Why Int'l 2nd XIs should never have been renamed A-Teams.

It made much more sense when they were called B Teams. Besides, the A Team was an 80s TV show. Unfortunately, it's also being remade as a 21st Century movie...

Do they actually hit anyone this time?

Dunno. There's a bit in the trailer where their plane blows up and they take refuge in a tank, with parachutes attached.

Parachutes on a 40 ton tank? Excellent!

There's a Saffie playing Murdoch, so probably.

Will any be white?

Well as it's the guy from District 9 they won't be prawns

Oh and Dwight Shultz and Dirk Benedict have cameos in the movie. Mr T refused for resons unknown. And George Peppard? Well they tried using a Ouija board, but it didn't work so well in an action movie.

The Karate Kid is also being remade this year. Will Smith's son plays the Daniel character and Jackie Chan plays the Mr Miagi charcter. There are a few Matrix like SFX thrown in as well.

They'd have been knackered even if Peppard had been alive. The moment they said they wanted him to act....

Didn't the 80s suck badly enough the first time around? As long as Australiam cricket doesn't slide back to those levels I suppose.

You seem to be doing a good impression so far.

If push came to shove, I could live with it if the end result was the same. After all Australia won the Ashes in 1989, and I seem to vaguely recall holding them for a while after that.

Stop harking back to the past. The last 2 ashes series in England have been 'grouse'

Did you? Did we send a side at that time? I really can't remember. I think we were too busy being morally superior probably.
