The law of averages suggests you should win again sometime soon. Let's hope it's not tom

Sweet. We have lost almost half our wickets and are about to go past the half way mark to England. We may go close to making them bat again and never know what might happen. Get a lead of 90/100 and roll them?














Nup. I can't even talk myself in believing that BS. There should be a mercy rule.

My ashes forecast was slightly off. Thought Warner would do more - he failed yet again - Rogers to average well which he has and Starc would make a difference if he stepped up - yes he failed. MJ played well for one match and 3 overs. As most of us thought except for that fella from the north of Queensland. Well played

Saved by the light from a humiliating defeat within 2 days. Another day tom. Just a reminder of what they look like - when you play in England - as its been a while from all accounts

As a once proud cricketing nation Cobra - you know - as well as I do - that winning the Ashes away from home is the JEWEL in the crown. Thats four in a row now. And this time you were absolutely SMASHED. Learn to live with it

You are right ted. We were smashed, embarrassing.

Makes me think I might get a second team like you..

I watched him on TV explaining how his form was shocking and if it doesn't change he won't be around..

kicking and screaming I didn't see any of that. But great story Ted

Did anyone mention the rugby...you know the game where we spanked New Zealand

His newspaper article before the test said he was not planning to retire anytime soon etc do u really think that all changed in less than 3 days without some gentle persuading by some influential folk ?

When AB and several other prominent folk are calling for ur head on TV your options are running out.
Tux - I have nothing

Ted @ Tux.. that's not true. You won the netball

Thanks for that pick up SP. been a while

I have to admit I am a big fan of Netball when them chickies bolt , stretch out & stop you can see right up ..... yeah I am a fan

Please learn to read the point that is made - it was what he said before you were smashed (again) in the last test.

"I have no intention to walk away from cricket," Clarke wrote for News Corp Australia newspapers.

he only retired after the lost test lost series and another dismal batting performance.

he wasn't going to retire before the test because he thought/hope his form would change (wouldn't anyone that still had a few years up their sleeve) it didn't and it drove the nail into his coffin….

if anyone thinks the aussie selectors are going to sack the Australian captain on the last test of a lost series dosnt know anything about AUSTRALIAN cricket.

we are not the poms,,,who do that kind of **** all the time…because they are tards and believe in tabloid newspapers.

Ted….like always in your eyes when a team you dont like gets beat, they are sh!t and when they win its only against hacks.

so Ted come and look at Australia's WORLD CUP trophy…..BTW we only beat a bunch of hacks
