Warner needs to shut his trap, seen him on the news sprouting off about what they'll do to the Sth Africans.

Yup, he should let his bat talk rather than his mouth...

Thanks for the link Jimmy. I'm overseas and looks like I missed a good innings. Go lads!

I thought he would have learnt by now.

SA 3/23 chasing our 397... Johnson is on fire - 3/5 off 3.3 overs... And Harris is just plugging away at the other end keeping it fairly tight!

Bl00dy beauty. Glad Mitch has continued that good test form. He has grown the Mo back though. Looks like his wife will have to get used to it. Well it is for the good of the country

Johnson has another 5 for...

Make that 7 and South Africans all out for 206 chasing 397.

Aussies to bat again, pile on 325, then send them in with 1 3/4 days to go.

Good stuff, I hope they can continue this for the series.

achjimmy · « **Reply #535 on:** February 15, 2014, 08:45:21 AM »

See warner fired, but dropped three times, bloody lucky. Be interesting with the new boys firing might not be room for Wato next test.

Saw Warner on the news this morning. He was running off at the mouth again describing the South Africans fielding as being equivilant of backyard cricket. It was very funny but he's gotta make sure he keeps making runs on this tour.

Let's hope Watson never returns to the team, we don't need that cancer undermining the harmony of the team any further.

It was a joke and a funny one. I like his cocky Aussie laracism.....:-)

He wasn't far from the truth eith. SA fielding was woeful.

DropBearRacing · « **Reply #539 on:** February 15, 2014, 10:29:31 AM »

I agree with you teabag. Warner is a good cricketer and is great for the Aussie team. He brings that larikin attitude back into the team that we haven't seen since the days of Boonie, Big Merv etc. we need that. Not only that he's got a hell of a lot of mongral in him and hates everyone he plays against. Take for example the fight he had in the pub in England in 2012. He was standing up for his team mate and was prepared to do something about it. We need that type of attitude in the team. We showed it in the last ashes series. The Aussie bowlers led by Mitch Johnson were aggressive and wanted to hurt the poms with every ball. The Aussie team needs the Warner's and Johnson's to fire them up and intimidate the opposition.

I thought it was that he took exception to something Joe Root said about H. Amla being a muslim???
"Sources indicate Warner lost his temper, believing Root was impersonating and ridiculing Hashim Amla, the South African Muslim batsman who has a large beard."
When he's good, he's brilliant, but i find it interesting that the poms will get rid of Pietersen for getting out with rash shots, but Warner is guilty of that to often as well.
I like an Aussie larrikin, but he needs to consistently talk with his bat before i'll rate him.

Poms are getting rid of Peiterson cause there idiots and the establishment can't bring itself to blame one of there own upperclass boys in Cook. That's there failing, if I was Pieterson I would play for Sth Africa next tour of UK for free and murder them with the bat.

I stand corrected Moggy.
I still like his attitude, I just hope his batting can keep up with his mouth.

One up in the series, great start.

Pog · « **Reply #545 on:** February 16, 2014, 06:39:48 AM »

Aussies win by 281 runs with a day to spare... This was a absolute flogging of the South Africans.

Mitch was awesome with 12 wickets, Marsh, Doolan, Smith and Warner good with the bat. Harris, Siddle and Lyon all good with the ball to support Johnson.

D4D · « **Reply #546 on:** February 16, 2014, 06:42:46 AM »

Very good team effort, SA will come back hard in the next test.

lino6 · « **Reply #547 on:** February 16, 2014, 08:18:37 AM »

Yeah I reckon SA have a bit more ticker than the poms I'd expect them to come out swinging in the next. And probably bat first!

Sent from somewhere on something with that tap thing

Agree with you X 100.
They are a good team the SA and want revenge for the recent ashes loss

Clarke must get some runs soon or he will be dropped,,,,,,,
