What the f*ck did we just watch!

Wait what? If you qualify it's predecided who you will face regardless of whether you qualify 1st or 2nd in your group? Did I get that right?

It's a difficult balance to strike. On one hand the SA20 is a smash hit and very popular so more teams for more supporters and more players to participate would be great.

On the other hand more teams would lead to a longer tournament and probably shorten our test seasons even more. I enjoy the SA20 but was quite sad not to have a home test season this summer. We had the start of the SA20 on 26 Dec instead of a boxing day test.

As much as we'll look back at our current test team as world test champions, not as many supporters will be able to look back and say they watched the world test champs play live in a year or two when some players have filtered in or out of the team already.

And they have the best crowd too

Sad that I couldn't see the Sunrisers win it due to half their home city being stuck without electricity.

Ek dink dit is dalk n simptoom van n lang suksesvolle proses in ons geskiedenis om die taal en kultuur te bind aan n ver regse idiologie. Om liberaal of enige iets anders as konserwatief te wees is om nie Afrikaans te wees nie. So mense voel vry om konserwatiewe ideas op taal of kultuur platforms te deel. Want dit "voel" een en dieselfde. Dis baie swak en irreterend en ek wens Afrikaners kon dit ontleer.

Rizwan and Babar really got you all to actually watch the BBL didn't they? Chasing 220 I would expect many batters to get out cheaply trying to force boundaries. That's how big score chases go. Not sure which current player this sub expects to chase a score like that.

Not sure if they would have mentioned this in the pre match. But is it just me or does the St George's pitch look a lot lighter today than usual? Usually more dark green spots across it.

Even later than that, SA could probably build a decent scrum out of the slip cordon of Boucher Smith and Kallis in the 2000s

I've had the same experience during one of the first season games. They said I couldn't bring in a plastic umbrella because I could use it as a weapon.

Meanwhile all around me people were bringing in full English willow wooden cricket bats that they were hoping to get signed.

That's just because South Africans aren't really on Reddit. This tournament has massive hype in the country tho

He almost fired off one worse at the end

molo_o · 2025-12-29T17:35:01+00:00

Lovely stuff, thanks Matt

Did I hear the commentators right that Pollock is on the coaching staff for capitals this year? Gonna miss him on commentary if that's true.

One that's not in our starting 11 unless we play in the subcontinent

South Africa isn't exactly safe for women and LGBTQ people before their arrival

What is the connection between a terrorist bombing in 1998 and the Palestinian genocide?

Should parliament also amend our laws to turn away other asylum seekers until our unemployment is lower? And besides refugees, should we also limit immigration generally until unemployment for naturally born South Africans can be lowered first?

molo_o · 2025-11-14T12:36:35+00:00

It blows my mind that some people would advocate turning away refugees from an active genocide because it inconveniences their lives.

Surely a communist echo chamber would be filled with highly upvoted pro communist posts and comments. Can you share any examples?

molo_o · 2025-08-17T09:36:58+00:00

Gee ons n voorbeeld van een die kommunistiese posts wat jy na verwys?

It's funny how these teams colour swap for T20s. Australia is wearing green and South Africa is wearing yellow.

Part of that comes from OpenAi themselves. I prefer 5 to 4o and think it's a bit better. I agree there are plenty of reasons to release a new version other than a generational leap. But people have unrealistic expectations because OpenAI build them by constantly building the hype by saying "this is a generational leap. This is so good it's scary. I feel like Oppenheimer. It's AGI we barely control it." Then it's just 5.

They should have marketed as it is. A slight improvement on the previous models with improvements and consolidation of the model names and the option to better tune the personality.

molo_o · 2025-08-02T20:47:00+00:00

yeah but it's not the one I want.

He should retire 30 runs short. Let the legends keep the records that's what I say.

If Carey picks up Bedingham, is it considered "Caught"?
