    Fair enough. In future I'll refer to them as the batsmen representing Australians other than Aircon. No probs.

    Is 'representing' even accurate?

    It is, but they're not doing a very bloody good job of it!

    "Embarrassing" might be more appropriate. :(

    You know, the most amazing thing about this series is that the weather hasn't played any part.

    Surely it's due to rain for the next three days?!

    Well it might have done if they had lasted more than 10 minutes.

    Never mind, guys. See you in another 2 years

    True. Congratulations. After Lords no-one would have predicted this result.

    I feel sorry for the Aussie fans who have spent lots of hard earned to go all the way over there and have had to endure such pathetic rubbish from our team.

    At least when I was there watching in 2013 even though we lost the series it was fought hard and the Poms had to earn it (and be helped by extremely dodgy umpiring, DRS, weather, cheating, etc.....)

    Oh. If you want to come and witness first hand the upcoming whitewash let me know.
    I'll take you to the Adelaide Oval for a day. I might even buy you a beer.

    :)

    Someone said tonight that a radio announcer and former coach of the Australian Rugby team was indeed gay, is this true?

    If true it's hardly surprising. Every time I hear him speak and watch his mannerisms I've thought the same thing.

    NTTIAWWT.

    Plus, he likes rugby, so it's a slam dunk.

    Why is Johnson retiring?

    He's surely still in our top four or five bowlers and could have played this series out at the very least.

    Not to mention going out in Perth in front of four people instead of Adelaide in front of 40,000

    The two gayest Test matches in Oz are Brisvegas and Perth.
    We'll have more people here on the first day than the entire Perth attendance.

    He could have easily snagged another 6 or 8 here in the day night conditions, and gone out in style.

    Sorry and multibuggeries that I missed your post - you will be pleased that they have called for a pink ball in the Aldilade test.
    Orders are no marching between overs.
