All happening at Hobart in test 2. Aussie are down 5 wickets already having been sent in, Phillander off the field after a heavy collision with Steve Smith.

Stupid shot by Warner
Burns bat-pad flaws haven't been corrected
Khawaja probably shouldn't have played at that length but I've only seen one replay
Ferguson runs himself out tho it was a good throw
Voges got a fairly good one
Nevil gets chopped off by a millimetre of leather on review

Mostly it's fucking poor technique, a shit toss to lose, and discipline by South Africa

[NTA]

This Mennie bloke looks solid.

Gotta say, having seen the replay of Faf patting Aleem Dar on the shoulder: you can say what you like about Aussie disrespect, but laying hands on an umpire like that is a fucking cock move, and Dar did NOT look impressed.

You are in a buoyant mood today NTA.

"Resigned" is the word you're looking for. This team's performance simply doesn't live up to the payroll.

[No Quarter]

Fuck 43/6 at lunch. Either Smith gets a big 100 or it's 2-0. Disastrous start to the summer of cricket for our friends across the ditch.

Starc might have something to say in these conditions if the clouds stay

[Virgil]

Gone for 85, SA just one good innings away from wrapping up the series.

Bugger, I've only just tuned in - missed the whole drama!

Puts our series in SA into context

Indeed!
Takes 3 wickets in fuck all balls

There really is fuck all you can do when a full ball travelling at 147 seams away half a bat width

Fucking glorious to watch... If you're not the poor fluffybunny on the end of the fisting

It's nearly my favourite thing in sport

In terms of cricket, I find it hard to pick between Starc and his elegant swing attack making people look stupid, and Jonson's sheer fucking brutality making blokes shit themselves.

Hazlewood now getting movement

[mariner4life]

Michael Clarke's inability to say the "L" sounds in "brilliant" means he really should shelve it.
