Well done, England, for a solid win vs New Zealand in the second test. But...was anyone else bemused during the post-match interviews by the quantity of English players' references to their planned drinking session?! Fair enough that they should celebrate the win, but the next test does start in a few days! (I wonder what advice English rugby debutant Danny Cipriani might have to offer...)I particularly enjoyed Michael Vaughan's repost to Atherton's question about the final test strategy in Napier:
"Well, we've got to get there first - it is St Patrick's Day!"
Mothers, lock up your pedalos.
It occurs to me that my Burble profile picture makes me look slightly hypocritical.
ReplyDeletePerhaps if the cricketers got a bit more drinking practise they wouldn't be such liabilities when they go out for a session?!?
ReplyDeleteIf they'd told everyone they were on the town in England they'd have the tabloids following them everywhere and sending in people to try and get them into a fight, but they should be alright in NZ.
And yes, your profile pic does make you look hypocritical!!
I realise I was a bit harsh about their drinking abilities given it's only Flintoff that the press have latched onto for drinking....
