Hadn't even realised it was on. Watching Nigella rubbing her giblets with oil on catch-up TV. I ain't turning to another channel till that's done.

A Thursday night is no time for it to be shown (SPotY that is).

Can't see beyond Cook, McIlroy and Donald TBH as a 1,2,3 - not sure what order though.

Cook was a major part of the team's success but Strauss was the engineer. Captain of the first side to win in Australia for twenty odd years and then smash the fook out of the Indians to become the best in the world. If it's not him it's a travesty.

Speaking from experience, the 400m hurdles is the hardest event physically at a track and field meeting. Greene should be in with a shout for top 3.

Possibly since they dropped the javelin catching event in 224 BC following the death of Heracles "the Hedgehog" Papadopoulos.
