  1. Wait for Sinclair…..buddy ….u talk a lot confidently .

    ..he won't talk a lot if a good and fair Australian tour of the West Indies ….Its all a bluff with Australia dictating ICC agenda ..

    SAVING THAT OVERATED MEDIOCRE TEAM from a soundvtrashing in the WI , Sri Lanka , South Africa , Bangladesh etc ….Overrated compare with Steve Waugh , Ricky Ponting and Greg Chappel touring Teams to the West Indies in yester yrs …..Those fellas were true fighters not these current players ….Touring WI for vacationing reasons…
    Island hopping for fun …Deliberately avoiding Guyana , Trinidad , Jamaica and Barbados..
    They now they would get a sound trashing and distorted records 😂…..Admiration for past batters of Australia Ponting , S Waugh ,M Waugh , Border , Laird , G Chappel etc etc and the great bowlers Brett Lee , J Gillespie etc ..

    Real tough and great players …most games outside Australia ( parched , cracked pitches , bias umpiring and ball fixing , sledging , rushing to use conditions to advantage….just like India ..

    .maybe doctering pitches for home advantage…….Head and Labushe is not good batters outside Australia and Hazelwood and Starc struggles outsie Australia too …

  2. Ronnie for PM. A top coach and the right man for the job

  3. Just a CA puppet and yes man, like Bailey as a selector, just do what NSW want them to do, the players did not like older school coaches such as John Buchannan and Langer, they like puppets that can be manipulated and AM is top of the tree on that one.

  4. What happend smith? No 100😢

  5. Reality this guy is not a coaches bootlace he is just an excuse maker

  6. Green should bat at no.1.number four smith.thats it..

  7. Green needs to bat at 4,Whatsoever.

  8. Where's Rick McCosker where you need him? There's a tough Australian…….

  9. He is better in Coaching than Justin Langer 😅

  10. Excellent cricket over all the world ❤❤

  11. The comments here make no sense.

  12. Imagine how good we’d be if we had an actual coach instead of a hype man…
