Shane Watson issues an Ashes warning

No, really.

Seriously people - stop laughing, get off the floor and read on.

Shane Watson - with his girly hair, his baby face, his crap bowling and his "I'm not very smart, I'm from Northern Queensland" accent - has shaken his finger and issued an Ashes warning to England.

This pre-Ashes war of words - I love it. It's fun, it can get nasty, Ponting's face gets all hilarious and it gets the crowd all exited about the matches to come. But really, if we want to get involved, surely we can do better than Shane Watson?

This is just embarrassing.

Bit hard. Can you give me an hour or two?

Obviously, it doesn't have the same effect as McGrath predicting 5-0, and even THAT came a couple years late.

Dave said...

For Australia to gain a psychological edge, they just need Glenn McGrath to wander about before each game. Well, that and Twatto needs to shut the up.

Shane Warne tweeting abuse at England fans, telling them it will all end in tears - what about that? Rich coming from the guy who is now all but English himself.

If youse guys really want to traumatise us, just a picture of Don Bradman with the caption of "I'll average your Mother" would do it

LOL Craig! I was thinking of sending Steve Waugh to threaten you all with a cricket bat. Twatto, however, just doesn't cut it.

...I think it's a genius plan. It'll send the poms chuckling into the Tests with their eye off the ball.

They should have Shane Watson posters at the airport...in the cities....in the bloody dressing rooms....arms spread with his cheesy smile saying 'welcome to Australia'. It'll keep the effect going. Genius.

Told you they wouldn't pick Nathan. They've been looking and they've found a new spinner. That lefty in the ODI...what's his name again....

Sidthegnomenator said...

Stani, you said they wouldn't pick Nathan for the Ashes. This is NOT the ashes.

Hauritz was never playing this first ODI, because of his commitment to NSW while their captain has a broken finger. I did actually say that a few posts ago.

Sidthegnomenator said...

Stani, I like your thinking on the genius plan. It is a possibility that sending in Twatto to issue warnings is deliberate. There's just one little flaw in your theory - Australia are being shit when they play.

That won't help things along, now, will it?

Stani Army said...

Noo, this is the prep for the Ashes though.

...I think Clarke is trying to mess up the plan by killing Watson.

Sidthegnomenator said...

I think Clarke would probably like to mess up Watson, he is so unbelievable stupid. Sadly, he can be pretty good with the bat and we need him. Especially if Katich's finger doesn't mend in time.
