Hairy javelin?
If I had to put money on a single over-used hilarious-but-not-really nickname... that would have been it.
Also just realized, holy shit it's still going?
But still don't know score, still don't care. Drinking $10 quarts of shit old-school NZ beer at an East Coast bar.... no capacity for even more excitement. -

I thought Ruben Love was meant to be playing for team rugby. I think Laumape has taken his place.
Was it @Donsteppa who, back in the day, lamented "we finally get a world class player, and he's an overweight alcoholic?"

That phrasing sounds very JP, though a few of us probably said versions of it

For Jesse Ryder? That phrasing sounds very JP, though a few of us probably said versions of it
You and @JP look the same. Still makes me laugh.

Mike Hussey is going to get roasted by his colleagues on the BBL Fox Commentary the next time he appears on there with his dropped catches tonight.

Now for the traditional time of the night where some of the crowd disintegrate.
The joy of waking up with a hangover, a $5000 fine, tresspass notice and a court summons.

Jordie saving the day for Team Rugby.

Getting Grant Elliot LBW for a duck and hitting Neil Wagner for six and four is a great night out for a cricketer, let alone a Rugby player. These guys aren't that long retired. Impressive stuff.

Jordie choking as per haha.

The constant incredulous look on Husseys face tells me he won’t likely be back
All those streakers, 5 or 6 times it happened?, showed how much of a shit show it descended intoAlso if he cones bank someone should tell Wags your not meant to go too hard when bowling…

The whole thing is like when the other half watches Love Island
You know it's pretty shit, cringy and embarrassing but you tune in anyway.
I think there will be a bit of a stink about the streakers given there were lots of kids present.
Hussey is a modern Cricket great and modest as he sounded he was probably a bit embarrassed to contribute fuck all. I think that was his first and last match.
Laumape was basically a specialist fielder all night. I was channel surfing but I don't remember him actually doing any fielding ? probably a good thing not to mic him up, he might have said something offensive.
Wags did look a bit over aggressive, again, the fact an All Black handled his bowling ok is pretty damn impressive. Jordie looked more like a real batsman than Southee did. Read, Slade and Boshier looked good batting as well. It might be shits and giggles but the former AB captain has shown remarkable consistency in these games.

All those streakers, 5 or 6 times it happened?, showed how much of a shit show it descended intoYeah. We weren't there this year, but our 2024 experience was that the second innings descends into carnage.
Whatever the ratio, it's the old story that most people are great and happy partiers, but a small number go completely feral.
Which can be entertaining if you don't have kids with you, or if you aren't with another family that's keen to sit outside the family zone...
