As the fourth test peters out to a noosnfnsltgrffffffffffffffffffffyrgjnxzvvdacvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvffffff.
Sorry about that, my head fell onto my keyboard as I have fallen asleep watching the last two sessions of this boring, mundane, insipid, worthless, pointless, devoid of life test match. I spose as an Australian supporter we will have to get used to this, cos the days of us bowling sides out twice game after game are a thing of the past.
Anway, given its all over I thought it be best to touch on my pre-summer predictions. It was a pretty ordinary result - 3/10. This is a poor reflection of my otherwise excellent premonitions (get the bucket for Uncle J, Sime) but here goes.
Michael Hussey to be replaced in the side by his brother by the New Years test in Sydney - WRONG
Mitchell Johnson to be dropped for Ashley Noffke - WRONG
Stuart Clark to go wicketless over the six tests - WRONG
Andrew Symonds to top the batting averages - CORRECT HA HA, the only prediction that I actually got properly correct. Who would have guessed in their wildest dreams that Symonds would beat Ponting, Hayden, Hussey et al. He remarkebly averaged 92.5 over the six tests.
Brett Lee to tear his harmsting off the bone trying to eclipse his 2004 figures against India and the SCG - WRONG
Stuart MacGill to be suspended for bringing the game into disrepute after he complained about the red wine that was served at the end of the Hobart test - CORRECT (well sort of) injured, suspended... at least we didn't have to put up with the pyscho, even if his replacement was as useless as tit$ on a bull
Michael Clarke to realise just how lucky he is to be $hagging Lara - I don't care if he doesn't realise it, but he is a lucky mutha-fu(ka. And for those who don't know who Lara is ...
Phil Jacques to realise his dream by defecting to represent France in the World Cup qualifiers - yet to be totally decided, cos his cricketing talents won't carry him too far me thinks - especially once Hayden retires
Shane Watson to not play a game this summer. I know this is hard to believe, the selectors will have to be replaced for such an oversight though!!!!!!! - CORRECT, but who cares a fu(k anyway!!!
Ricky Ponting to train the winner of the Perth Cup in a "trainer swap" realtiy tv show to be shown on Channel 9. Viewers will be unsure what night it is on, cos it'll change every week. - WRONG
Well done to India for actually taking it up to us - it really should have been 1-1, but Aussie Steve must have had his hard earned on us in Sydney. Now for the even more boring one-dayers - there is nothing surer than an Indian win in that series - we only worry about the big stuff and the World Cup is 3 years away!!!
