Dustin martin 2017 the best season by an afl player in history he is without a doubt the best finals player the game has seen. May not be the best player ever but 2017 untouchable
A Couple of head hunters from SANFL not included here in the VFL (AFL) clips are Neil (Knuckles) Kerley and David (Grave Danger) Granger were fairly nasty, Granger broke two legs in the first quarter once
Sorry mate your so enthusiastic so I hate to pull you up but the act of cleanly catching a ball that is kicked more than 15 metres is a mark and not the guy who caught it lol. It's funny because I know a mark in us slang means a gullible fool who falls for a scam.
I never get tired of seeing this clip. I've driven the circuit at the legal limit, and it stuns me that drivers hit this at the speed they do during the big race.
Cricket batting techniques explained to a Americans. Oh boy! When a bowler (pitcher) runs in and delivers (pitches) a ball from 22 yards away, which is travelling at 95 mph, the batter has four options: He can either take evasive action which means he'll be seeing his family tomorrow or he can let it go through to the wicket keeper (catcher). He can also block the ball to protect those three sticks in the ground called wickets, without scoring any runs. He's final option is to belt the leather and lacquer off a cricket ball and score a few a few runs .
Every team usually has like 3 or 4 specialist bowlers in their lineup. So of the 11 players, usually at least 4 are specialist bowlers. In T20 cricket, the limit is 4 overs per bowler, so the recommended way of doing it is to have 5 bowlers bowl 4 overs each. In one day international cricket, the limit is 10 overs per bowler, so you would by default have 5 bowlers bowl 10 overs each. Of course, this all depends on the captain of the team and what strategies he wants to go for etc. but that is generally the rule of thumb. In Test Cricket, there are no limits, so you bowl as many bowlers as you like for as many overs as you like. Again, it all depends on the strategy and stuff.
Doesn't seem to matter how many times you hear this tears fall. Our young men were keen to answer the call to arms from Britain!! Many put their ages up, so boys as young as 13 left our shores. We will remember them. Thank you ANZACs❤
They haven't got warning lights on this track, at least not beyond pit lane, maybe they've got some there - but everywhere else around the track they have marshals stationed with flags. There's a clip in this video of a blue Ford with Pepsi Max livery on the doors sort of pinballing it off the walls as he goes through the esses - if you look closely you can see the marshals jumping to safety down the mountain because the tail of the car was sliding toward them along the top of the concrete barrier. They've since put stronger fencing up on that section of the track. The driver in that crash broke his left femur and right wrist in that one too, was nasty to watch live.
What this doesn't highlight is this is a Mountain. Steep Up, Across the Top then Steep Down Fast. Been watching it since it was the Hardie Ferodo. Bond, Moffatt, Goss.
Hi Johnny love your reactions Maybe you could check out NRL especially state of origin , the NRL kicked off their Season in Vegas this year and are doing it again next year .
Solomon was a thug an enforcer but had football ability and capacity - if he didn't change the game with thuggery then he role was worth nothing. The thing with Byron and Jeff was personal - Noongar Shit!
Why can Americans never undertsand the difference between a side and an end? The sides of the wicket have no function in cricket. The batsmen run between the two ends. Also, please use the cricket terminology. It will take about five seconds for a person of average intelligence to pick them up. Even an American who wears a backwards cap indoors should manage it in twenty.
At 5.24, you wouldn't intentionally come off there at near 300km/h, so you would be at a disadvantage. Hopefully when you re-enter the track its clear. (Side note, that was 2007, earlier in the Race, Rick Kelly ended up off there, nearly rolled the car and nearly took the nose off the Craig Lowndes car)
I know all about it mate.. my Father was only 17 when he fought Rommel's panzars in the Middle East WWII, then onto New Guinea & Borneo (where he contracted malaria) to fight & defeat the Japs. As my beautiful Mother said, the lovely boy that went to War, never came home. My Grandfather fought on the Western Front WW1, was gassed, lost an eye due to the gassing & had terrible stomach problems all of his life. The only person who looked after these two brave, frontline foot soilders was my beautiful Mother.. if not for her... God Rest Her Soul .. my brave Grandfather & his brave son (my Father) would have become just colatrial damage. LEST WE FORGET
Johnny I love your content mate, huge respect for you- as an Australian who is passionate about AFL (go Cats!) and cricket I am loving the journey you’ve been on with your cricket content. What I respect most is that you own it when you get it wrong, and I’m so glad you kept giving Cricket a chance. I’m sorry for all the fools who talk crap about baseball, just shows their ignorance. Did you ever manage to watch a T20 Cricket match? Hope you stick with this as it’s a great sport just like baseball, hockey, AFL and NFL, all of which are my favourite sports too. Huge respect for you mate - hope the Lions can make the finals and keep the Pies out of the 8!
If you want a few thousand Aussies to watch your RU-vid clip, just put the word 'Bathurst' in the title and we'll all show up. It's a great day out (if you are not prone to sun-stroke) I love it up the top of the mountain, watching these roaring beasts coming up and screaming past you. You can get the bus down at the end of the day and that drives down the downhill part of the track and gives you a tiny idea of what the drivers are trying to survive. Book your holiday and book your accommodation a year or 2 in advance for this one. Saw open class sidecars there once too. That was a special and awesome sight.
