    This one good too - warning some commentary could be construed as racist.

      It was funny though. Great send up.

        Yay, bogans!

        I was friends with a lot of the NZ bogan tribe when I lived there - I even owned an old modded Holden Torana S for a while...

            I understand some of the words in this thread
            To us, it is the BEAST.

                Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

                  Sava should check out those fake commentaries before some mod sees them.

                  Sadly they sound just like me and my old school mates talking in the crowd...

                    I can't see England winning this series. They might be coming in off the back of decent results against WI and NZ, but here are the problems-

                    1- They're green. Only two players are over 30, and only just over 30 at that. While that's a pretty good thing in the long run, they look like a team in transition right now. By comparison, Australia could be called "a trifle ancient", but they're a team of battle hardened warriors. In three years time England could be contenders, but not now.

                    2- Take a look at the openers, the middle order, the pace bowlers and the spinners. Australia will have the edge in every category, unless the atmospheric conditions favour swing- in which case Anderson will start blazing. However the fact that Finn is still in the squad highlights just how thin the talent is stretched. For the spinners Moeen Ali has performed better than I could every have imagined, but he's still not in Lyon's league.

                    3- Australia's batting is so far ahead that it's kind of funny. Smith's average is pushing 53, Warner is going to be out to punish, and the England survivors of the last Ashes are probably still having nightmares about Haddin. For England, Root and Stokes have done really well, but Cook's not confirmed as being back in form, Broad's batting has been a disaster due to psychological issues following his accident last year, and both Ballance and Bell have been crap recently.

                    4- Kevin ****ing Pietersen will spend the entire tour *****ing and whining, and general unsettling the actual England squad.

                          Pity Pieterson isn't playing. The player we love to hate.

                              I disagree. Nobody likes a Bogan.

                                Monty Panesar has been declared unavailable to to off-field alcohol addiction which they're describing as "issues".

                                Essex head coach Paul Grayson says spinner Monty Panesar is unavailable for selection because of off-field "issues".
