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

Very good points brother AHLUNGOR, I guess sometimes when the team is winning you can forget that the team has been riddled with injury over the last few months and as you said our top six (with the exception of Clarke) aren't rock solid by any means. I think I'm just being a little greedy as I've got tickets to the first day at the SCG and while I'll still enjoy every ball, its better knowing that there's still something to play for rather than watching a dead rubber.
