Should sell his white floppy instead

We all know what his opinion is on the supposed value of a baggy green. He loves toeing into Tugger over the whole wearing of it in the first session. I am not surprised he's auctioning it off.

It's a great cause and good on him for doing it...but he doesn't give 2 hoots for it..

I'm not taking away the benefit that comes from it, just stating that I don't believe it really meant anything of significance to him. If I were ever good enough to earn a Baggy Green, I'd be buried with it.

Its obviously important to him , but not as important as it is to others

You dream of debuting for Australia and getting a baggy green as a youngster

You wouldn't expect Steve Waugh or Justin Langer to do what Warne is doing , but that is OK as well

Steve Waugh’s baggy green is in the SCG museum under the ladies stand

His old one or new one ??

I remember reading in his autobiography he ended up having to replace his 1st baggy green as it was so battered

I’m guessing but I’d say first one as it is very well worn.

Warnie is interesting. I’d say he values his Baggy Green immensely. Probably more peeved at being told by Steve Waugh when he has to wear it. Wouldn’t like being told what to do old Warnie

Yeah that and getting melanomas wouldn't be too appealing

I know I'm not looking forward to having around a dozen sunspots frozen off and then doing the toxic skin cream treatment in winter

Never thought of that angle.

So in today’s brave new world, being required to wear the baggy green could in fact be an employee welfare issue. Interesting times!

I’m sure it wasn’t white or floppy when Liz was around

Sorry

I went there in early 2018 on the tour, I'm almost certain it's the old one. I can't find my photos from the day out unfortunately so cannot confirm.

In the balance but Australia right in this game. Zampa just got Kohli early

 

[Geo]

Zampa snags Kohli..onya bike and the smug arse Indian commentators go into mourning..

And 50000 people go silent!

Can sense the tears in the commentary box

 

[Tiger_Steve]

When I saw how many Indians were in the crowd I thought they were playing at the SCG!

That was a absolute screamer he took


Very nice catch

 

[happy_tiger]

Australia still on for an Indian nudie run

 

[jadtiger]

The longer the game went on the more annoyed Kohli got.By the end of the game he was spitting chips no doubt worried about what the Indian press would be saying.I honestly thought he was going to cry when his appeals failed

 

[Geo]

Get that INTIYA..

 

[TheDaBoss]

India didnt turn up......


We r to good
