The Ashes - Third Test

[wall4ace]

Yes, I know exactly what was said. If he didn't let his mouth over-run his brain, there would be no room for a retort... I mean, why say it in the first place? I remember another one where (I think) McGrath was bowling to a Zimbabwaen named Eddo Brands, who was a bit chubby to say the least: McGrath: "Brands, why are you so f#cking fat???"
Brands: "Because every time I sleep with your wife she gives me a cookie..."

i think the was srilankas ex captain aranatunga,not sure of the spelling

what a day for australia.gillys ton,pups and mr cricket

awesome day

We can almost smell the ashes coming back to us! What a day of batting from the Aussies! Mr Cricket was maybe a bit hard done by, but i'm sure he'll take 103 any day! Gilly was awesome, hope he keeps this form for the one dayers and Clarke continues he's resurrection, makes me think what if martyo was brought back 2 rather than 6 yrs out of test wilderness...

gilly!!!!

what a bloody legend

 

[Richo]

well how bout GILLY
that was amazing a 100 off 57, second quickest hundred in test cricket ever
and Mr Cricket and Clarke both got hundreds too.

THE ASHES ARE OURS

Gilly was AWESOME - Great to see him back to his best

 

[Klattsy]

Damn it and I was so close to pointing to you all and saying "I told you so" when I mentioned that Hayden would be getting a ton soon

Man how good is Hussey. He is such a professional. Oh to have had him in the team the previous few years. What a player. I really doubt his adverage will EVER drop much below 60...honestly the guy is brilliant.

Gilly...omg. Talk about a quickfire hundred. Its like he wakes up and goes "ah bugger it, i'll make a ton today..."

And we still finished the day with the wicket of Strauss. Not a shabby day

Mark.

Car'n Aussies !

looks like a game on for tommorow. i think this match can go either way but wid the pitch getting flatter by the session i see england having a good chance of rewriting the history books. we need to bowl much much better tommorow to win the ashes back.

 

[gemz23]

what an over by the pigeon which really dented englands bid to win the game tommorow. australia needs to get 2 more tommorow b4 tea and i think they do it. will be a cracker of a day tommorow.

The Ashes are back in Australia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

15 months, haha shortest ashes reign ever, well done england!!!


COME ON AUSSIE, COME ON!

 

[graham]

I just have to say, stick that up your ass England.

Let's hear the whining start! Bloody poms

 

[Allstar cards inc]

Lucky the Poms celebrated so hard after they won 15 months ago...it might be a while before they see the Ashes back again!!

 

[MetallicA']

LOL the Ashes are ours, this is going to be a whitewash.
They need to drop Jones and maybe Mahmood for the Boxing Day Test.

Would of made for a more exciting MCG test if England won Perth but oh well we will just now cheer for the sweep.

Hussey for PM

 

[wolvesjr34]

wasn't that Ponting runout awesome? English players are so dumb sometimes....

sad news about Ashley Giles though His wife being diagnosed with a braintumour.... hopefully she can survive it. I think the English will be even mroe deflated by that.

Congrats go to the aussies for bringing the ashes back where they belong!

 

[JZA]

It was just a fantastic 3 tests by Australia, really cemented our position as the best team in the world, despite many players being in the twilight of their careers.

Gotta say though, i dont think we will feel totally vindicated until we go back over there and win it on their home turf. that will be the icing on the cake!

 

[Richo]

Senbloodysational !

Go Aussies

 

[Billyhoyle]

will the aussies relax now and the last 2 tests be a little closer or because they having nothing to lose they'll play with reckless abandon and smash the poms
