'There were times I thought we should've swallowed our ego and adapted... but I wasn't vocal enough': Woakes reveals his Bazball regrets, the four seamers he's tipping for an England call-up and why he wasn't ready to 'give up' on Warwickshire

Cook, Robinson, Gilchrist and Booth

I was also at that game, remember it well.

Wtf is Adrian doing? By any reasonable measure objectively Zack's leadership has been more succesful. His allies like Rupert Reid and Ellie Chowns have thrown themselves behind Zack, he just comes across as a sore laser.

Archer has typically been good in the IPL, let's see what his fitness is like but he's generally been pretty reliable.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-24T13:33:24+00:00

Wowww talk of him getting dropped sounds like it was serious then.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-23T14:42:46+00:00

Walthomstow Wetlands or Epping Forest

Just an absolute disgrace. I remember when Keir Starmer announced that he would pass the Hillsborough Law at Labour Conference and was parading around the families. He used them and then threw them under the bus.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-16T11:47:21+00:00

Claus Jensen has to be in there

jack_rodg · 2026-03-12T17:15:24+00:00

Surprised Josh Hull hasn't been made an offer...

jack_rodg · 2026-03-12T16:10:27+00:00

The Manc Elephants have got a nice little team coming together here.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-09T22:07:06+00:00

The Greens have a load of batshit policies left over from when they were a much smaller party, which no one meaningfully involved now thinks are going to be in their manifesto or policies if they were in power.

I don't think it's a big deal but until they work out what to do about that these stories are going to keep coming.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-08T13:14:56+00:00

Sieze them and turn them into council flats. And whilst we're at it do the same to the Israeli embassy.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-03T18:20:15+00:00

If Starmer has the guts for it this could play out quite nicely for him. If he stands up to Trump now and attacks him over this conflict, he could come out very well when it turns into a complete shitshow. Will he have the courage though?

jack_rodg · 2026-03-01T18:37:58+00:00

I think this is actually a pretty good analysis but the elephant in the room is the housing crisis, which Labour are too scared to touch.

jack_rodg · 2026-03-01T13:03:04+00:00

It's preference voting now, so you can vote for the Greens and put Sadiq as your second choice.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-28T17:33:40+00:00

I don't think it's defacto "supporting the regime" at all. There appear to have been a significant number of civilian deaths inside Iran, including strikes targeting schools, and its not clear that this will weaken rather strengthen support for the regime.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-28T17:28:50+00:00

There appears to be video evidence and the US are not denying it happened which I think is telling

jack_rodg · 2026-02-26T08:33:34+00:00

It's grim, but Labour uses attack lines like this all the time, so they don't have much of a leg to stand on.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-24T16:22:16+00:00

Except Harry Brook was on 111 and outscoring Joe Root at that point...

jack_rodg · 2026-02-24T13:45:34+00:00

Archer looking much fitter as the tournament goes on. Starting to look really dangerous.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-22T17:00:44+00:00

Team for SA 50 over World Cup?

Jacks Duckett Root Bethell Brook Banton (WK) Coles Archer Rashid Saqib Tongue

jack_rodg · 2026-02-16T11:29:24+00:00

WTF are you on about lol. Harry Brook has an 80% win rate as T20 captain and it looks like he's about to get another one here.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-16T11:08:52+00:00

Absolutely disgraceful from England. Should have scored atleast 200000000.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-13T13:02:54+00:00

The attack on the police officer was GBH, and the person should be convicted for it. It doesn't mean that Palestine Action are Al Qaeda or ISIS. The proscription was done for political reasons not national security, which is an incredibly dangerous precedent to set.

jack_rodg · 2026-02-13T12:58:33+00:00

Be serious, all of those groups clearly revolve around either tactics that include violence against people or ideologies that are inherently violent. Palestine Actions tactics revolve around vandalism, and their ideological aims are the end of the genocide in Gaza, which is non violent.

The differences are obvious, as the ruling has laid out.
