equatorWhile I was on test match sofa the suave one suggested that we play a game called come die with me. The idea being that you pick five people to come to your house so you can kill them.
Even though England were playing South Africa, Shane Watson seemed to make a few appearances.
Then I turn on the telly to watch Pakistan beat Australia and Watson is apologising to Asif for sledging him.
A quick search of twitter had many mentions of Watson as a dick, twat or idiot.
It seems that whether he does anything (which he often does) or whether he is just being himself, he just pisses people off.
Recently a Uncle Rupert publication said that Watson was easy to unlike because he was a good looking athletic talented blonde guy, and people hate.
That completely overlooks the fact that Brett Lee can be described the same way and few people hate him, even if they don’t think he is a good fast bowler.
Watson just has the cunt (or cuntox) x factor.
No matter what he does, he seems to piss someone off.
That is a special skill.
Some people may want Watson to stop pissing people off, but what fun would that be?
Watson should stay true to his natural self.
Even if that means people want to kill him in a hypothetical game, or if they think he is twat.
Whatever it is, keep it up Watson.
Without the likes of Ian Bell, Watson, Harbhajan and Sreesanth etc, us bloggers might have to actually do some research or come up with some original ideas to find something to write about.
Plus, it would be more boring without them.
Heres to another ‘Watson, get out shot’ after a drinks break. Or another run out in the 90’s.
Or another Ian Bell, get to 40+, look brilliant and then hit a long hop down the fielders throat or leave a straight one, doing nothing from Paul Harris.
Class!!

“Shane Watson idiot” gets 35,300 references on google!
What annoys me about Watson is the way he just has to react every time someone has a go at him. Can’t he just ignore it?
I think it’s Ponting’s fault. He is a whinging pre schooler and Watson looks up to him and loves him more than he loves his hairdresser, so of course he’s going to act like him.
Wait….no…..Watson….97!!!!
97!!!
Oh.. hahahahahaha…
i like him…
remember, my list contained just the boring cricketers…
bangar, chopra, katich, hussey, bell…
but had great fun listening in…
Ankit Mishra´s last blog ..and here we go again
Ah well, he gets out in the 90s …..again.
The facial expressions were priceless!!
I gues he is getting out in the 90s just for people to start sympathizing with him.
Dhananjay Mhatre´s last blog ..Two Biographies
Ok i am going to say something opposite of what everyone thinking.
May be Watson going to be next aussie captain and annoy JROD more.
Watson is Gemini ( dual-natured, elusive, complex and contradictory , unreliable , manipulators and Versatile ) and Rooster (good people skill).
I think Gemini part of watson is the one annoying Jrod.
For me watson is a child ..who cry for everything….the people i hate most is sreesanth , bhajji , Nel …anyone who showboats….and chokedulkar sachin (inflated stats).
Oh JRod, why is it that Jesus ain’t available when I’m finally gonna buy him? The Book Depository sez that stock’s finished! Pls let me know when stock comes back and I’ll purchase it!
Cricket Tragic´s last blog ..Beneath the beard lies a shrewd mind!
He annoys me too. Not as much as Dick Broad though. Is there any surprise he’s nicknamed Twatson?
Didn’t you read the comments on King Cricket’s article on Wisden? A lot of people like him. Shockingly.
When the Aussies come across a team that can catch, he won”t even be getting to the 90’s, it’ll be a string of 30/40’s just like Ian.
erm … no.
Short answer, but covers it all.
No, they don’t.
Dustbinner´s last blog ..Why, Punter, why?
Anybody see how he sarcastically applauded Asif ( the bloke who blew us away first innings) after Asif batted?
He is a graceless tool.
Yeah, Vim. I saw that. What a dick.
That’s fair enough – I vividly recall Asif sarcastically applauding one of the Australian batters during their innings. Straight back at him.
He’s a number 11, isn’t he?
Watson’s ideas of ’straight back at them’ always look so inappropriate. Is that what he wss doing to Gayle?
I like Watto after that innings, it had character, whodathunk he’d be the stability at the top of the order
Actually I like him, too. I don’t always like to follow the crowd.
Speaking of the JRod appearance on Test Match Sofa yesterday, have just uploaded a pic on my blog of the man himself in action!
