I love how we gave them hope, then yanked it away.

Perfect.

Happy for Boland to take the final wicket. Bowled well without reward until now.
Carey Motm?

As I predicted after the Perth test, 5-0 is still on the cards (even with the injuries players such as Lyon/Smith/Cummins have been battling, even fielding 2nd string bowlers such as Neser and Doggett, not to mention the poor form of players such as Green and Inglis).

Australia should've won by A LOT more if they played to their full potential. The Head-Carey partnership in the 2nd innings was the difference, having built a mountain too high for England to climb by the time the 6/38 batting collapse occurred yesterday morning.

Just had a look at the weather forecast. First four days of the Boxing Day Test seems good. High chance of heavy showers on day 5:

Let's hope the MCG pitch is nothing like the abomination that was dished out in 2017 (which cost the Aussies any chance of a clean sweep)

I know the pommie fans expect better but their team took that chase a long way under the circumstances. Could’ve been a totally different result if they’d caught head on 99.

having said all that. 3-0 f**k off ya dogs.

Watching us wipe the floor with the poms 5-0 in 2014 into a Rabbitohs premiership was the peak of my sporting supporter life

LeedsRhino didnt even bother popping his head in this test! Pissweak

 

[85 Baby]

N.I.D

Excellent test match. Punters got their money's worth. A good message to our groundsmen to produce flatter pitches than they have been in recent times - we don't need green tops, this changed Kooka ball with pronounced seam does enough to keep an even contest

That was the best of them all. Especially after hearing all those ex pommy players pumping up how great they were going to be. Strauss talking how we fear them now was the best.

There's a different universe out there where Workington Town doesn't hire Ged Stokes and his son is an NZ player instead of an England one.

I'm glad we are in this reality and get to see that anguish on his face.

 

[Sphagnum]

Haven’t seen leedsrhino since stumps on day 1 in Perth. Hope she’s ok.

Bad afternoon to be a beer in Adelaide with Trav on the warpath.

Perfect.

Once again, following on from the magnificent T20 shot Harry Brook attempted off Lyon yesterday, Jamie Smith also had a brain explosion of epic proportions just before the lunch break.

If Craig Bellamy was the coach of the England team, he'd be having an absolute fit at those dismissals.
