Re: The Ashes
Brilliant, just brilliant from Broad

Yes we can! Fitting that it was Broad as well.WeAreDFC wrote:Great stuff from Broad, wonder if we can finish this off tonight.
Has to be said though that it was pathetic from Australia, total capitulation.
Re: The Ashes
And to think there were genuinely people wanting Broad dropped for this test.

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.
Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

Re: The Ashes
Joe average for a dozen tests then just explodes into brilliance, highly talented but just does not try all the time IMHO
But by Christ pretty boy turned it on today

Typical 'pretty boy' tbh, when thing aren't quite going his way is when he's most dangerous.

Re: The Ashes
Without a shadow of doubt one of the worst australian sides in my living memory. I actually feel a pang of sympathy for the Aussie supporters. can anybody name a worse Aussie side?WeAreDFC wrote:Yes we can!

Re: The Ashes
No sympathy i'm afraid, they just make their own problems, they have a few good players who can be match winners but they don't work together as a team, this is where we differ, someone always tends to stick the hand up and lead from the front.
I still smart at the beatings we took under Ponting and Waugh so another 20 years of total domination may make things even in my mind.

Re: The Ashes
Tough one, we really want to crush them 4-0 to make the Aus trip easier but as you say we could blood some of the fringe players, I expect one or two with injuries/niggles may be rested and i can see Bell having a rest and maybe Jimmy.THE PRINCE OF WALES wrote:5th test,do we go with the same team or do the give the fringe players who will tour australia this winter a game? i would go for the fringe players to give them experience.
Like to have seen Onions play but i think his England career is over now, may try an new bowler on a bouncy Oval track or another spinner, return of the Monster?
Re: The Ashes
Fifth test starts today. A dead rubber but it would still be nice to make it 4-0 and demoralise them a bit more given how close the next series is. I'm hoping to see better from Cook and Trott especially.
Re: The Ashes
Can we still do this? Probably not but it would surely destroy they Aussie's mentally if we did.
