Yes Stuart, if Alex Carey is to only be remembered for the Jonny Bairstow run out, then he’ll be remembered for making an astute heads-up play, completely within the laws of the game, that helped Australia take a 2-0 lead, amidst a flood of tears from the whinging Poms in the crowd.
Which won’t happen, because Carey will also be remembered for his superior glovework to his English counterpart during this Ashes series, which is another major reason why Australia are 2-0 up.
On the other hand Stuart, you’ll be remembered for being as big a wanker on-field as your father was.
And speaking of the spirit of the game, who could forget this wonderful moment when Broady, who is never out in his mind, was only saved by Aleem Dar’s incompetence.
A moment which was summed up in song:
In fact, you know what I’ll remember you for Stuart, besides being a giant arsehole who was a very good player who gave Australia the shits?
Getting whacked for a Test Match RECORD 35 runs in an over by Jasprit Bumrah… funnily enough, today was the 1-year anniversary:

Unfortunately, the downside of when Stuart retires is that I won’t be able to get mad at the dumb crap he says, which will be disappointing, because Ollie Robinson’s 120km/h pies to go with his Wisden articles just aren’t doing it for me.
