Stinks to high hell

How do you get David Hussey out cheaply?

You drag him from Sydney to Radelaide mid match, because a NSWelshman (uhum) has sore ribs.

Then when the sore ribs feel good enough to make a 70 odd in an international match, you send him back to the SCG where he can no longer bat at the number 4 spot he so beautifully patrols.

Now when it comes to Victoria I often get caught up in conspiracy theories.

But this is no conspiracy theory, this happened in front of our very own eyes like when Greedo shot first, we actually saw it all happen.

So what compensation do Victoria get today, being that the future PM averages about 70 something this season, and he was jet lagged out for 20 something, surely any Victorian total should be given a 50 run bonus.

That won’t happen though, because this is a conspiracy to ensure that Victoria do not get a home final.

Wake up people.

Who takes a player from a game, when a back up is already in the squad, and then sends him back again because he is not required?

This stinks to high hell. Have always wanted to say that.

But regardless of this, Victoria will prevail, because Victoria has something that NSWales can never have, Victorian spirit.

I’ve always wanted to say that as well.

Victoria are now in a dodgy position, but they did manage to tie on first innings yesterday, after giving the NSWelsh a partnership between a debutante and a teenager.

In true Victorian style they then took 3 for 3 and both teams were dead even on 394.

While it guarantees a final, the fact we let NSWales get that close is horrible.

And who the hell is this Cameron fellow, and why does he have 9 wickets?

They only took 2 bowlers into this game, and one of them has hardly got a cracker, and we still might lose.

I'm holding onto the words that keep popping up though, deteriorating pitch, they make me feel a little better.

Side note, Congrats to Michael Hill (greensbourough boy according to cricinfo) on his big score for the Strayan under 19 side.

Lets hope he becomes as good a player as Adam Smith or Clinton Peake.

oh poor Vics lost a single player. If you get a 50 run bonus for future PM Dave, surely we'd be entitled to a bonus for Clarke, Clark, Bracken and Lee? But that wont happen either..

No because they were picked to play, not part of a conspiracy.
