England have been the better side in this match and to be honest I dont no what we can do.

The first innings we got lucky. We bowled ok, didnt have any real chances, just got wickets. England bowled great for the majority of our innings and were just unlucky.

Its nothing to do with Ponting, our bowling is just average. I know hes been our best bowler overseas recently but geez Hilfenhaus looks so pedestrian.... just slow and no real movement. Johnson was probably our most threatening actually, but still hardly troubling anyone. Siddle is just straight also.

Given England are most likely to get out of this, id actually believe for the first time Australia might do some change(s)

Australia choking on another fantastic winning position, Mitch slinging pies, Punter clueless with his field - all is back to normal after the highs of yesterday.

Why continue to defend ponting he has shown every game he doesnt have a thinking cricket brain, and still is named as captain.And people still blame other players instead of the one who is at fault its ponting.

GET BRETT LEE IN THE TEAM AND PUT HIM AS CAPTAIN NEXT TEST