SarahCanterbury´s last blog ..Mr http://www.cricketwithballs
i like him……And India would love to get their hands on an all rounder like him despite his childish behavior….
christopher poshin david´s last blog ..The Evolution of Gambhir
Lookin good, J-rod. I always imagined you as more of a Pamela Anderson. Also Twatto is a Twat. I read it on wikipedia so whoever liked him can now stop. I do like his pull shot so I’m submitting an application to CA and some mad scientists to isolate the pulling gene and insert it in Phil Hughes.
his mom loves him. probably.
Uncle JRod ur damn right…..as a pakistani supporter watson has pissed us off….with his 3 scores of 90 or more……no other australian batsmen seems as confident and in command on pitch as shane watson……i thought of him more as a bowling allrounder….dont u think hez under bowled in this test series?
I’ve yet to meet anyone who likes him.
Even his Mum and Dad looked disappointed when he got his maiden hundred.
I still cannot believe that Abdur Rauf dropped him.
The Watson 100 saga was beginning to get as funny as Shoaib Akhtar’s antics.

UncleJ,
I promise to love Twatto with all my heart if he falls in the late forties and late nineties whenever he manages to get into the forties or the nineties.
And Alex, you can fuck off and die. Even your mother hates you.
$%#@ you alex, and $%#@ your star signs. Keep at it though – it takes all kinds to make a world, and I must admit that reading these comments would be less enjoyable without your crap. But still, $%#@ you.
lol@Horatius
Horatious, Timothy are in my Pet ZOO,
Sachin blows even in his vacation.
Watson is more productive than swish every ball or dig the ground and jump in huges.
I love to hate cheaters and boasters and selfish stat whores. Watson is more of childish cry baby with some decent versatility. He almost look like he wants to impress someone or something always. He needs to understand he is not the MAN in the team. He is just another role player.
SLA whipped india today. Indian bowling really sucks. I do not what is this indian bowlers disease is , they get into the team with some lucky performance in domestic and lay egg every time once they in indian team. it will take 10-20 games for selectors to realize these bozo is useless. to get rid of RP singh too 30 games , sreesanth get rid of himself and again he will waste another 20 games and go back to his own monkey behaviou, zaheer khan does just enough to stay in the team. India have long tail as it start with jadeja,bhaji,khan,nehra and sreesanth. if they bowl well it is acceptable but i am not sure these monkeys bowling well.
I really think indians should start eating BEEF hearts , balls , steak and creatine monohydrate and hit the gym if they want to bowl fast.
Why does hughes batting look like he is digging the ground with pick axe and shovel tool. here is the tool image
http://www.gemplers.com/img/dig-pick-axe-151147.jpg
I have not watched Watson batting that much as it seems not interesting in anyway…there is no authority in his stroke except some brute force and lucky drops gets him to these 90s.
He is just incremental irfan pathan in that half baked skills in batting and bowling.
, he just does enough to keep him in the line up for another 100years.
$%#@ you alex, and $%#@ your zoo crap –
I would like to mention an analogous situation: There’s a monkey in a cage doing weirdass shit, and passersby stand and gape at it. The monkey thinks “I own these guys’ a$$”.
Lol at your analysis of Watson. Seriously, I said this on another thread, but reading it all makes me want to say it again:
You see, maybe this can explain what sense means –
If you have a set of monkeys typing for a finite time, it is very very very very very improbable that the result will be meaningful by any common definition. Of course, like you say, we could keep our minds open and say what the monkeys type is one of billions of possibilities which we shouldn’t discard – but the human mind being of a finite capacity, we tend to dismiss such stuff as rubbish.
Hence when we restrict what sense means, we need to do proportionally more effort to stay within that definition. (In information theory, we would call that a measure of negative entropy). You seem to be unwilling to put that effort when you type, so that’s why I say $%#@ you
You are right, proper twat
The Village Cricketer´s last blog ..Smith murders England
Please would everyone respect the rightful vitriol that JRod has for Watson in that he is opening the batting very close to a time where all of us under 30 didn’t really understand how the team could be fallible. And his figures are good. I think of Kevin Spacey’s character in Seven. “Only in a world this shitty could we believe he was an opening batsman and keep a straight face”
Pick one JRod, your book or watson.

Hmm no.
Hussey just booked his ticket for the next ashes series…
@ Cam – “Shane Watson idiot” gets 35,300 references on google!
Thats amazing. It is more refs than ‘Sepp Blatter idiot’ gets, and I thought he would be miles ahead.
‘Kamran Akmal idiot’ might make it soon as well!
