    England all out before lunch!

    134 runs lead, we are in the box seat!

    Now lets sit back and enjoy the batting from the Aussie boys !

    Yes, lets hope Warner makes a century. Its not as though he is under any pressure whatsoever

    Australia ahead by more than 150, the English likely to be batting last on a very warn pitch

    Its looking like Aussies 3-0 unless bad weather is forecast

    How big a lead do we want before Captain Clarke will declare ??

    From 369 to 469 ??

    May be we will bat until lunch then declare and send England back in. If Watson, Smith, Bailey, Haddin, Johnson all let loose, we can add 100+ in the morning session alone, then it's up to the bowlers to wrap up the series and regain the Ashes !!

    Go Aussie

    Watson got a century !

    And the ball before hit a six but was caught on the robe and carried a jumping Tim Bresnan over the line for six!!!

    And then he hit it straight up the air!

    And Swann drops it !!

    But Watson was ball watching

    And Bresnan hit the stumps and Watson was run out! And this is after Bresnan caught him in the air but over the robe for six ! So Bresnan eventually got his man ! Karma ??

    I met him 1 day and he is a very gentle, humble and friendly giant.
    The guy in person is huge and has a hot Mrs!
    He did drop it but Watson went walkabout and was run out because he did not run through like your taught.

    That is it !

    The Captain had seen enough!

    Lead is 503 !!

    4.6.2.4.6.6 that's 28 off a Jimmy Anderson over ! By George Bailey!

    Why won't you declare after that ??


    BTW, just find out 28 off a single over was a world test record previously held by Brian Lara - now Bailey shares this piece of cricket history and record !!

    Over 0.1: Harris to Cook, no run, OUT, three slips, gully and a short leg as Harris bowls from the Prindiville Stand end and Cook is clean bowled first ball!! Middle stump is gone, and are the Ashes as well? Ryan Harris - that was brilliantly perfect!

    At 3 for 90 England have nothing to loose the should come out and bat like the Australians did this morning with nothing to loose what a difference it made to Watson and Bailey who have done nothing all series. Have a slog have fun and entertain the crowd at least you will get something out of the game.

    Yes, we want to see a contest, but would you rather see Alastair Cook still batting now making a 100 or delight to see him gone first ball in the first over, clean bowl by Harris ??

    Right now, the Ashes is still on the line, although I really can't see England bat out the day or actually make 253 with 5 wickets in hand - unless Stokes makes a double century or something - now that would be a contest !! So, centuries for Stokes and Pryor - to see a real contest - and risk drawing or even losing this 3rd test, or happy to see our boys wrap it up before lunch ??

    I know what I rather see...................haha

    Cheers

    To be honest I think that I would prefer to see the Aussies wrap this game up and win back the ashes, but it would be exciting from a competition/spectacle perspective to see England either bat out the day and draw keeping the series alive going into the final two tests. However the likelihood of that happening are very slim considering that Prior isn't in any form and the last two recognised batsman are out in the middle.

    Well never give a sucker and even break if they get out of this one and then win the next two the series is tied and they retain the ashes.

    Got to beat them while we are in to box seat.

    Sure, purely as a sports fans, a 3-1 or 3-2 series win will be more exciting than a 4-0 or even 5-0 white wash!

    But let's not forget this England side can turn around very quickly and all Cook, Pietersen, Bell and Root need is a bit of momentum back their way and restore some self confidence. For all we know, Harris could be one over away from injuring himself and while Warner and Watson and Smith all found form, they are not rock solid and at the back of our mind is still Clarkey's trouble some back could play up anytime after Christmas, so we must wrap this up now and go for the kill at the G and in Sydney, we are still rebuilding at the moment - so fuck the competition and Spectacle, let's just keep winning test matches while we are on top, next up South Africa - we need to take as much momentum and confidents that we can gather to, yes, being competitive in Capetown and Johannesburg.

    Just my two cents

    Cheers
