3rd ASHES TEST: @ Headingley, Leeds July 6-10, 2023

[Raiders_Premiers]

Literally just tapped the ball on the offside for a casual single with three runs to play with

Ffs

 

[Hutty1986]

Big derpy useless Boland would have dropped it anyway

 

[BunniesMan]

I just cannot fathom it. Even with 30 or 40 to go it was stupid. But when the runs needed is in SINGLE DIGITS why on earth is there anybody on the fence? How does anyone in our team rationalise that being the best way to get 3 wickets

 

[Chins get the wins]

Being a sports fan is weird.

Bust my gut working all week, then spend my precious free time in homebush watching a NSW cup level Rabbitohs side lose to the Bulldogs, followed by watching the Aussies squander a winning position and lose an Ashes test

I really should have just gone to the movies lol

Sorry about your upcoming GF loss bro

What an absolutely pathetic choke.

England now have some momentum. Great work boys

 

[Fangs]

Well done England. Have managed to keep the series alive.

Our batting in the second innings cost us. Labuschagne's dismissal was notably terrible.

Sorry about your upcoming GF loss bro

Ahh I see you are presuming we somehow get to and win a prelim

 

[Hutty1986]

Pathetic from Australia, they threw the Ashes away there. Remains to be seen what happens next, but definitely wouldn't be surprising if the pommy flogs won this 3-2.

f**k me I wouldn't want to be in the trenches with most of you blokes

 

[JokerEel]

Marnus hasn't scored a test 100 since The West Indies test December 8 2022...

Time for him to stand up

 

[some11]

The one innings we get stokes cheaply and go on to let bowlers win it. f**k off

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Oh well, they played well England. The collapse didnt help in the first innings and getting belted towards the end of England's innings.

 

[Chins get the wins]

We lost that England didn't win it. I'm 100% convinced we'll be sweet

You did this you putrid cretin

 

[Fangs]

As for fields and captaincy I can only assume LSD was slipped into Patty's weetbix. Likewise Stokes who prefers a traditional English breakfast.

We've had 3 close tests but both captains have been criminally sporting.

 

[BunniesMan]

f**k me I wouldn't want to be in the trenches with most of you blokes

Apt metaphor because the WW1 trenches were full of countless blokes who died because idiot commanders kept trying the same mindless failed tactics that failed over and over again under the delusion that they would magically lead to a different result.

Cummins keeping such a defensive field all day literally until it was unwinnable is unjustifiable insanity every bit as bad as sending waves of young men into no mans land in the war

100% our Batsmen failed and our bowling tactics were terrible.

You're mistaking blind faith with reality old m8. Will take a big effort to wrap this up after that.

The captain doesn't make most decisions. How people don't understand this is bizarre
