Jeez, I thought I better put a thread up, slackarses.

Also, gg rain.

Australia will win.

If only to make the nay-sayers calling the end of Aust Cricket at the top level (due to retirements), shut the hell up! :D

Where's Tung?

yer, we'll kill 'em

hope chucka get's no-balled outta the country

:(
poor chucka
i always feel sorry for him, coz hes just bowling

but man, me and my indian buddy at work were watching some super slomo footage

thats some serious bending going on right there with that bowling action;

Whats the best coverage for the TV impaired. I've got cricinfo opened...?

ABC do live streaming of their radio...although I believe that got changed to a paid subscription thing via the Cricket Australia web site (which also offer streaming ch9 feeds).

I've got the US-based ch9 stream running here right now..

So is this on today channel 9 says it isn't on.

LULZ, 1 over and they're back inside.

So is this on today channel 9 says it isn't on.

Hmmm, unless ch9 believe that the Gold Coast is close enough to Brisbane to black out coverage.

Oh yeah I forgot about that.

f***.

edit: NBN ftw

rain ftl

I miss Warnie already :(

612 abc radio for stream. free.

yay for Jacques.

100 for jacques, go you french bastard!!!!

Wish you could hook up to other feeds of the same channel through digital or something that would be sweet. Like channel 9 melbourne or whatever to get the coverage.

gg

haha tung's team sucks!

where is tounge?

too good for us now that his is married and s*** ?

Certainly too good for the Sri Lankan 'cricket' team.

lol another wicket down!

lolz local abc call is soo much fun to listen to.

kerry o'keeff is the MAN!

also lol another wicket

the bandwago certainly fell apart.

In the first 3 days of this match I doubt we matched the attendance from Day 1 last year....

disgraceful effort from brisbane 'cricket fans'

Way to throw the Aussies in to bat on the 1st day Sri Lanka... that seems to have worked out well so far.

gabba test is always too early in the season, i'm not into cricket enough at this point in the summer to get the motivation to go along.

I'm sitting on the other side of the world watching it until all hours...

that's dedication!

T minus 20mins before it starts (at 12am here)

gabba test is always too early in the season, i'm not into cricket enough at this point in the summer to get the motivation to go along.

I'd argue it should be the opposite, the people have been starved of cricket for months so they should be jumping back on board.

The truth probably lies everywhere on the spectrum between for different people.

f*** i love the abc commentary, seriously i'm not going to watch channel 9 all this season, heals and tubs are so f***ing annoying.

the bandwago certainly fell apart.

That's because at the beginning of last season England were theoretically going to be a hard team to beat.

Sri Lanka will never be able to being in big crowds.

i bet they get crowds to the ODI's for all the wannabe fans

You really have this issue with this 'wannabe fan' thing don't you?

You do realise there are some people who just choose with to be casual fans of sport right?

ZING

first wicket gone

Stuart Clarke :D

no fpot. if people want to watch cricket of any kind they have to be fans of all kinds. not only that. they have to watch every game on air no matter who is playing.

learn to be a fanboi already and stop being a bandwagon cricket fan!

f***ing rain!

2 wickets in the morning session

rain stoppage again.

ffs brisbane fix your weather already.

wicket to lee

bing-a-ling.

Only one more.

yeah, only rain can save them now.

gameover

Your cricket team f***ing sucks tung.

Tung sucks, so it stands to reason his cricket team would suck too.

Spotted: Tung
Aimlessly wandering the streets of Toowong as I drove past on Sunday. Understandable given what was transpiring at the Gabba.

Disclaimer: I drove past reasonably quickly so I don't know that he was really either aimless or wandering, but it makes for a good story.
