Blake Austin Selection in Great Britain in the Lions’ Elite Training Squad

[hobbo1]

The poms have no shame.

Look at their cricket team that just won the World Cup. The following were born overseas

Jason Roy (South Africa)
Eoin Morgan (Ireland)
Ben Stokes (New Zealand)
Jofra Archer (Barbados)

In fact Morgan was their captain....

Usman khawaja (Pakistan)
Andrew Symonds (England )
Lol
Bowl the next one underarm lol

A couple in the last decade vs 4 in the same side.

You could keep going with the Pommie side.

KP? Strauss? Nasser Hussain? Tony Greig?

Basil D'Oliveira

And rugby league wise .....list is endless Rangi Chase , Chris heighington , McQueen ,

How you doing old Blighty ?
Is it true what Geo said ...
Every time you look up at the blue sky all you see is NSW & England ?
Cheer up Matey Boy !

I agree with him, I don't even like coaches from other countries unless it's a developing country in that sport.

Mate hasn’t that ship sailed - in many sports. No longer is it a necessity for the coach to come from the country he’s coaching. Would be real weird I’d reckon

 

[colinbh]

@Tiger_Steve Benji said tonight that he would like Austin back and that he ( Benji ) would play him at lock forward.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Why would you want to aspire to play for Souths?

 

[Don Kershane]

Prince Philip was signed up by Tony Abbott to be a Knight but never got a game-didn't pass his driving test so couldn't get to training.

Khawaja emigrated when he was five. Symonds came here when he was three months old.

Jofra Archer didn't even live in England until he was an adult, Eoin Morgan is an Irishman, Ben Stokes was in his teens when he moved to England, don't know about Roy, but he was probably a ring in as well.

Before that there was Kevin Pietersen, Johnathon Trott, Matt Prior, Tom Curran, Gary Ballance, Andy Caddick, Geraint Jones & Adam Hollioake. All guys who came through other national teams colts programmes, and these are only the ones I know about.

Will Rooty go back to the good old days get the boys to break out the pocket soil and trouser zippers for this series?

Fun fact there is actually 107 of them...out of 736

 

[Madgic]

@Newtown I hate agreeing with Poms but he's right! He's not playing NRL because a series of clubs flicked him, now suddenly he's international standard? 😂😂😂😂

 

[momo_amp_medo]

@hobbo1 This was at the time South Africa was banned from international Cricket (1970 to early 90s) because of its government's policy of apartheid.

 

[happy_tiger]

Suppose things must be bright in England if they are signing blokes who can't crack it at their chosen position at the WT's

Would have admitted it was ill gotten though, same way I supported the bans on Warner, Bancroft and Smith. Got no drama in pointing out the flaws in the Aussie cricket team.

 

[TieDye]

@Cultured_Bogan mate I’ve just seen the replay and, fair dinkum, NZ bottled it I reckon even with Guptill’s last ball of super over... did not place the leg-side flick well AT ALL. Trent Boult misfield?

But the Ross Taylor wicket, and Ben Stokes actually clearly being given one more run than he should’ve for the overthrows? WTF is that

I’m Australian by residence but contemplating joining the protest over in our sibling country... they have been robbed. Great game👍

We were still the better side as we hit more boundaries ..
Sheep shaggers choked with poor fielding as well .
