ASHES DISCUSSION - lets roll bitches

[AussieTerry84]

this should bring some activity to the board ya bunch of nilly pilly bastards .


Bloody poms drawing first test , Lord's is gonna be a cracker! I reckon this series is gonna be as good as the 2005 one!

Australia hasn't lost at Lord's since 1934 quite amazing stuff!

 

[Bucko]

they cheated with some good gamesmanship with gloves for the batsman, damm poms

 

[Spiff]

As someone who is on record as stating that he'd rather go to a funeral than go to the cricket, I haven't been following this at all. What are the Aussies whinging about?

 

[Winmar]

Not winning, as usual!

 

[AussieTerry84]

PHEW surprsied we took all those wickets today!

Anyone else notice that SBS at the end of transmission for the night has been playing cricket songs

they're playing that west indian song about loving cricket, they've also been playing the Paul Kelly song about the MCG and the one about Don Bradman.

 

[Winmar]

I haven't stayed up all the way through yet! Onya, sbs.

Things were going well this morning until 3 wickets fell after I went to bed at 1:30.

 

[Priest of Evil]

After the disaster that was the make a wish skit, the Chasers ashes set-up was amusing. Yeah you need a bigger cup!

 

[Goreripper]

Isn't that West Indian song about loving cricket actually by 10CC? And isn't it called "Dreadlock Holiday"? Yes.

 

[AussieTerry84]

I dont know i just call it the West Indian song cause they sing about Jamaica


we are going shit 122-5

 

[Southy]

I said at the start of the series, the way Australia is playing we have no bloody hope, and I still believe it, we aren't doing as good as we fucking could IMO

 

[Winmar]

It's going to be difficult for Australia to chase this total down. At the moment England lead by 315 and have 8 wickets in hand.

 

[Winmar]

Johnson's bowling like shit again and England are cantering along. Lead now up to 478. As long as it doesn't rain there'll be 2 days to bowl Australia out.

 

[AussieTerry84]

yes first time in 70 odd years but we will finally lose at Lord's

I wonder what the english celebrations will be like on the street, could u imagine the excitement of us not winning at the MCG for 70 years but then finally doing it!

 

[Iron Zombius]

yeah, but the poms play at lords 2 times a year, where as we only play there once every 4 years

I doubt there will be any dancing

 

[Winmar]

England have won there plenty of times, just not against Australia!

 

[AussieTerry84]

yah but i meant in Ashes ya big bunch of wussies

 

[AussieTerry84]

i spose its not too bad as it actually makes the series quite interesting not knowing if the aussies will win or not.

Just like the 2005 series becomes very engaging and addictive stuff straight down to the wire!

 

[Taliwakker]

Will be an interesting last day....The first 30-45 minutes will probably decide how its going to end.

 

[AussieTerry84]

definately! its gonna be EPIC if clarke and haddin can stay in til the end! If that happens i reckon we'll win the series! lose and we have lost the series!

 

[Winmar]

If 2 wickets are taken in the first hour, that'll be it. Looking at that pitch though, it's probably not overly likely.
