Victoria travelled all the way to Traralgon to allow the red backs to be bowled out for 160.
The redbacks are rubbish.
Let me rephrase, their batsmen are rubbish.
Their bowlers are ok.
I can’t believe they went within 4 wickets of beating us at home.
We’re not rubbish, are we?
Today the game was over when their captain, who was once a batsman, and is now a part time offie only, went out to take the game to 6/76.
If you don’t count the old Victorian and the fat dude, the redbacks best batsman bat at 7, 8 & 9.
Horrible.
The wickets were shared, and Nannes, Harwood, & Denton were hardly missed.
You would have to say the Vics are no chance of making the final, even with the bonus point, that I assume they get.
Even being that they were only chasing 160, and they went for the bonus point losing 6 wickets is a bit of a worry.
Even if it was Tait that did the majority of the damage.
Oh and they lost 3 for 10 at one stage.
Shipperd, did I not ask you to fix this problem, don’t make me come down there.

day one
I’m not going to the Victoria game at the Junction oval.
Cause its more than one form of public transport and I’m busy this week.
But I did keep myself abreast of the scores today, which started great until Graham Manou made a ton.
He pretty much put the rubbish South Australian batting line up upon his shoulders and carried it to a decent score.
Manou and Gillespie are the best batsmen in that side, that is so scary for the redbacks.
They ended up at 320 which having been sent in was pretty good, but the Vics wouldn’t be too unhappy.
Then Quiney went out for not much, and Cameron White broke my heart by putting in a night watchman.
If White were a true allrounder he would have said to Hodge, he dipsh1t your job is to bat so get out there and do it.
Poor Nacho Siddle went out to watch for night and saw just the one ball.
So now instead of being a probably 1 for 9, we are a definite 2 for 9 and South Australia think they are a chance of knocking us over.
Damn it.
Oh and congrats to Huss and White for making it to the K-Rudd XI.

India, Baby, India. Or Waca, Baby, Waca.
The Vics are going to India.
My first question is, will they take Kumar Sarna for promotional purposes?
Actually my first question is, how good would CWB”S McGain and Dirty Dirk Nannes be in a bollywood film?
Hero and Villain respectively.
Sorry I’m off point.
Victoria narrowly avoided disaster by defeating South Australia with 5 runs up their sleeve tonight.
The Vics got off to a good start, before someone poked the bear (Tait), and he ran through the top order like someone running through something.
We were 4 for 26, but Future Pm David Hussey made another 50, he collects them like I used to collect free McDonalds cups. Every time he leaves the house.
Lucky cause as per normal, no one else did.
Victoria stuttered and spluttered their way to 9/140odd.
And then Daniel Harris slogged Harwood around like an extra in a kung fu film. Right up until the 6th over it looked like they would cruise to victory.
I know that sounds weird, 6th over and all. But in all seriousness,that’s like 13 overs in oneday cricket or a session or so in real cricket.
Then Our Nice Bryce McGain came on.
He swung the game around, like tait had earlier.
He finished with figures of 2/11 off four
Does he even understand he’s playing in a 2020 game? At his age things start to get muddled.
He slowed the redbacks down and got rid of tubs Cosgrove and suddenly the game was back on.
NSWelsh import Christian, dragged the redbacks back into the game with some big hitting and hard running, whilst the wickets fell around him.
They ended up needing 14 off the last over, which was made easier by a six off Dirty Dirks first ball.
In the last over it was him and Dan Cullen with 9 wickets down.
His next one went for two, and Christian got a bit hungry off the third and tried for another six but instead picked out the Future Pm and Victoria are in the final baby.
I can’t believe I’m getting excited over 2020.
Off to Perth, and then India here we come, in November.
