  • Curse this English Tour: Our Shane is injured :(

    England went down for their 12th loss out of 12 matches on the tour last night. They have yet to win a game, including in the sub first class matches and fielded a no name team including at least one player from their junior squad

    That was fine - we're getting used to pitiful displays from England - except Shane Warne dislocated his shoulder

    It could be a career ending injury for one of the greatest bowlers of all time

    The nation is in mourning


    Shane Warne was due to undergo surgery in Melbourne to determine the extent of his shoulder injury.

    The leg-spin genius had to be stretchered from the MCG on Sunday night after he dislocated his right bowling shoulder in a fielding accident, during the one-day win over England at the MCG.

    He will be out of action for at least a month, meaning he will definitely miss Australia's last two Ashes Tests.

    The shoulder was re-set soon after the incident, but there are fears Warne could miss the World Cup in South Africa early next year if there are secondary problems arising from the dislocation.

    Warne, 33, needed a reconstruction of the shoulder four years ago.

    Even as an NZer, it would be terrible for cricket if we lost a great bowler in Shane Warne

      Especially in a crap match like that

      So simple the way these things happen.

        It's not even worth playing the Poms. It's only going to screw up players before the world cup.

          Exactly - we should field a no name side for the rest of tour.

          I say bring back Doug Walters

          David Hooks smashed them to all parts in a tour match.

            I bet anyone could beat this **** side. They really do tarnish the reputation of the game...

            And they thought 4 years ago was the low point!

              Great, now we've even picked up a few of England's nasty habits. Like our players injuring themselves.
              I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                Shane could play into his forties if he can hold it together physically, big if

                  Shame about Warne, but I think when it comes to tarnishing the game the aussies selling "information" to bookies takes teh biscuit.

                  Oh and England are better than NZ, yes you did alright in the last series you played against them but, you got lucky
                  Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

                        In test matches? Perhaps...

                        In one dayers? Nah...

                        May I remind everyone NZ bowled India out for 121 this weekend.

                          Er hang on a minute - if Shane retires that would be a loss to world cricket, not just Australia

                              Shane is a real character

                              Ask any cricket nation other than Australia to name an Aussie cricketer, most will say "Shane Warne".
