Yes its crap, i missed my chance (and probably only chance) at a hat-trick coz an idiot fielder dropped a simple catch at mid on!!
What you only missed out on one
I have had a catch dropped at first slip (whilst on a hat-trick) on not one but two occasions.....I have choked on the 3rd ball of a hat-trick twice and in 2000/01 I actually achieved one
I still choked on that one (line wise) but I got the length right and bowled a yorker into the guys pads.....it would have missed leg stump easily but he got his pads in the way and it bounced onto the middle stump 
I went off !!! You should have seen me I STILL have the trophy because apart from a premiership it was one of the highlights of my cricketing career which spans 20 years !!! Now days my knees have given way and I umpire 1st Grade for the NDCA on the weekends
Back onto the subject though.......how good were those two run outs ?!? Fantastic !!!
LMAO matty and Richo! I would of been fuming if someone dropped a sitter on my hat trick ball! Oh that must have been gut wrenching 
GUYS what are your opinions on Shane Watson?
For a while the experts have been saying he is the next big thing in Aussie cricket but I don't think he works hard enough or has the desire to reach his potential. If he gets injured all the time does it mean he is unfit or unlucky?
Personally I think he is just cruising because a couple of years ago, I saw him the night before a state game going on a bender with 3 or 4 drop dead gorgeous blondes on his arms at a nightclub! It was something like 3 in the morning and I was thinking what the hell is that guy doing here? lol It was at Isobar for the Tassie guys who might know it.

I fail to see the problem with this? =P~ but my opinion of him he is very over-rated...Australia is looking for the next Steve Waugh, O'Donnell, Moody, and he just isnt it
Same about Watson - from an opponents point of view.
WTF were the poms doing those last 8 overs? After Freddie went out - no one swung the bat! They all tried dinky little sweeps and tucks. The aussies have been pounded in the last 10 overs just about all series by good straight hitting and they decide to wink it around??
I'm off to bed - go OZ - I wanna see a 3rd game....

Don't worry I was SPEWING !
On Watson.......I have done some reading on him and don't you worry he puts in ! I think his injuries are due to bad luck....he has been told to back off because he has been destined to be a cricketer all his life and tries too hard !
I personally hopes he makes it !
