Sporting Woods

A dropped catch at the Canary Islands might be the moment that decides this whole match.Welcome to Simulated Online Cricket - a fake T20 league played on a cricket video game and called like it's the real thing. Regular Sporting Woods listeners: this is the cricket one.Round 1 rolls on at Municipality of Las Palmas Oval, where the Golden Nuggets host The Revolution. A routine chance goes down off Big Goss's hands mid-chase, and the whole game changes from there. The mullet duo of Colin de Grandhomme and Ishant Sharma (the golden mullet, if you're new here) do their best, but it's the drop everyone's still talking about by the final over.In this episode:- Tim and Luke, still reeling from last episode's tie- Stump the Boys debuts at halftime: an officially sanctioned (Michael's words) trivia segment- A detour into dips that nobody saw coming - guac, tzatziki, hummus, baba ganoush - plus Luke's 10kg of gravy powder- A review so dramatic it gets thermal vision- The well-priced family SUVs have been upgraded. They're family work vans now.- Every four and six brought to you by a sponsor. Astral Pipes are back. They still pipe.Listening, not watching? The review uses mock "thermal vision" and slow-mo replays on screen, all played completely straight. Michael is still broadcasting from his executive lounge set.Who do you reckon wins next time? Next up: the Brisbane Burners host the Golden Nuggets at The Burns Ward.New SOC episodes every Monday and Thursday.

The Dogs of Waugh open their flash new stadium. The budget Burners turn up to spoil it.Welcome to Simulated Online Cricket - a fake T20 league played on a cricket video game and called like it's the real thing. Regular Sporting Woods listeners: this is the cricket one.Season 4 kicks off at The Kennel, the Dogs of Waugh's brand new home ground (fan-voted, narrowly beating "The Water Bowl"). The defending champs have spared no expense. The Brisbane Burners have recycled their jerseys and sponsors from a primary school, picked a team that's mostly bowlers, and sent Ramen out to open the batting as a sacrificial "burner". What could possibly go wrong?In this episode:- Burners owner Michael, mimosa in hand, gets his own executive lounge courtesy of Commissioner Al Legedly. Totally unbiased.- Poetry Corner debuts at halftime with an original work, "ZZ Bottom" (that's Zed Zed)- Umpires Joel/Jolene and Willy Won't He, and Tim's ongoing battle to tell them apart- A boundary count-back rule SOC has proudly refused to update since 2019- Michael quits smoking mid-game, live on air- Every four and six brought to you by a sponsor. None of them are real. Astral Pipes: they pipe.Listening, not watching? Michael films from his own "executive lounge" set, mimosa in hand, holding a green SOC microphone covered in cricket balls. Team sheets and scores are on screen in the video version.New SOC episodes every Monday and Thursday.
