"The Ashes starts tomorrow!"


Recommended Posts

well itd make the rest of the series more interesting.

 

the lads are doing well this morning, but you get the feeling that if one wicket goes down then the rest will follow for about 30 runs.

Hope not that would be boring, England really needs to win one to keep it interesting.

I think this English team has a win in them. It's not that they didn't play well. The Aussies were hell bent on getting the Ashes back.

Well done boys.

Now lets all watch the English press turn on them (the pomms) like a pit of vipers!

A 5-0 win to Oz wouldn't be boring to me at all! Especially after the Poms talked themselves up as being the best team in the world after they won the Ashes in 2005. No, 5-0 would be very, very entertaining from my perspective and most Aussies I would have thought

I guess that would be a change from another country constantly talking themselves up.

A cricket tour in Australia would be the most delightful period in one's life, if one was deaf.

The Aussies try to present a tough guy image, but this present generation are a bunch of cissies.

The only time an Australian ever walks is when his car runs out of petrol.

lol.gif That tony greig one is is a bit rich! Was funny seeing him in the commentary team going on about the Aussies and the poms at the start of the tour and then getting progressively more depressed as we showed our sissyness and stormed to a 3-0 series lead!

Warneys retiring at the end of the Ashes! Huge loss to Aussie cricket and cricket in general. He'll be lapping up the adoration at the G on Boxing day. That will be worth seeing.

5-0! What an awesome series by Australia. That is just a fantastic result for the farewells of Warnie, Pidgeon and JL. Those 3 champs will be sorely missed. Who says a 5-0 result is boring? I've loved every minute of this series. clap.gif

The 5-0 scoreline flatters this English team. A sorrier bunch of losers haven't left those shores since the First Fleet convicts...

 

I hope they can get their act together for the one-dayers or it will be a very dull series.
