+1 to the list of stupid people. There is no need for that comment, other than to grow your e-penis through more posts if thats your thing...

But anyway, I'm just hoping for some good all round cricket. I'm glad to see Vettori in the team :)

Can't wait for the test match and Warne vs The World

Bleh I was at work

still the result is great

Am I the only one that feels the super sub goes against alot of what cricket is about. I mean having a sub that you can bring on to bat or bowl....To me it just seems as a way to remove your weakest link player durring key momeents in the game, like getting rid of glen mcgragh from the batting lineup by using someone else and then making a "super sub" to take a batsmen off the field and replace em with a bowler (ie glen) or something later on.

I didnt see the match so didnt see how the super subs were used, but what I heard of it that seems to be how its intended to be used or something. meh

I duno, it seems like a bad idea to me.

I can't understand how Watson got Man of the Match, granted I didn't actually see the game. But Mcgrath looked like he did better, 7 Overs 2 for 13. At the start of the innings that basically rockets the required run rate. Hell, even Vettori had better figures than Watson :/

yeah I noticed that too. No single player won or lost the game for either team, Australia only had one batsmen to score above 50 and the world team actually had the top scorer. The AU lineup was more consistant.

And yeah I'm glad that thats how it went, I still feel like we lost the ashes based on the inconstant batting performances and we relied to much on 1 or 2 ppl an innings to build a total. One day vs test is very different, but hopefully its a sign of things to come.

I agree with Jerry, I hope the World XI put the Aussies in their place.

Yes... It doesn't hurt to dream I suppose. Heck, even the poms were due to score one off us eventually. 1 out of 18 ain't bad eh? :laugh:

Australia dismisses the World XI. 9/273 off 45.3 overs. Well played guys!

Btw, stamps issued by the Royal Mail to celebrate England's Ashes success.

DUNNO. MAYBE I IS TEH WIN. MAYBE AUS. WILL T3H win.

no seriously, what's up with this aussie obsession about cricket? i'll zap onto eurosports and see if there's anything interesting on.

Why shouldn't they be? The Aussies are the best team in the game today. I'm not sure if it's the national sport of Australia.

Dream? Maybe its time for some people to come back to reality. :p Dropping players, taking drastic steps etc. sounds like the approach of a team going down.

England, Pakistan, New Zealand, Srilanka are all on the up. :)

Its pathetic that the World XI couldnt pull it off. Guess I'm one step closer to winning my bet. :happy:

We loose ONE series and you all think we are on the down. Seriously England didnt smash us in the Ashes as much as you would have yourselves believe. You won and congrats but 3 of the games came down to the wire, another we won, it was hardly what I would call a dominating performance.

Seriously, come back when your team has won more games. As said we won the last 18 ashes and while that might mean nil to you since you have the last one, the fact of the matter is that we have been winning more games than other teams in the world in recent times (say the past 12 months).

I think a team can loose 3 games and not be considered "on the down". As for dropping players, thats natural and when you have the strength on the sideline that we do then we can afford to kick a player or two. The teams hardly changed in the past 12 months. Infact the ability to interchange players is a strength in a team...its certainly not a weakness.

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2.
