The Third Test Thread


Recommended Posts

Ear We Go again.......... :o

 

Well No Martyn to deal with. They say the waves are going SIck @ Margaret River & Marto would rather Hang Ten & Chill under the palms than deal with the hot pot of pressure that is Test Cricket.

 

Fair call. Who Am I to argue with that?....LOL.

 

Watched the Boy Mitchell Johnson on Telly last Night in a QLD V's Victoria 1 day match D/N.

 

He's the left arm Chucker many been calling 4.

 

I can see Y.

 

He's pretty fukin quick eh, Got that bit of a nasty streak really fast Bowlers must have.

 

Avg'd 95mph+ (140kmh +) or just above & had it bending like Beckham both in & out.

 

Near took one batsmans head off in 2nd over( Perfect short ball that rose between Shoulders & Top Of helmet) , remember this lad Mitchell Johnson, might be a new thorn for years to come :( & we may get a look @ before the end of this series.

 

They say Perth isnt what it was i.e a Head Hunters paradise & That the Ozzies may go with Andy Symonds as he offers both a seam & spin as in a change bowler whilst not forgetting his half handy with the willow 2...Just quietly.

 

Bring it on.....Maybe.

 

Much more aprehensive Pre Perth than Pre Adelaide.

Monty has gotta come in and we have to take it to the ozzies .

 

At least we'll see a bit of attacking bowling if monty comes in as apposed to the fookin tripe we've been served up so far .

 

As Romey said i think we'll be heading for another defeat anyway but lets go out with a bang and not a whimper eh . :angry:

No doubt! If we pull something out of this then Fletcher (Flintoff also if it's true that he made the decision to play Giles) should hang his head in shame.

Cant help but feel that thats the spin the england management are putting out there to take the heat of fat fletch.

 

Giles was hardly trusted by Fred but look at the way he looked after Monty even when he went for a few..good captancy for once on this shambolic tour.

 

And listening to david lloyd on sky saying "it was always englands plan to play giles in the first test" was a mockery of speech,you simply dont play a man who hasnt played for a year simple as that..seems to me sky dont want to upset the england management to much.

 

Its been a balls up of a tour so far and given the state of our one day squad heads should roll come the spring.

Monty did real well. Was a stage when he got a lil punishement, but hung in there kept flightin it & more importantly got the backing of his captain.

 

A cple of times he even ran out of people to hiogh five.

 

Pitch didnt offer that much ( But Will), was good bowling mostly.

 

Harmo, much Improved.

 

A good day all round & watched quite a bit.

 

0/70 overnight was the hope I had in mind, But Geeez Brett " The Chucker" Lee was fairly steaming in the last session. & that Clarke bowls a lovely leg cutter 3/4 times an over.

 

Pretty evenly poised after day 1, with our noses just in front.

All out..........29 runs behind, and aussies are 70 odd for 1. about 100 runs ahead with 3 days to go.

 

Another embarassing display by the SO CALLED best of english cricketers, heading for a 5-0 whitewash.

 

Why do we bother even going over there, Fookin useless.

Extremely pear shaped.....Gilchrist 2nd ever fastest test century in history (57 balls). we need about 580 and are already a wicket down in second innings. Strauss for a Duck.................19 for 1 at close.

 

Lord have mercy on us. :) ..........................come home now to avoid further embarrassment. <_<

The glichrist hundred was a one off (i remember listening to big Vivs fastest ton back in the day) but when all is said and done its a shambles of a performance and a shambles of a tour.

 

If we're honest nobody expected us to retain the ashes but alittle bit of fight wouldnt have gone amiss.

Was out putting xmas lights in some trees ealry eve here last night. ( A Queensland thing they decorate outside rather than inside & makes sense when its 40 degs ).

 

The Tv was on & i couold here this comtion, over n over...went to see whatw as going on.

 

Going on..more like Going OFF ...Twas Adam Gilchrist.

 

Wata Knock...merciless ..pleased that my all time hero in the game's record wasnt broken.

 

But fuk me it was almost assault causing bodily harm what he was doing to our bowlers & fair dues they werent that bad.

 

Strauss I rekons that's his 3rd dodgey dismiss this series...Happens though.

 

All the AUssies got runs bar the 2 whom got craking dleiveries early.

 

It's ok we only have 2 full days left to bat......... :lol::lol::lol:

 

England 0 V 3 Australia ( Australia regain ashes)

Will do the same mate , fookin disgrace our men in white !!!!!!!!!

 

Think you missed the huge slice of irony in Mac's post there Willo :D . Anyway we had another good day. That's the annoying part, we've performed really strongly at times both with the ball and the bat. It's just not all come together at the same time.

well we need to learn one thing

 

why wasnt panesar in the team beforehand. i admire the lad for coming in and proving that he was needed. not a bad batsman as well.

Fletcher is the main reason why Monty didnt play..and still he cant stand up and admit he made a balls up.

 

I will post my thoughts on whats gone so wrong on this tour when the defeat comes (and it will) :(

Fletcher's proved he has shrunken nut's.

 

I also learned yest that Geraint Jones is infact one of the Touring squads Team selectors.

 

OMG....!!!

 

What hope has Flintoff got in making a wise or informed decisons when all his ears must hear is drivle.
