yee-hah

 

[alternative]

wooohooo.... 5-for.

Swanny!!!

 

[Jacknife]

Too good for Dougy those. We win,get in you beauty, brilliant Swanny in for the 5 fer.
They were weighed and measured and found wanting.

 

[Checkmate]

Aus to still win 2-1. Mitch to be leading wicket taker at the end of the series.

For now, Congrats England!

Swann bowling really well, this is a big session for us. He looks like he could take a few more today, I'm backing 5 or 6 all up.

Wasn't really a bold prediction though after seeing the turn.

 

[morgieb]

With Hughes coming in, Tremlett is a lock for us

What makes you think that Tremlett will challenge Hughes with the short ball? Someone like Morkel couldn't even do it, and Tremlett's not as good as Freddie.

Also, we'll probably pick Marsh anyway.

 

[chalky]

Bloody hell unique feeling can't remember the last time we won a live test in Australia.

 

[simmy]

Did you not see the A match?

 

[robelinda]

Well played you bastard Poms, well played. HUGE victory, nothing short of absolutely thrashed us. All credit to you Poms.

Bloody hell unique feeling can't remember the last time we won a live test in Australia.

1986. Boxing Day Test in 1998 was 'live' in the sense that England could still draw the series, but Australia had already retained the Ashes. (Same deal with the Fourth Test win in 1995.)

Phenomenal achievement really. Well done you ****s.

 

[Son Of Coco]

When was the last time Australia lost by an innings at home?

It being in Adelaide makes it far worse.

 

[simmy]

I am so happy

 

[Jacknife]

Swanny should of saved that last ball for a better batsman, it was a beauty. Oz lost 5 wickets for 43.

 

[GIMH]

Time for bed. Can sleep easy tonight

 

[flibbertyjibber]

When was the last time Australia lost by an innings at home?

1993 according to cricinfo.

 

[pasag]

Well done, Eng.

Pity about Broad though.

 

[Spark]

If Clarke does become captain then no one's going to be offended by his media work...
