Thank you so very much for your video! My son (with the long locks) was on stage during this performance with world renowned Eddy Vedder but the recordings which I have do not show him. Wow!!!

An absolute legend. Tough, talented, fair and disciplined. A great career

I love how blunt he is 😂. “Why the fuck did you kill 2 million people ?”

I wrote this piece about him for my book which is available on Kindle Amazon: Allan Border can reflect proudly on a playing, coaching and media career that has spanned five decades, during which Australia rose to the top, not just in the modern era, but across the game’s history. His pride should be all the greater as he lived through Australian cricket’s darkest age before helping reshape its fortunes. From the chaos in the mid-1980s, like George Washington 200 years earlier, he led his country out of mayhem and into a golden age. As with the first US President, he could depend on the other loyal founding fathers in David Boon, Merv Hughes, Dean Jones and Steve Waugh. These five men were the nucleus on which one of the strongest cricketing empires was built. After Kim Hughes’s tearful resignation in 1984, the hangover of the Packer fiasco, the Chappell-Lillee-Marsh-Thompson generation ending and losing personnel to an unsanctioned South Africa tour, Allan Border was appointed national captain amongst the disarray. The unhappy period continued, hitting rock bottom in a humiliating Ashes defeat in 1986/1987. I remember vividly his drained look after the loss. He was hurting but refused to walk away. Aided by lieutenants and a new coach, Bobby Simpson, plans were implemented, focusing on fitness and character. Training had rigour and purpose, those out of synch were discarded. Allan Border was central to the approach. He changed his persona to become tougher with peers and ruthless against opponents. The respect was unwavering. An indicative example was a public scolding of Craig McDermott in a county match during the 1993 Ashes. Allan Border made sure the fast bowler understood his shortcomings and responsibilities. He cooled relations with David Gower and Ian Botham, leaving niceties till series end. On the pitch no inch was given, a battle-hardened warrior from a grief-stricken time, now obsessed that incoming underlings would not endure the same pain. Thus the expectation that players never displayed warmth, as adversaries may see it as weakness and take advantage. The 1987 World Cup win was proof of the philosophy change and then three consecutive Ashes wins under his leadership cemented a place amongst the greats. He missed conquering The West Indies by two runs. Through the lows and highs of the team, personal performances were maintained. He averaged nearly 40 against the mighty Caribbean team, almost 60 versus Pakistan and 56 in Ashes contests. Durability, pugnacity and bravery were hallmarks of his batting. Mark Taylor, Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting took Australian cricket to unprecedented heights but their successes are because of the foundational influence of Allan Border. Fittingly there is an annual award bearing his name for the leading national player from the preceding 12 months. Greatness is when one faces adversity, changes the downward spiral and ascends the summit in glory. Allan Border is the embodiment of such a journey, a lesson for us all and testament to the benefits of hard work. Deservedly, along with Donald Bradman, the greatest of Australians.

What a champion!

When I think of Border his One-day Inn in late 80s at SCG v Windies when he Scored 127no of a 191 total batting first and we Won he Came in at 2/9 or so Boon n Wood Goooone! Even before this as a 10 year old I Could see so many times if it Wasn't for this Great Lefty we Would be Up Shit Creek Without a Paddle, That's BORDER da da da BORDER!Q

Hiding behind greats like chappell, Kim hughes for most part of his career and exploded into the scene thereafter on his own by sheer hardwork, a role model to look into. Hats off Allan.

A great player.

True Champion 👏👏👏

top man A B tough as old boots. Eh, and I'm a pommie. top man

Border was so bloody good. I’d love to have him in my all time Aussie team but Bradman, Chappell G, Ponting & Smith are my middle order.

Most boring captain, always played for draws, it wasn't until Taylor became captain that Australia became dominant.

Sir Alan border

Mr full of shieeeet

Amazing Nicholas

I’m keen to know how they went…did the government pull the finger out or did they screw the pooch and let other countries dominate the market (again).