When a ball is being caught, it is considerd "alive" until the umpire is convinced that it is fully under the conrol of the fielder. At that point it is dead until it is next bowled. If the ball is caught close to the boundary, and the fielder steps over the boundary while holding the ball, the batsman is awarded six runs, and he is not out. That is why the fielder will throw the ball in the air while he gets himself back inside the boundary.
Also AFL in spirit comes from an indigenous game , it was then modified to become a winter sport to keep cicketers fit. Since 1858 our game has grown to the behemoth it now is. Has to be my favourite sport , followed by NFL..😁
6 balls is 1 over.the batsman change ends when the run between wickets.1 run they change ends .they can keep running until the fielder gets the ball . Otherwise, they can be run out
Johnny maybe cover "Peter Brock describes a lap of Bathurst 1986". Usually when I post a video link my post disappears so I followed up with the title for you to search.
2.49 1 sub is for substituting an injured player who needs medical attention and cannot play the game anymore. (very rare occation). 3:52 The score 43-2 means the current batting team (KXIP) scored 43 runs with two batter out at this point in the game. 3:52 Its not 23 to 11. The score VOHRA* 23 SAHA 11 means the current batter Vohra scored 23 runs and Saha scored 11 run at this point in the game. They are both from the same team. 4:04 The batting team sends two batter out of 11 in the field to bat. One is facing the ball from pitcher/batter and is known as striker and the other one is known as non-striker/runner. The rest of the team are in the bench. The next batter will come to play if any 1 of the batter is out so that there are always 2 batter. 4:36 51 OFF 30 means Saha scored 51 runs from 30 balls 4:47 The batsman cannot bat alone means someone needs to be on the non-striker/runner zone. There is only one player that faces the bolwer/pitcher. The non-striker is indeed hanging out there in the non-strker zone. 5:46 the catcher catches the ball and is trying to (hit the wicket and) take the bails off the wicket in hope that the batter that is running that part has not reached yet. Its always safe to take the bail out so that you can make the batter out. If you dont do that then you could miss getting the batter out if he has not crossed the line. 6:01 199-4 means the current batting team made 199 runs and got their 4 batters out. 6:03 its not 115 to 0. It means Saha scored 115 runs (in 55 balls) and Miller scored 0 runs in 0 balls 8:22 You are right. The bowler/pitcher hit the wicket and thats why he is out 8:22 There are no strikes. If the bowler/pitcher hits the wicket (even in the first) ball you are out. You will not be playing in this inning again. 9:20 What was the batsman doing? He was tring to run to score the run. The fielding team caught him in the middle and could not come to the safe zone and now he is out. 9:52 What wickets are those? Looks like the wickets in the bowler's end. It does not matter which wickets are these. Both the batter needs to be inside the crease to be not out in their respective end. In this case one of the batter is not inside the crease most likely while running between the wickets. The fielding team caught the batter and took the bails out and he is out. 10:29 Thats not where he started. Both the striker and non-striker start from their respective crease. Looks like he is on the non-striker end. He started to run to the other end when the striker batter hit the ball. The ball went directly to the fielder. The fielder threw the ball to the wicket and did a direct hit and got the bails out before the batter could safely come to his crease. Thats definately not where he started. His buddy is not in the picture. He must be inside his own crease. 11:38 The batter knew the rule. He had no chance to return to the crease in time. He went too forward to hit the ball but he missed and had not enough time to return to the crease. 12:27 The other batsman's job is not be out by being in the crease. His other job is to run to the other crease so that they can score a run when the ball is in play after the striker batter hits the ball. Both the batter needs to run to the other crease to make 1 run. 14:49 Only 1 batsman is out at one time. If one of the batsmen is out then the other batsman will replace the batter who is out. His partner is not out. 15:17 One by one the fielding team needs to take the 10 of the 11 batsmen out. 15:28 What sides? When all the 10 batters are out then the inning is over. The batting team will field and the fielding team sends two batter to bat. Rest of the batter will wait for their turn to bat. 16:47 The illegal pitches are wides and no-balls. If the bowler does illegal pitches then the bowling team needs to redo the ball. 16:57 There is no concept of Bullpen in cricket. Another bowler comes in and continues to deliver 6 balls. The current batsmen are still in the game and not out yet. 17:33 Each team does not bat 20 times. It means the fielding/bowling team has to pitch/bowl 20 overs (20 * 6 ball = 120 ball total). 17:56 5 days of 1 match that has 2 innings each. 19:14 If one batsmen is out then he cannot bat in that inning. 10 batsmen out of 11 players in the team. 19:21 At this point in the game the other team needs 39 runs off 24 balls left. 39 is not the score they have already scored. It is the runs that they need to make at this point going forward. 19:49 They won by 3 wickets mean they beat the score with 3 players still to bat.
Freedom aint free. As an Australian, massive respect for the review. The sentiment is largely of our involvement with the Vietnam war but works for other countries and wars as a whole. Australia has been with Uncle Sam since WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and several others. An anti war song, but never anti veteran. Side note - huge Fremantle Dockers supporter, thanks, from Perth, Western Australia.