Cricket Betting Blog´s last blog ..All over in Cape Town
Who reckons Oz will get 200 if the Hussbot stays in? Here’s hoping slippery hands Akmal keeps up the shit work…..I feel a bit sorry for him actually, poor little guy.
On the Watto…..I wouldn’t share a beer with him.
Pak’s performance is more irritating than watching a 5 month old toddler learning get up on it’s feet and walk. Good luck to whoever is watching the game.
coinbox.
I guess it’s a matter of perspective.
Does anyone like Alex?
Get off his back bozos, and lets abuse Watson and Pointless, worthy of ridicule in every sense. Pointless the master strategist now claims it was a good decision to bat first.
Reminds me of Gilchrist boasting: “How do you like the declaration now, Tony?” after Sydneygate. The end justifies the means.
UncleJ,
your blog’s caugh herpes, clap and crabs rolled into one just like Alex’s mom. You should have that looked at.
Uncle Jrod – Watson behaves like a cuntox, but he seems hell bent on proving you wrong. He is the perfect flat track bully – moves on the front foot straightaway, and can pull like a beast without going back. Now only if the ball swung every match, or atleast moved in off the seam – with his front foot stretching all that way he would be a dead duck – kinda like the ashes.
PPL, just ignore what Alex says. He clearly enjoys riling up everyone and might be laughing his bollocks off seeing y’all taking him seriously.
Just think of him as a spammer!
Cricket Tragic´s last blog ..Damn you, you bloody idiotic batsmen!
Watson bats at number one, bowls first drop and fields at slip. He’s the kind of cricketer you’d create on Shane Warne ‘99 (PSONE) without going over the top. I hate you for having a crack at him, but I love everything about you and your views. I guess you’d call me a reasonable Shane Warne ‘99 creation (PSONE). Realistic, yet pissweak when it comes to the crunch moments.
All my brovin’
Ed
Ed, Would you make him look like an Aryan and behave like a fucktard on the computer, because that is the main difference. Never doubted his talent (other than for opening the batting).
Hor, no idea what happened, but we seem to be ok now.
Me spammer No.
My target is only sachin fans. Others i do not care shit. They do not exist.
Because sachin fans are obsessed with this fake god…fake shit fake dumpshit sachin the coward , whore…midget.
So it is fun to poke at sachin fan’s eyes to see how they react.
No one can be GOD except sehwag. As long as he bats like crazy man on steroids. if not we will find another GOD.
Sachin was never a GOD , he was always a SELFISH RAT!.
I love to hate Twatson. He is an exceptional cricketer but, thankfu;ly, he appears to be a real dickhead too. If he was a good sort as well as being the cricketer he is – it’d be difficult to stomach.
I first saw what a knob he is through his bowling. He would get a number 10 or 11 out caught on the boundary – and jump around like he’d done something good. Idiot. Then, in India a couple of years back, he gave Gambhir a send off after after he had reamed Twatson et al for over 200 runs – including bringing up his ton by charging and smashing him for 6 over mid-on. Cocksmoker!
I was at a charity night during the Ashes hosted by Ponting and my friends and I met Watson and chatted to him. He was extremely friendly and utterly charming, as was his girlfriend, and we all liked them both enormously. I’m sorry he’s not English and in our team.
SarahCanterbury´s last blog ..mr cricketwithballs in “normal” pose!
Sarah, Hitler loved his dog, and was a brilliant orator and a gifted artist, apart from his more publicised talents. We wish he was English too, Churchill and him would have made such a swell pair.
hitler was a shit artist. just like Watson.
Oh come on jogesh99 – Surely you aren’t suggesting an analogy between Hitler and Watson.
getamatchfix – Here are some of Hitler’s paintings – http://www.sharenator.com/Paintings_of_Adolf_Hitler/
I rather like the one of the cocker spaniel.
Timothy, nope, just one between Hitler and Churchill.
getamatchfix, you can drop the “artist.”
@jogesh99 – Ah! A misunderstanding.
@Sarah – By and large, cricketers are polite in their interactions with the public. I’ve met a lot of the Saffers, they were all very nice guys – Smith and Nel included. W.r.t the post, Watson with all his tantrums makes for good TV, but you always catch yourself hoping that someone puts the bully in his place…
Timothy, to clarify further, here’s Watson at the Church of Haydn

Sarah, I agree, I’ve barged in on both Yardley and Wright dining in restaurants, at different times when they were coaches, and both were very cordial. On the other hand I found the Indian players very shy, and so, appearing aloof.
