REDBACKS - Season Long Thread

Postby maccatak11 » Tue Oct 14, 2008 6:56 pm

Does anybody here follow the redbacks on here?

I nickname the Jellybacks, as they have been spineless for quite some time now.

Things looked promosing pre-season, with some decent recruits coming from interstate (Michael Klinger and Allan Wise from VIC, and Aaron O'brien drom NSW) and Younis Khan playing most of the games before christmas (he is yet to arrive though and will most likely start in our next shield game).

But it looks like we are again in for a long season. We got belted in the one-dayer by 8 wickets after making a modest 239 on an absaloute road, and Victoria are 2 for 352 at stumps on the first day of the first shield game.

Tait is playing in both games, but we just can't get wickets.

Could be a really long season.

Funnily enough, this is exactly how I have felt about their performances over the last few years!

lol, I heard one of the cricketers call them the 'Deadbacks' on fox. That name suits them a lot too. Just dreadful. ..
Wehay, almost 50 and not a wicket yet!

Surely a typo- has anyone heard anything on the radio?
