pretty ill-disciplined crap from the tail, if i was Clarke i'd give em a bit of a rip in the change room

Not really sure you can blame the tail at all....

oh no it wasn't their fault the score, but they did pretty much throw away their wickets rather than making them earn it

Very true that, but they can put the blame on the top order for not scoring. The bowlers did there bit rolling RSA for 225. Can't expect them to make the runs aswell.

Lyon took one of the catches of the century then dropped one much easier. Amla on 99 overnight

Whens Shane Warnes boy old enough to play?
We don't need another Warnie. Lyon is more than capable in the team at the moment.

colmullet

yeah i think Lyon has been pretty good this series, problem is finding a batting order that can withstand a little movement in a pitch, seems everytime we come across a pitch with something in it there's that feeling that we will be bundled out for <100

wtf? You two cray cray ^

Lyon has been okay/decent...

Exactly he has been OKAY

Warne = GREAT SUPERSTAR. Probably could've bowled SA out in Adelaide....

Lyon can't. Hence needing Warne.

Well this thread has gone quite quiet today. All I can say is that South Africa are showing why they are the number 1 team in the world. This batting is all class and an amazing innings.

Warne was a once in a generation player.

Saying that Australia needs him now is naive

it will be a long time before we find another Warne, comparing our spinners to him is pointless and not fair to the guys trying to the job, and i think hes doing his job fairly well.....better than the others that have auditioned over the last few years

Muttiah was same generation as Warne...

I reckon Stuey Mac was 100x better than any of our current spinners too.