My hero. RIP

God bless and save Eddie Vedder, the greatest ever, words can't describe his talent, never mind his caring and concerns etc to the wider, legend

Great player, tough as old boots. Reluctantly took captains role after Kim Hughes debacle and the rebel tours of early 80s which ripped the cricket community apart. Huge respect and I am an England supporter

RIP Nate. Thanks for your life's work.

Rest in peace, Nate.

RIP. Nate Thayer, the genuine article, in character and press.

There's colors on the street Red, white and blue People shufflin' their feet People sleepin' in their shoes But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them So I try to forget it any way I can Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world I see a woman in the night With a baby in her hand There's an old street light (near a garbage can) Near a garbage can (near a garbage can) And now she put the kid away and she's gone to get a hit She hates her life and what she's done to it There's one more kid that'll never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world We got a thousand points of light For the homeless man We got a kinder, gentler machine gun hand We got department stores and toilet paper Got Styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive

This guy should be on joe rogan

Is it possible to find beef consumers to pool their money to buy meat from you? Perhaps you can get a little more money then put on next step. One day at a time.

Border have brain in his hat and muscle in his bat

Eddie Vedder is so sad. This song was awesome but seriously this is morose lol. Neil makes this song fun even though it cuts hard to the heart.

GOAT HANDS DOWN

What a legend

A farmer or farm worker commits suicide every 4 days in Australia. 84% of all Australian grazing properties are not economically viable (ABARE). The odd thing is that Canada, USA and Russia all have droughts too. I wonder why Australian farms are so stuffed ????????????????? Red and Blue are two wings of the same bird. If you vote for either of them then you are part of the problem.

Breathtaking ❤️❤️❤️🎼🎸🎼🎼🎼🎼 Keep on keeping on, Eddie!

Border was a legend, took the reins of an Aussie side at the time when Aussie cricket was in downfall, he changed its fortunes through his leadership Won World Cup Won the Ashes Only the Frank Worrell trophy always eluded him, sadly his entire career coincided with the peak of windies cricket

Tough little bastard .great battles with the saffas .....could take it and give it even harder

haha, khung khiep qua di, agriculture visa ???

piss poor cricketer really

not good

background singers stole the show, and not mad about it in the slightest.

The kind of reception a great US President would receive from the White House staff on the completion of his term(1984-94), accomplishing fixing of the economy, stabilizing national security, bringing ease of diplomatic relations & having an incomparable personal integrity. As PM Bob Hawke had once said: Allan Border has currently the most difficult job on his shoulders than any other in Australia.

fucking dead people in the audience.

Fuck you willie !! I'm disgusted with you for supporting the ignorance the democrats stand for .. Your a disgrace to country music ..

I love Eddie Vedder 💓 a wonderful human being!! 😊🤘✌️

For a Rugby League Player, Lockyer is so GRACEFUL. Just like Roger Federer. And both a GENTLEMAN👍😍

Nate Thayer. He's a Hero

I cannot count the number of plants sent out by growers in the UK to me that are literally infested with fruit flies. It is time that the industries dealt with them properly, instead of being so delicate about how to treat them. It is ridiculous that this gentleman is prevented from distributing healthy plants, when genuine sellers of plants have no shame in shipping contaminated specimens. I have even bought compost from sellers, where you see the fruit flies/ Sciarid flies jumping out of the ventilation holes at the bottom of bags of compost. These things transfer like crazy, they need dealing with at source. I hope that they continue to expand and overcome the challenges, the farm looks wonderful, spectacular surroundings.

Can i buy the finger lime from you. I'm in singapore.

Border didn't announce before the Test it was going to be his last Test but a lot of people sensed it was going to be. Mark Waugh who despite scoring 113 not out allowed Border to exit first.

Welcome to DOOM TOWN

I just bought a tree at Sams Club in Florida. I’d never seen or heard of finger limes before . I’m exited to grow and taste it .

Allan Border great player & great captain.
