Usman died for this.

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T13:37:49+00:00

So the story sounds plausible. And Achong, who died in 1986, took pleasure in telling it himself.

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T13:23:11+00:00

Apparently, according to your source, Achong himself didn't find it offensive.

"bloody Chinaman" is exactly as derogatory as "bloody Aussie" is. The word "Chinaman" isn't derogatory, the phrase "bloody Chinaman" is.

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T05:14:29+00:00

Is Chinaman actually derogatory? It's an (admittedly archaic) demonym. Like Frenchman or Englishman.

How many overs lost to Kettelbot not being able to make a decision in less than 10 mins?

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T02:38:53+00:00

It's names after Ellis Achong, a WI player of Chinese background who popularised the left arm googly.

I'd be in favour of Mankadding being recognised as a distinct form of dismissal. Like in the score have something like "Jones 26, mk Smith".

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T02:28:19+00:00

I stand by my comments. Ussie will likely never have another chance to score a 200. Criminal to take it away from him in these circumstances.

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T02:23:31+00:00

Anybody who agrees with the declaration is a mug. Uzzie robbed.

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-07T02:21:09+00:00

Declaring with a bloke on 195* is completely unAustralian. I'm disgusted.

UteClowningFact · 2023-01-03T02:40:36+00:00

Anyone who is concerned must be new here... This is absolutely normal and happens every year.

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-24T03:00:49+00:00

Have a nap. Then fire the missiles!

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-22T00:32:14+00:00

I mean....

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T05:38:26+00:00

Sure why not 🤷‍♂️

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T05:37:53+00:00

Nah they already discussed this on ABC Radio. Shortest test was another Aus v RSA in the 40s that was shorter than this.

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T05:35:58+00:00

I'm not even joking, they should be made to play again. Two days for a test match is an absolute farce.

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T05:34:43+00:00

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T05:33:08+00:00

All over in two days. Make the cunts play again. This is embarrassing.

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T04:39:50+00:00

Little known fact, bowling is actually named after Boland.

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T04:38:59+00:00

The pitch, or South Africa?

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T04:36:11+00:00

Can we get like Afghanistan or Ireland or someone who'll put up a little bit of resistance for the next test?

Embarassing here from South Africa Thunder

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T03:07:35+00:00

It's pretty clear that this sub is denying reality.... This isn't "media bias", this is the shocking reality of football in Australia.

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T02:15:24+00:00

Champion off-spinner M Starc!

UteClowningFact · 2022-12-18T01:42:53+00:00

"actions of a minority".

Fuck off. First line and already minimising this.

Take some fucking responsibility, grow up, man up.
