Brett Lee Pig Handler?

I have removed the reference that says Brett Lee was the a pig handler in the movie babe. On IMBD there are four listed Brett Lees. Two of them seem to be him, but can we verify that he was the pig handler? The reference to the Brett Lee in Babe does not contain any other information about him, unlike the Changing Rooms episode and a hosting job he has done. Even if it was Brett handling the animals, is it relevant as an outside interest? (DavidMSpeed 19 February 2006)

I think it's notable if he was, but I doubt it was. Lee would have been about 18-19 at the time of filming? Rogerthat ^Talk 11:07, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Issue on page

Something appears wrong with the batting style on the page.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Miss coolgal (talk • contribs) 09:53, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Faster than Akhtar

The line although Lee is said to bowl consistently faster spells than Akhtar and is considered by many batsmen as the faster of the two. [2] in the lead had a fact tag which has now been replaced by a link to a Telegraph article. I can't see anything in the article which corroborates that.

It is currently a weasel word. Even if some batsmen did say that an opinion should have no place in the lead of the article. It is a fact that Akhtar has bowled faster than Lee and the rest are all points of view and impressions and opinions. If you look around long enough, you'll probably find 'somebody' who considers Harmison, Bond or even Sami or Mohammad Zahid as the 'fastest bowler'. Include such opinions in the main text but not in the lead. Tintin (talk) 05:09, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What's with all this crap?

This article was flowing nicely before all this helter-skelter editing! The article is all over the place. IMO, the older version was much better.
