Yeah I'm used to that, but he seemed to have much more of a back and across movement than you usually see
Well I think that can only be a good thing really. If you're not getting properly forward you at least need to be as in line with the ball as possible.

Seriously, how that tight shirt pie throwing Knob Tremlet can take a wicket is beyond me!

Yeah they were making a fuss on TMS about how few reviews there have been, but it makes sense given the lack of lbw decisions. Which in turn is obviously down to the style of bowling favoured thus far.
Oh were they? You know throughout England's innings I can't recall a single LBW shout where the ball hit the pad. Siddle appealed once from memory, but the batsman hit it.

If Clarke did it (set the field I mean) I reckon everyone would've loved it. Seriously.
Nah no way. Anderson should have said no, I can get Clarke out too. Broad could give the batsman more set the single off his first ball if they felt the urgent need to bowl at Clarke.

Suck it England. That's why you don't give a single to Australia's best batsman to get him on strike.

That was probably too high from Broad. Best area to target is probably just under the armpit so that Clarke can't extend the arms so freely.

Yeah Aggers hates DRS so has been made up both days mentioning it. Ow only caught an hour of TMS, the last hour, on both days and he must have gone on about it ten times
