        "The obscurity of Jones's headbanging manoeuvre caused some confusion for Shane Warne, whom he dismissed first ball on Saturday morning. At first, Warne thought Jones was in some way ridiculing his well-publicised deal with Advanced Hair Studios, the rethatching specialists. He had to check with his Hampshire mate, Kevin Pietersen, who reported back yesterday that no disrespect had been intended."

        Australia may be on the verge of losing an Ashes series for the first time in twenty years, but at least Shane has got his priorities in order.



        Take a look at his lovely hair.

          Actually I was thinking of the English weather ...

          As per usual it'll be the Australian team that'll be hoping it doesn't play a part.
          This time though it could cost them the Ashes.

          Just imagine the excuses and the whinging that'd come out of the Australian dressing room afterwards if it did ...

              • Any news on whether the Oz bowlers will be fit for The Oval? McGrath could tip the balance if he's in form.

                  You said that when you lost to Somerset. Then Bangladesh. Then England. Then England again.
                  You kept saying it and now you're down 2-1 in the Ashes.

                  McGrath seems to be keeping pretty busy jumping on the team bandwagon that blames it all on substitute fielders.

                      Katich, at least, had a case but Ponting?

                      Now if only Englands greatest player shows up for the last test ...
                      To be fair to KAtich he walked, but then when he saw the replay he was not happy, and you can see why. I would be more concerned if he wasn't unhappy.

                      Ponting needs to grow up though.

                        Actually have you noticed that everyone is now talking about that rathe rthna how pisspoor the Australian team is playing? Good psychology if you ask my opinion.

                        • ...because Australias psychological games have worked brilliant so far.

                              Quite honestly I'm surprised that anybody would buy into anything quite so obvious. It almost reeks of desperation. Not something one expects to see too ofen from an Australian cricket side.
                              I'm beginning to wonder whether the Australian cricket Board has hired Alastair Campbell on the quiet.

                                I think theyve always done it, just before theyve always had the results to back it up. It never had any considerable effect on the result though.

                                Of course, when you dont get the results, you look pretty stupid.

                                Its refreshing to see great sportsmen make fools of themselves, im fed up with all the fence sitters.
