                    • LOL...another story with Freddie Truman and this time Australian Opener Bill Lawry on his first tour to England.

                      Lawry facing up against Truman who is playing for his beloved Yorkshire.

                      First 3 balls Truman coming of the back fence beat him all up, each time Bill Lawry said well bowled Mr Truman, showing all the respect of a youngster in his first game against the fast bowling legend.

                      4th Ball cleaned bowled.....Lawry says well bowled Mr Truman.....Truman reply's 

                      "I laddie, shame I had to waste it on you!"

                    • Here's one Poppa which may or not pass muster in our woke society. If thats the case I'll blame you for encouraging me! .Mark Waugh ws at 2nd slip when Kiwi Adam Parore came to the crease and promptly played and missed the 1st ball......Oh I remember you from a couple of years ago in Australia. You were shit then and you're f.....g useless now. Parore (turning around) said- "Yeah thats me, and when I was there you were going out with that old ugly cow. And now I hear you've married her, you dumb c..t"

                    • Rod Marsh to Ian Botham: How's your wife and my kids

                      Botham to Marsh: The wife's fine, the kids are retarded

                    • You're the winner A, thats the best yet!

                    • LOL

                    • Glenn McGrath to Eddo Brandes: Why are you so fat?

                      Eddo: Because every time I shag your wife she gives me a chocolate biscuit.

                    • Mark Waugh to Jimmy Ormond: Look who it is, mate what are you doing here, surely you are not good enough to play for England.

                      Jimmy: That might be the case, but at least i am the best player in my family.

                    • To this day that is the best sledge around.

                • Denis Lillee, Curtly Ambrose, Malcolm Marshall, Wasim Akram, Glenn McGrath.

        • Ooh ahh Glenn McGrath, is my favourite bowler I think. As Mick stated there are heaps of goooduns that were always great to watch. DK was awesome as were the others mentioned. 

          Did like Hoggy as well as Lenny Pascoe.

A lot of really good points here, and love the premise of your blog.
 
So much talk of the 2-2 start, and with this draw, that does look pretty good on the surface.
 
But, we didn’t fight our way to 2-2, we didn’t walk away…"

The more I think about why we don't attract playersis because we are too honest.
