This is without a doubt the strongest team put forward this summer, if they cant do it we're well and truly screwed. But they can, oh yes they can.
I think we will underperform in batting again, about 220-230, but our fielding/bowling will see us home.

It's not really but it is a great opportunity to bluster away at the electorate, who you're trying to sell nationalism to as part of your new security regime.

Australian policies towards non anglo people has been fairly dodgy for quite some time. Take a look back at 1 stolen generation, 2 white Australia immigration restrictions, 3 more recently the Tampa and its refugees. The wierd thing about this is there are huge and I mean huge communities of non anglo peoples there. Italians, Greeks, Serbs, Croats, Vietnamese, Lebanese, not to mention loads of expats too, some of whom may be anglo or caucasian. The thing is that Australians are very overt in their ways of living, we seem to have a bit more of the repressed English thing happening here. To just carry on etc.
Buggered if I'd kiss their flag though. -
Rather than say "no Australian flags" wouldn't it have been easier to say "no flags" and put it down to a safety issue or to prevent obstructed views of the stage?
There goes that pesky 20/20 hindsight again. That was the obvious thing to do, combatting the issue without even referencing it.
As far as the circle of elmo or whatever it is goes, sounds appropriately nutty for the kids...
