[QUOTE="Prestwick, post: 172584"] Again, to which the England team would look bemused and say, "so what?" Other teams tried that with Jonah Lomu and most times they got steamrollered. Also, I'm sure this has been tried many a time in League and there hasn't been a sensational case which has come up. Yet. I'm still not seeing any evidence to show that this is [i]the[/i] cunning and devastating psychological hammer blow that you're trying to make it out to be. The Ponting/Harminson reference is so stunningly simple that only Lora would fail to fathom its meaning, so I'm shocked that it has flown over your head! Ponting, the Captain of the Australian Cricket team, would suggest that Stephen Harminson who is a bowler (i.e. the guy who throws the ball at the batsman a dozen times or so a time) would "not be very good at batting" (i.e. hitting the ball) and so he would suggest that "we try and bowl at him to make life difficult for him." The retort would be "well no f***ing **** sherlock, of course he can't bat! Thats why he is a superb bowler!" [/QUOTE]
