Cool

And if the rabbit had not stopped for a **************** because it's OVERCONFIDENCE about winning the race it would have caught the turtle.Games are not won or lost on facts and figures,they come after the event.Sad about McGrarh,but he cannot win the game on his own,and the poms are wary of him now,and just try to play thru his spell with caution.Even though you rightly pointed out Sportz the games have been close,barring the 1st test that is,IMO the poms have always been in control,or had that slight psychological edge.They are sticking it up us big time,and clearly our blokes are not used to it and dont know how to cope with it,especially the top order batsmen.
They have not faced a quality bowling attack like this for a long time,some of the shots they are getting out on are quite radical.Watch their body language on the field,and never forget the old adage"dropped catches lose matches."
Would you ever see Lillee or Thommo or Pascoe smile at a batsman like Lee and co. do?No venom,no fire in the belly,too soft and grossly overpaid.
