Top ten songs about Australia missing the semi finals
The latest top ten tracks from INCLUDE ME OUT
So it’s wild celebrations the world over as the Aussies get bundled out of the T20WC without making the finals. Gideon is not unpleased that the Aussies no longer get to malevolently lurk in the corner of a world tournament finals, where they’ve been a regular for a while.
Check out his piece on the world catching up with them if you haven’t already.
Closer to home theirs a bit of grim introspection for the Aussies; 'WHAT WENT WRONG?’ ‘WHY DID WE BOWL FIRST?' ‘WHO IS TO BLAME?’
So as we ponder the what ifs let’s smash our bat in the changerooms, stuff the pads and gloves into the toilet, turn the portable bluetooth player up to 11 and rock out some inspired self loathing via Pete & Gids selection.

The lyrics seems appropriate to the Aussie sides currently slump;
Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell, crash
I'm the last splash
I'll be your whatever-you-want
The bong in this reggae song
Please let us know any other tracks worthy of the INCLUDE ME OUT playlist in the comments.
Some rippers last week.
Thanks to everyone who’d played along so far!
Eminem, 'Marsh': "My name is Marsh and this world [cup] I'm out of it." The man's a prophet.
I love Fisher Classics, and have two of his works at home. But this one almost takes the biscuit! Brilliant!
