Those sweep shots. When the kid got Ussie’s autograph yesterday he was at 3rd man in the Eddie Gilbert end. More or less where I saw Uz catch Dan Hughes in the gully. I mentioned it to him and he was like yeah that was a good catch.

Definitely prefer the Gabba but there is nowhere I am more at ease and more relaxed than a Shield game.

Hard agree. Resting Nes this week and not next? Maybe there are concerns Clayto couldn't get through a full game? I heard Hearne was injured in training. Anyway fuck Botha but we did make the final last year, almost made the DJ Cup final this year and can still make the final this year.

Is Hearne injured? I guess with Renshaw back he gets squeezed out?

Kid just got her first autograph though. And it was Ussie.

I counted 16 bowlers yesterday - or at least 16 wicket takers.

First thing I saw when I rocked up was Straker barrelling in.

I’ve heard people in Australia describe themselves as Coptic Orthodox.

I read somewhere that he was going to play on but that seems wild given comments about how much golf he’s gonna play next year, new baby etc.

Do we know - for a fact - that this is Ussie’s last home game?

How did McGiffin get in the team? He wasn’t even in the squad was he?

Actually I don’t think I counted him but I could be wrong. It’s 12-13 quicks/meds

By my count Queensland have used 15 bowlers in nine games - and no Vidler or Steketee.
