Where in the world is Hansie Cronje?
Hansie's Eleven (starring George Clooney as Hansie and Brad Pitt as Herscelle)
The South African job (Charlize Theron would have to be involved in the remake)
The Cronje Identity (Matt Damon)
Team South Africa: Corruption Police
Moses: Welcome to EOC. Not a bad job at all I must say. I especially like the involvement of Charlize Theron in this affair. Hansie's Eleven and the Cronje Identity sound like bestsellers.
hansie: the man who 'booked' his life for cricket...
The actual tag line is
The legacy of a hero, the story of a man

JRod: Truly gag-inducing. Are you going for the opening night in London?
Not sure how i get invited to that, as i hate born again christians far more than saffers.
come on man! i know he made a mistake--and he paid for it dearly--but that shouldnt blind us from appreciating him as a great cricketer, and a wonderful captain!
Pathan,
Thanks for the comment. I'm not sure if Hansie was a great captain or batsman but I'm not knocking his playing ability in this post. Just his judgment (which should have been better as a national captain!)
Cheers,
Samir
