well done Cooky, superb knock AGAIN!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Nice

 

[Lord Bracknell]

A well deserved ton!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Hurrah, century up for Cook

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Well played Alistair Cooke, man of the series?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Take a bow

 

[Marc]

double nelson....

 

[Jerryatric]

Dirty cheating bastards. Now let's stuff 'em!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Streaky from Collingwood, serves the Aussies right.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Big of the Australians to applaud Cook there. Oh, wait. They didn't

 

[Titanic]

Meanwhile Collingwood continues prodding, poking and scratching around.... what a contrast

Not very sporting of the Aussies. Don't see that they have anything to complain about.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

You tell em beefy

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

TV interviews at the close of play should be interesting, Athers dosnt usually pull any punches withhis straight to the point questions.
Like "why did you claim the catch when you knew it didnt carry?"
"why didnt you applaud Cooks hundred?"

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Bollox, Collingwood gone

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Oh dear

 

[Titanic]

Meanwhile Collingwood continues prodding, poking and scratching around.... what a contrast

And finally slashes one up in the air. A pretty poor performance with the bat from Colly.

226-5

 

[Marc]

Collingwood fails again, me thinks his Test career is coming to an end now

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

It will be interesting to hear Warnes comments on the cheating catch

Sometimes you can put those down to the fielder genuinely not knowing because they turn away slightly. But not that one. Embarrassment, a total embarrassment.
