    I know some of you blokes feel strongly about sport celebs turning pro later on. But I don't mind it. He's a likeable personality and he'll sell tickets. Might have to have Flintoff vs Hollioake. They flip a coin to see who has the first punch. Tony Greig can try to stick a key into the canvas:D

    I was going to say Who? as you did not explain who this is and why we should care. I know this is specifically the Australian forum and most here do not need an explanation, but navigating from the main page of ESB, I had no clue. For those less informed, my Wikipedia summary: 34 year old, right handed, oft-injured, former cricket player.

    I think most of us know Freddie from the back to back losses against the Poms for the ashes. He never really struck me as a super athletic type playing cricket but I dont think his hyping himself to be the next ali.

    Wait a minute, could this be boxings don bradman :yep
