wow, wowwwwwwwwww. 

  • The guy is a freak, watching him plkay is not like anything you will see in world sport anywhere, he is a different charachter that's for sure but man is he good.

  • Exactly Snake. I think Smith is the best batsman we've had since Bradman. Bats outside the box. So skilled, yet eccentric and unothodox.

    Didn't expect it when I first saw him play. Looked awkward at first.

    I must admit I was a huge fan of the Great West Indian top 3. Greenidge, Hayne, and Viv.

    Viv Richards is one of my all time favourite batsman. He was the gum-chewing King Of The Jungle. Never even wore a helmet. Oozed confidence, skill and domination. 

  • No idea who he is , but if he wears New Balance he better stay the fuck away from my kids . 

  • Weak lilly livered piece of SHIT! and now we call him a hero.

    No wonder this country is fuct.

    There for his own glory and pay packet.

    Bit like the NRL putting the wife bashers up as the game's heroes.

"Agreed. People need to remember there is no one on the market for 2027 anyways. Signing Junior on $650K when there isnt anyone else to get doesnt mean anything. We dont get bonuses for not using our cap space.
Its laughable that everyone needs to be…"

"HKF - sounds about right. I thought he'd command $650k minimum, considering he is on $900 -$950K for his last year, and a co captain."

"Pops i like these comments, in all honesty i don't know how you price him considering his age, and the fact he is co captain and he is on a very high salary right now.

By all means we are going for Keoan it seems. Only someone like him or the likes of Haas/Tino can really add to our forwards. 
We need a backup at the backs but those can be signed anytime…"

"It's about supply and demand. TDS is young and expected to get better every year, at a key spine position. There was huge demand for him. How many clubs would expect Paulo to still be NRL material at the end of 2026? He is 33 next year."

"mongolian trotting duck These are the type of issues that you cannot put a value on, number of young forwards coming through and junior is the one they will be looking up to. Leadership is not always tangible in a monetary sense.

"Well that was nearly "ballistic" glad it was not me who said that.....
Your right by the way!
Dynasty should look up the pay scales, I don't think there is anything below 125K in the top 30 game, even that maybe higher this year?"
