*Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

Well done to England. Thoroughly deserved and well and truly outplayed us in all facets. Our fellas need a massive look at themselves.

Shout out to Neil as well. Must be great for him to have been there at Australia's second city and here in Sydney too.
You are a good poster.

:ph34r:

Just think, for the next two years we traditionally all start being nice to each other again. Hate that.

Well done England. Thoroughly deserved. You should be proud of your team, and no doubt are.

Australians on the other hand should feel ashamed. Absolute humiliation in our own backyard by our arch enemy in what is basically our grand final of Test Cricket. Losing is one thing, this capitulation is another.

Good to see Smith get his 50. Looked the goods tbh, then he played that pull shot. MAN that's an fugly pull shot. Still like others have said he looks like he has the head for this format, so I'd love to see him stick around the setup.

When a fighting half century after the game is already lost and a graceful first innings of 30 odd from a talented youngster are your highlights you know it's been a pathetic performance.

Loved this series. Thanks England for ending the years of pain.

Have Australia got a plan then with Clarke giving up captaincy in 20/20. Watto for all 3? :ph34r:
I'd just like to say now that Watson captaining anything would be all kinds of stupid. I don't recall who said it but I absolutely agree with whoever said that Watson is a very good, technical, skillful cricketer, but not a very smart one (cf runouts etc.)

Congrats to England, if they keep up the progression for the next two years, They could hop into #1, India will lose champions and fall, and it will be between England and South Africa.

3 innings defeats, brilliant stuff from England.

Come on Tubby, ask Clarke if he had Christmas lunch with the rest of the lads or actually went to Warne's?

I've heard it was the latter.
