Sledging

Sledging or "Mental Disintergration" as it is also known is the tactic of talking to players on the opposition side (particularily batsmen, as taking on a whole team in the field is never a good idea) with the objective of destroying either their concentration or their confidence/self esteem. Sledging is practised in a large way by the Australian Cricket Team, but most International teams partake in sledging. Sledging can be merely an opposition player talking constantly to the batsman, but has mostly become known as players swearing and questioning their lineage.

Rod Marsh to Ian Botham
RM: "So how's your wife and my kids?"

Thanks to my alarm I was inadvertantly sledging all morning.

sledging

the intense and delibitating feeling after you take an ecstasy tablet, before you 'come up'. During this time, you can feel like you're going to die, and often need to sit down. This very strong feeling goes away after about an hour, and then you 'come up', sometimes very intensely.

After I took that pill, I was sledging badly, but then came up like a rocket!

sledging

To fall asleep at a party before the party as finished.
Also you can use it as 'to sledge'; a person who is sledging is a 'sledger' and someone who is sledging is said to be 'sledged'

sledging

Sledging or “Butt Skiddies” is the term given to the act a dog carries out when it has itchy hindquarters, mainly from worms. The act involves the dog lifting its hind legs above its shoulders and dragging it’s rump along the ground with its forepaws.

"Oi!! Stop that frigging dog sledging his arse up the carpet, Christ, look at the mess he's made, chuck the dirty bastard outside!"
