wtf are peeps thinking these 2 sides can contrive a draw even with 80+ overs lost in normal time (which is a worst case imo), some of which can be made up. Dry pitch, swing, reverse, Oz dont wanna be here, 2-0 down, I could go on......Draw 2nd fav, ROFLLES......... my book reads 1.4 Eng, Aus 2.9, Draw whateveryouwant
Hasn't been heard from since, the MUG has probably gone back under his rock

Ted speaks a lot of sense. IMO..
We don't always get it right, as was glaringly evident with SwingingPick's spoutings at Wimbledon.
Maybe they share the same rock...

I might add that SwingingPick's timing of this post shows what a complete bellend the fella is.
id like to bet twotonted has made a few bob over the years.
always thought he talked a lot of sense. everybody gets carried away at times with over-confidence.

From what I've read from the two posters TwoTonTed is someone who's opinion I'd be interested in. OP not so much
Draw whateveryouwant
That does not constitute any sense I've ever witnessed. Sense would be saving money for a rainy day. A rainy day...

these were his match views, which we may all differ on from time time. his weather views should be taken seriously. top man
I was surprised when I read Ted's comment when originally posted. He is normally astute, and my reaction FWIIW was, a poor attempt at ramping, and most unlike Ted.
TTT is a very good poster.
What he expressed above was an opinion - it's quite ridiculous that you should label him a mug for this.
SP - I presume you are right all the time - and if this were actually true why are you reading the forum?

I wouldn't accuse TTT of ramping and for one am glad that he posts (and tweets) his opinions. He certainly wasn't alone in favouring a result and shouldn't be singled out as one to be wary of.
If anything we should be wary of everything we read on here. If we do follow someone else's opinion however, rather than look for scapegoats when we lose, we should ask ourselves not why they made a mistake but why we made the same mistake.

No one can be correct all the time, the law of averages in probability theory dictate that even the most successful trader will get it wrong occasionally. 
My word of warning, comes after what must be regarded as a flippant view by TTT. In cricket, match views must be founded upon weather views, since the weather can often be such a determining factor for an outcome in a match, as we most recently witnessed in this third test of the Ashes series. Moreover, ignoring even the smallest chance of weather likelihood information, by not taking weather insurance -- in the form of a draw in this instance -- furnishes this forum with a very poor view indeed, and why I have signalled him out as one to be wary of in the future.
If the forum considers the view: Draw whateveryouwant to be an astute form of opinion at a time when various points-of-view suggested at least some loss of play through inclement weather involvement, in what is a wet area of England -- then perhaps those individuals deserve to be included in their own MUG thread.

Anybody that follows (or even thinks of following) what anybody on here says with cold hard cash (unless they've robbed a bank) needs sectioning.
shocker this....thats his style...he got it wrong....move on...
I think it is a bit strong to issue a warning on TwoTonTed
expressing an opinion even is it is wrong is not a crime
there are plenty of serial rampers or even misguided people who keep pushing their opinion in the hope it changes the game or odds.
personally I think you should close down this board.
