achilles Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Michael Clarke will join Australia's Test squad in New Zealand on Monday after ending his personal leave to deal with the breakdown of his two-year engagement. Clarke has confirmed his departure with Cricket Australia and a spokesman told Cricinfo he would fly from Sydney on Monday morning with the five-day specialists. Clarke, the vice-captain, has been at home since leaving the one-day squad early last week and will be pleased to exit the intense local spotlight. Ricky Ponting is looking forward to getting his deputy back and Michael Hussey has said any sledging of Clarke's personal situation by the New Zealanders would be "going a little bit too far". "I don't know, we'll have to wait and see really," Hussey told reporters in Wellington. "He's such a mentally tough person. He'll be fine. It's important we don't get caught up in that by-play." Phillip Hughes, Steven Smith, Simon Katich and Marcus North will fly to Wellington with Clarke, who finalised his travel plans with Michael Brown, Cricket Australia's deputy, over the weekend. Ponting is confident Clarke will not have any problems readjusting to life in the Test side and he is a definite starter at the Basin Reserve on Friday. "He'll get himself prepared for the first Test," Ponting said after losing the final match of the one-day series. "It's obviously been a tough time for him the last few days at home. "All the guys here have given as much support as possible and he was given as much time as he needed to get everything sorted at home. He'll come back for us as the vice-captain and an experienced player in the Test side." From - Cricinfo Of course you tool. Asking a player what his captain's d**k tastes like isn't "crossing the line, is it"? And what about your players asking about people's wives and sisters? :punter: :finger:
Serani Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I dont think the NZ players are the kind to stand up to the aussies when it comes to sledging.
achilles Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 I think no one can stand up to the Aussie sledging except for some Indians, some Saffers, some Windies and some Poms.
EnterTheVoid Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Asking a player what his captain's d**k tastes like isn't "crossing the line' date=' is it"?[/quote'] What do you know about what happened before, during and after.
Serani Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 What do you know about what happened before' date=' during and after.[/quote'] Sars beating Mcgrath all over the park and Mcgrath got a lil stroppy? Isnt that what happened before, unless there has been other incidents like this.
achilles Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 What do you know about what happened before' date=' during and after.[/quote'] No one can defend the indefensible. :hatsoff: Sars beating Mcgrath all over the park and Mcgrath got a lil stroppy? Isnt that what happened before' date=' unless there has been other incidents like this.[/quote'] And McGrath crying like a baby after Sarwan hit back in style. :mama: :hehe: Its really funny that Aussies find what Sarwan said "disrespectful" when they think Glenn McGrath was "not disrespectful" in asking him what Lara's d**k tastes like. :finger:
EnterTheVoid Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Sars beating Mcgrath all over the park and Mcgrath got a lil stroppy I agree, making fun of someone suffering from breast cancer is fair game :two_thumbs_up: What a class act you are. You sicken me.
Sachinism Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I agree, making fun of someone suffering from breast cancer is fair game :two_thumbs_up: What a class act you are. You sicken me. Don't dish it out if you can't take it back Simple The Aussies are a whiny bunch of pu$$ies, as soon as someone responds they go crying to the umpire.
Serani Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I agree, making fun of someone suffering from breast cancer is fair game :two_thumbs_up: What a class act you are. That was not before, that was Sars response, and your telling me a 22 year old kid knew what Mcgraths wife was going through, even if he did its still a fair response after mcgrath tried to bully him.
EnterTheVoid Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Don't dish it out if you can't take it back The Aussies are a whiny bunch of pu$, as soon as someone responds they go crying to the umpire. You see nothing wrong in picking on his wife when she was suffering from breast cancer ? Oh well.
Serani Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 You see nothing wrong in picking on his wife when she was suffering from breast cancer ? Oh well. its really not picking on his wife, "ask your wife" is hardly saying saying a bad thing, Cricket is a big mans game.
The Outsider Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I think spouses of all people afflicted by cancer should go around random people how others' dicks taste like. What a wonderful place this world would be then!
Sachinism Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 You see nothing wrong in picking on his wife when she was suffering from breast cancer ? Oh well. He didn't even mention anything about the cancer. McGrath thought he was smart asking Sarwan what he did, but Sarwan was even better in his comeback. Talking about players wives and mothers has been going on since forever and I'm sure McGrath has come across it in the past. McGrath couldn't accept he got put in his place
achilles Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 You see nothing wrong in picking on his wife when she was suffering from breast cancer ? Oh well. 1. McGrath had no business asking Sarwan what Lara's dick tastes like. Amazing you don't find it disrespectful :clap: 2. Sarwan was well within his right to hit back coz asking something like that is humiliating to most players. 3. McGrath had no reason being a beach after pretty much calling for Sarwan to take him to task. 4. Most Important point - Had McGrath NOT run his dirty mouth, he wouldn't have heard what he did from Sarwan. :finger::finger::finger::finger::finger::finger: Aussies are known whiners. They think they can say whatever the hell they like and get away with it. But the moment someone hits back, they start crying like there's no tomorrow. :mama::mama::mama::mama: Idiots :mama:
Serani Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 If this was so bad then how come Mcgrath didnt get so mad when he asked Eddo Brandes why he was so fat, his reply involved Mcgraths wife, surely he should have got equally as angry. It just so happens his ass was getting beaten all around the ground so he made a big issue over it.
graphic23 Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Forgetting that incident with McGrath for a moment, [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrEbYhwBb50]YouTube- Michael Slater Sledging Rahul Dravid Australia Vs India[/ame] Aussie sportsmanship
achilles Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 If this was so bad then how come Mcgrath didnt get so mad when he asked Eddo Brandes why he was so fat' date=' his reply involved Mcgraths wife, surely he should have got equally as angry. It just so happens his ass was getting beaten all around the ground so he made a big issue over it.[/quote'] I think he didn't expect a West Indian to respond with a smart sledge. Windians usually get worked up and McGrath thought he would get Sarwan all angry, so much so that he would throw his wicket away. Unfortunately, Sarwan hit back and EPICLY pwned Glenn. And the moment he heard it, Glenn knew that, just like always, he had been pwned forever :hysterical:
achilles Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 Forgetting that incident with McGrath for a moment, YouTube- Michael Slater Sledging Rahul Dravid Australia Vs India Aussie sportsmanship Yeah. What a rascal. During the match, Slater demanded a 3rd Umpire replay when he was batting refusing to take the Indian keeper's word that he was out. When his turn came to abide by the same rule during fielding, he got all pissed with Dravid for not trusting his word. What a loser :finger: Friggin hypocrite. Even the Aussies blasted him in their media and the fan pressure forced the CA to drop him I guess :finger:
Serani Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 The whole Sarwan Mcgrath episode seems to have gone from youtube.
EnterTheVoid Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 The one reply worth responding to. He didn't even mention anything about the cancer. McGrath thought he was smart asking Sarwan what he did' date=' but Sarwan was even better in his comeback. Talking about players wives and mothers has been going on since forever and I'm sure McGrath has come across it in the past. McGrath couldn't accept he got put in his place[/quote'] All right, what happened happened. But if you are asking me to explain what is wrong with picking on player's wifes / girl friends at times at like, than, I see no point in continuing on. Count me out. I wan't no further part in this.
