That's a real shame, but we all knew it was looming. He was really good and also didn't seem as cunty as his teammates.

Harris seems like the kind of guy who would make an excellent bowling coach. Not naturally gifted but did well through attention to detail and technique (and not just giving it his all like Siddle).

He's pretty similar to Shane Bond in a lot of ways.

They should hack his leg off and get him a super-bionic one. He won't miss the foot after a few months.

I think Warner did actually understand Rohit Sharma as an aside. His apology was a bit too cute and he has spent enough time in India to pick up the swears. I don't know if he is racist or not but he's an arsehole that's a fact. Still that's cricket for you.

Hopefully now he's got a kid he will realise he's a bit of a fuckwit and needs to tone it down a bit. e: also very sad about Harris. Assume his knee has got to the point where it's just bone on bone. Airstream Driver fucked around with this message at 13:59 on Jul 4, 2015 |

The episode of insight he was on earlier this year where he talked about his pain was interesting RYAN HARRIS: I've got a bad knee basically where I'm bone on bone inside and out, obviously the way I land, the way I twist, but it's, as I said, it's a day-to-day thing. I have really good days and I have really, really bad days. RYAN HARRIS: It's probably - it's again something you're used to. I get up sometimes and I say to Cherie I don't know how I'm going to do it today. You know, and that's sort of it. Once I get up the first three or four steps to the shower or to the bathroom, whatever it is, you know, she virtually laughs at me and then probably thinks the same thing. But you know after that, every step after that it literally sort of starts to feel better.

My Dad has the same injury. He's walked with a limp as long as I can remember. If Harris is anything like him he'll complain to his family about it constantly.

David Warner is a white Australian so it's not a matter of if he is a racist but more of exactly how big a racist he is.

113 wickets in 27 tests at an average of 23.52. That is elite. Pretty good for a guy who debuted at an age that most other fast bowlers had passed their peak.

I don't see whats so surprising about an Australian cricketer being sensitive about racism. Just look at Darren Lehmann's record on the matter.

The amazing thing about Harris is he spent most of his South Australian career as a one day batting all rounder. It wasn't until 2 or 3 seasons before he moved to Queensland that he started playing as a specialist bowler.

I'm Crap posted:yes actually. i mean it definitely sounds like it, from everyone's account including warner's the article you linked posted:The Australians were invited into a roped-off area at the Walkabout along with members of the New Zealand team and a group of England players turned up, including Root, Stuart Broad and Finn. So the Australians and Kiwis are drinking in a roped off area by themselves, then the English show up and start loving around with them and ruining their night. Acting shocked you get punched in the face when you invade someone else's party without an invitation then spend your time trying to wreck the night is loving next level.

Is there anything more putrid than an Australian who unironically, unconditionally supports the Australian cricket team? Smiling through bared teeth, being aggressively racist and wondering why no one sees things the way they do.
