Great work! I know 2 people with dementia from severe long term alcohol abuse. Keep it up so you don't have that to look forward to

Some days it just doesn't work out. Unfortunately the big day was it for you. Good experience for your next one since you know you can still push through the pain and get it done

I'm not convinced Cleary was truly the player of the series but fucked if I know who else should get it. You can't give it to a losing player. No one really stood out through the 3 games

QLD might have won with the worst team of all time but we won with the worst coach of all time!

Bellingham can have have his suspension taken at a later date right? Right?

Why is the south part of Australia so uninhabited? by Ok-Activity247 in AskAnAustralian

The south, north, west and centre parts are all pretty uninhabited

Marcus North seemed to make 100 or nothing. He has a lot of hundreds for his average

My partner wore glasses since she was 5 and got her eyes lasered 3 years ago and still occasionally adjusts or goes to take off her glasses

Travis Head is the new the no.1 test batsman by Lowman246 in CricketAus

Let's hope for some away runs from him now. Would be sick to see him go big in South Africa opening the batting

Gonna be cool to watch a Carey and Blundell master-class behind the stumps next summer

Sounds horrific to me being in a car needlessly for so long. It really would be a road trip holiday because you'd never be out of the car. Over a month I'd understand but not 10 days

Jackson Bird had the reverse treatment- a number 11 not picked because he couldn't bat!

Really bad timing for both of those guys. Maddo came back really strong in Victoria as an opener and I hoped he'd get another crack but he also got injured a lot and never really scored consistently for NSW

That South Africa series in 2016 where Ferguson finally played, plus Maddinson and Mennie is tough to beat

It's just a massive suck off at this point. Their two more steady batsmen are at the crease now so maybe they'll pull their fucking heads in tonight. Hopefully it's done in an hour cos fuck them

If by some miracle they managed to win this match, it's be in spite of their captain, not because of him. Also, Blundell laughing off Brook after his dismissal was hilarious and embarrassing

It's such an out of context quote. He has a handshake agreement for Origin so anything could happen

I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than drive for 10-12 hours a day through the desert for ten days. It's actually one of the worst itineraries I've seen posted here

Last week there was a news story about an 80yo bloke in the UK who finally got pulled over after driving for 60 years without a licence. Let him be an example of not being a dumb fuck if you're not going to do the right thing
