Clear catch MT, fingers under the ball.

Marcus carrying on like usual

And BTW Weatherald not up to test standard, clueless and poor footwork

Clear catch?
I’ve watched it 100 times and still can’t work it out

What ever happened to benefit of the doubt for the batsmen

I would have been spewing if I was Marnus as well

Soft call was out, so if the video ump deems it is a catch  then it's a catch

Watching on the big screens at the MCG his fingers were under the ball so clear catch

The ball hit the grass every time I watched

Don’t know how anyone can watch that and think “clear” either way

Weatherald disappointing. Wouldn't mind if they tried that Kellaway, he's doing well in Shield.

Marnus I think needs to go despite great fielding.

Ussie ordinary but at least solid in Radelaide.

Green very ordinary, can't believe they didn't play Webster instead.

Guys like Nesser, Richardson etc...they're only getting games because Cummins and dare I saw Hazelwood are injured.

And I forgot to mention I had Tom Stewart and his mates sitting in front of me most of the day

Did anyone watch the Heat v Strikers game last night?

Although outfield , the catch was basically identical to Marnus’ dismissal

Given not out

Yes I saw it and like the commentators I thought it was a fair catch.

They (commentators) were genuinely surprised the soft call was over turned

So, I take it you whacked him from behind & while he was passing out you cooly whispered in his ear, "Prestia sends his regards, Mr Nice Guy!"

Am I right?  You just forgot to post it ... right?

Or did you at least tell him he should be in prison for stealing Vlastuin's AA award at least 2-3 times?

Didn't speak to him

He was very quiet, can't say the same of boorish mates

Everyone I’ve spoken too that knows him say he’s a champion bloke

The hatrid is ridiculous

As I said he was quiet, no issue with him.

His mates on the other hand... drunk, boorish and abused some English fans who were excited that their team finally showed some fight

Wasn’t referring to your post, more the general site consensus

He's overrated and the hit on Prestia was deliberate IMO.

That's about it.

I don't think I've seen anything that would be considered hatred.
