New Zealand v Australia, 5th ODI, Wellington, Mar 13

Was amusing to hear the Kiwi commentators response to Ponting being given out off the helmet, compared to being given not out to the LB last game.

One was the greatest travesty since the fat slag failed to win Big Brother, the other was 'oh well, mistakes are made, and it was a good ball...'

JAMODI

Care factor? Minus 56

You think the Australian clowns would be any different?

Actually I do, Mick.

Punter survived a plumb lbw shout a game or two back and the Shagger commentators sooked about it for the next 10 overs.

In this instance, it was discounted in a ball (something along the lines of "oh well, this makes up for the plumb lbw the other day) and not mentioned again. Shagger commentators (Smuthy in particular) are gaggingly biased.

Still, it was a p!sspoor effort on our part. 242 should've been a doddle. I dunno what Voges thought he was doing.

Mate, no problem in accepting this, but I've also heard Lawry, Slater & others in a very like mode.

Have some more, sir? ....

The unashamed bias of the kiwi commentators is actually quite funny, especially the way they openly bemoan a daft shot played by one of their batsmen and have multiple orgasms over suxes slogged by the likes of McCullum.

At the end of such series the average thinking JAMODI fan must feel like Mr Creosote.

Smuffy was more indignant that the umpy called a wide that hit the pad than the caught off the head thingy. However he did link it to drunky's to say the umpire had a shocker and would cop it.

I don't mind MacMillan's commentary

I think Riga is the least biased but Doully and Macca go OK.

Smuthy is just a qunt. I think it's because he came through a period of relative nay outstanding success for NZ over Aus in the mid to late 80s, while Doull, Rig and Macca have been consistently smashed as players (except in the odd JAMODI).

Smuthy finds it galling that as a player he could watch Paddles and Crowey smash us but as a commentator it's the other way around.

Yep, I think it is mainly smith's ott commentary that gives the impression of bias because the rest are no better or worse than ours

Orgasmic to hang dog is Smuthy's range.

Oops, now he's out too.

You are learning well...

at least JKG didn't waste his mad wizard skills on this game
