Cricket Sledging
Found these on facebook......don't know if it's genuine or not, but makes the current "sledging" sound a little pathetic!!
***************************************
Yesterday's mX (free Sydney newspaper for those wondering what the hell mX is) included the following list of "the best verbals" in cricket over the years. Now this is how you sledge!
- Zimbabwean Eddo Brandes to Glenn McGrath, after McGrath asked why he was so fat
"Because every time I **** your wife, she gives me a biscuit."
- Englishman Robin Smith, who hit Merv Hughes for six after being told by the big quick he couldn't ****in bat
"Hey Merv, we make a great pair. I can't ****in bat and you can't ****in bowl!"
- Viv Richards to Ian Botham, after Botham showed him the ball and said "Here, have a good look at it. That's what it looks like. See if you can hit it."
Richards hit a six and replied "Well, you know what it looks like, go and get it."
- Merv Hughes upon dismissing Viv Richards, after being told by the West Indian his culture didn't allow sledging.
"In my culture mate, we say piss off!"
- Ian Healy to Shane Warne, discussing how to draw Sri Lankan batsman Arjuna Ranatunga down the pitch
"Put a Mars Bar on a good length, that should do it."
- South African Daryll Cullinan to Shane Warne, after Warne said he'd been waiting two years to humiliate him again
"Looks like you spent it eating."
and my personal favourite
- Rod Marsh to Ian Botham
"So how's your wife and my kids?"

First and last one does it for me.
Boys will be boys comes to mind.
As they might say, "it's just not cricket"!
Heres a couple of snippets I found:
After the umpteenth boundary, Hughes headed down the pitch, stood near Cronje, let out a fart and said: "Try hitting that for six." It was five minutes before the guffawing stopped and play could resume.in the world cup final hershelle gibbs dropped steve waugh and he went on to score 120 which led to south africa losing.
Waugh bellowed "you just dropped the world cup, hershelle"David Hookes to that tall streak of crap, Tony Grieg in the Centenary Test. Grieg was sledging from in close to unsettle Hooksey and after a bit when Hookes wasn't responding Grieg came out with 'Come on, you baby faced bastard, you're too young to be out here playing with men.'
Hookesy's comeback: 'At least I am an Australian, representing my own country in a Test match!!' Conversation over.
The one I like is the reply to this "The wife is fine but the kids are retarded".Originally Posted by Devil^Boy
I always like Heal's one to Ranatunga when he asked for a runner for the umpteeth time in a match "You cant have a runner just cuz your unfit". Unfortanetly for Heal's that one came though the stump mike.
I thought it was "you can't have a runner just because you are a fat ****"
The full quote was overweight, unfit, fat ****. Just checked the list I have here. I tried to find a soundfile/youtube of it but couldn't.
hogg carges dropped, ah well what a kaduffle maybe we wil see some cricket
bring on the perth test
Heard that this morning, guess they couldn't get a good enough case together and decided to focus on the Harbi case instead.
Try This
Thanks Biggun
seriously but, with all the time they have to spare in cricket you'd reckon they'd come up with some absolute rippers to pass the time by...these while quite funny must fall well short of what's really going on out there.
I remember a little while back receiving an Email with most of these sledges. Its in a power point presentation, I look at it when I need a laugh.
If anyone wants it let me know, or I will try to work out how to put it into a post.
yeah go on, post it Biggun
how do i insert a power point into a post guys?
You could put it in using the Megaupload links below. I believe that will work, or you could zip it and use the standard attachments if its not too big.
Already posted roguefan, look at post 11
For some reason the chronological order of all posts since yesterday is stuffed
