Australia are no better than what we are.

They did with the help of biased umpiring, at least we have been able to fuck them up by them not being able to win all 5 tests.

Go to YouTube and type in: The Beatles - I Need You (Official Music Video) Best band ever. He deserves his knighthood, bit overdue if I'm being honest considering Paul got his 21 years ago.

If I was Steve Smith (which I'm glad I'm not) I would declare once I've reached 100. And got 30 overs to bowl England out which is easily possible. I could bowl them out myself.

We have the wrong captain and a very weak team. Take Cooks 244 out and we have a massive first innings deficit. There must be better players in County Cricket who would be prepared to give Australia a run for their money.

Be good if they could get abducted by Aliens while they were at it.

He was the guy who flew the first plane into the World Trade Center (fucking nutter) I will be more than happy with a draw to avoid losing all five. It is the worst team we have sent to Australia in years, I see Root got Warner out with his part time bowling. I knew The Ashes were gone when Root got the job. The difference between the two teams is Steve Smith, the captaincy hasnt affected his game and he has been there for Australia when they have needed him but I do agree with Stoneman that Australia are no better than what we are and Australia are limited beyond their first choice bowling attack.

Yep, all too late now.

Broad wasn't out, like he wasn't in Brisbane either.

They may declare overnight but I wouldn't bother. Just try not to lose the game now. Won't win it.

That was Englands highest ever test score without a century. I would not have declared. I would have gone for the overall record.

Well done Alastair Cook

England will collapse in the first session, won't even get what Australia got.

The England players were saying they were going to treat these two tests like a mini series. A mini series that Australia will win 2-0. I do agree with Stoneman that Australia are no better than what we are and someone also said that Australia are vulnerable beyond their first choice bowling attack which is also true.

Australia will set England at least 450 to win this test. Apparently Vince left the crease when he shouldn't have done, plonker.

You can get photo programs that do all that. I use one called Photoscape, you can download it free. Australia are on course to win this test already.

He should never have got the job, my heart sunk when he got it. I totally agree with Pointing, not often I go Aussie over English but he's spot on. 5-0 Australia 🇦🇺

Smith is on course for a century. Look on the bright side, we can win the coin toss either 2-3 or 1-4. I think Anderson is level with Courtney Walsh on wickets, if he can go a few more years he could overtake McGrath. Wouldn't have made any difference who won the toss as Australia will win anyway.

Hail Sir Ringo.

Rolf Harris to Rembrandt Donald Trump to Abraham Lincoln

I totally agree with Ponting, he is spot on. Root is a useless captain and hasn't got a clue. Putting him as captain was admitting defeat in the Ashes before a ball was bowled. Australia will win all five tests and win the next series in England. The Ashes are going to be like they were before where Australia dominate every test. I'd never heard of Bancroft before this series which I guess isn't a bad thing. Never been but flew over it when I went from Sydney to Perth, I remember that flight well, the Pilot was some kind of nutcase.

I hope so but I doubt the job will be as I know it now. The bloke was absolutely sozzled, I don't drink alcohol, I'm more caffeine myself. I cant go down the alcohol road as I drive.

Victoria which is Australia's smallest state is bigger than England, Wales and Scotland combined. The MCG would be a lot better for the Ashes if the series was still open which only happened in 2010 in recent times. I agree with Ponting, Root is like a little boy. I knew when he got the job the Ashes were gone.

Melbourne in Australia has never really appealed to me.

You could say that, I keep seeing that woman's face in my mind. I was never really interested anyway, just humouring her. It's good as I havn't seen her since. Comparing her to the woman I really want is like comparing Rolf Harris to Rembrandt.
