    FFS, stop stressing, it is back to back Ashes wins for the Poms, (love it), there must still be something you guys can beat the Poms at. (apart from whinging)

    we're doing pretty well in the whole "keeping your economy in good shape" business.

    More 'sackings/resignations' to come.
    I'd add James Sutherland to Pat Howard. Twat of the highest order.

    Make Boony CEO, Merv as Performance Manager and Warnie as coach......we'd be back to no 1 in no time.

    As Border said last night on Back Page, some of these new age guys need to step back and have a bit of "fun".

    Tonight will be important - it has to be at least even.

    If England get 2-300 or roll us under 300, it's gonna be a long tour.

    One or two have to step up and stamp themselves as test players, much like Steve Waugh did in 1989.

    depends on these two players

    Clarke; needs to score a ridiculous amount of runs

    Starc; has to take wickets, don't care if he concedes 100 runs in doing so, he is the most attacking bowler we have but he is also the most fragile.

    everyone else just needs to do there thing.

    be good to see how rogers goes.

    i think (or is it hope) we will be competitive. i don't really expect us to win the series, but if we can take two tests i'll be happy. then we can smash them over here in summer.

    I reckon two tests should be enough to win it, draw at worst (i know that means they retain the ashes but would give huge confidence to win back here come summertime)
    Ashes in england always ends up with at least one draw from being washed out.

    No Lyon, but it seems our hopes rest with Ashton Agar.



    I have a question.
    Who is Ashton Agar?
