Never go out of your way to upset a champion - they will always have the last laugh.

Deano was my favorite as a kid, especially being a Victorian - but that was really dumb :D RIP Deano

Back in the dressing room, Deano must've got a mouthful from his team mates that day for sure.

At that stage Australia were leading the test series 1-0.
Lost it 1-2 with Ambrose, after wrapping up the ODI finals, taking 19 wickets in the last two tests.
Soooooo good.

Deano was a great entertainer. I admired how he stuck to his instincts and didn't follow others. He had theories, and the courage to act on them. For better or worse. RIP.

I just saw Deano passed away in the paper and I looked up this as the first thing. No regrets. RIP Deano. A lot of great childhood memories.
