Pura Cup Final Thread

[Brissy Bulldog]

Go the mighty Bulls !!.

It should be a great final.

Personally, I hope the curator prepares a wicket akin to the Bruce Highway and we can bat for 5 days !. There is also rain predicted.

Go the blues.

With talk of Brett Lee coming back mate, Im hoping the Bruce highway is the futhest thing from Kevin Mitchells mind buddy.

 

[Dawgfather]

Go the blues.

Is Harbahjan Singh playing?

 

[cljunior]

Go the Blues, Lee or no Lee, I'm hoping for a good old fashioned QLD beating!

 

[klvn]

blues rule!!!

we dont need lee... we got to the final without him for most of the season so it wont matter whether we have him or not.....

Go the Blues, Lee or no Lee, I'm hoping for a good old fashioned QLD beating!

Looks like thats on the horizon.

 

[(((((SMACK)))))]

Long way to go yet. The Blues have hinted on crumbling themselves on occasions this season!

 

[PARANoIR]

Blues were very very lucky. That can be called nothing but a fluke, no one wouldve backed MacGill and Brackan to face out Bichel and Noffke.

 

[habs]

Is Harbahjan Singh playing?

Yeah, on the wing for the Cowboys.

Great win by the baby Blues. I thought we were gone though. It was great listening to it on the Radio!

 

[Brissy Bulldog]

After the disappointment of last year, I thought I would find this thread and revive it.

Bulls 3/584 at the end of day 3 - a lead of 240 !

I hope they bat on to score more than 710. That is what the Vics scored against us in the first innings of the 2004 final.

Way past 710!!!!! Can they reach 1000 runs???? I hate Victoria, so this is a great victory for QLD!

Does this prove enough to the Aussie selectors that Watson can replace Andrew "bad boy, i cause lots of troubles and stir fights with opposition captains" Symonds?

 

[Brissy Bulldog]

I was out there today and saw Watson bring up his 200.

There was only a small crowd, but gee they were funny. They were really giving it to the Victorians. Lewis was copping it big time. Some very funny stuff.

Its great to be a Queenslander.

Beautiful one day, 6/900 the next !

 

[habs]

Atleast Jim Maher supports the ex-premiers.

 

[bulldogs_chick16]

Go Qld ...Shane Watson is awesome iam very proud of him

 

[matt]

[Brissy Bulldog]

Woohooo !!!! The Bulls win.

It feels pretty good after losing 3 in a row. Especially the heartbreak of last year.

Go Bulls !!
