    I can't believe the difference in the All Blacks when they don't have Dan Carter. It's almost as bad as when Wilko is missing for England...!

    It's Carter and Umaga as well (although the Umaga loss is permanent). The pack was a bit green as well. Reinforces the whole point that you have to win up front first before you can be all flashy.

    22-3 now.
    Yep, we're ****.
    No cohesion, crap defensively and no execution.

    I just don't get Robinson at all, he's gone from playing the same losing side and making no changes, to making far too many changes and the team loses it's shape.

    Robinson out!!

    England just seem to keep getting worse ever since the World Cup. Maybe you have too many foreigners in your domestic competition!

    The team he played today was so random. OK, blood a few new players to see how they do, but don't change the whole team! And especially don't play with a forward pack that has been doing alright (compared to the rest of the team).

    With the Blue Jays' pitching starting to crumble it is always nice to see Roy Halladay step up to the mound. He pitched a complete game and only let up one run to end the Jays' three game slide. He is definitely The Man when it comes to ending losing streaks.

    Well, Edmonton managed to stay alive for at least a couple more days. I thought they would be crushed in game five but they managed to win on a shorthanded overtime goal. It was a pretty entertaining game too.

    England playing Sri Lanka at Twenty 20 tonight. I wonder if anybody in England will actually be watching, given that there is some other sporting event on at the moment that seems to be quite popular.

    Dropped it back on now because Sweden look like they;ve won that game with a late goal.

    98 from 66 needed with Tresco and Big Kev in, no problem! We'll clear them off!

    If by 'clear them off', you mean 'lose', then you were 100% right!

    Who on earth is Dalrymple?

    That 2nd to last over did us. We were laughing with Tres in there, once he got out that was it.

    Dalrymple plays in county cricket, and he's no great shakes. Same for Bresnan.

    It is amazing how fast people jump on and off the bandwagon around here - the Blue Jays lose three in a row and everyone seems to think that the team is going to completely collapse and drop out of playoff contention - but then they turn around and win the next three and everyone is back on the bandwagon again.

    Oh well, it was nice to see Lilly get a quality start. Baltimore managed to get a lot of men on base but he managed to keep them all from scoring.
