Hey at least one of our nations has put our money where our mouth is.

You lot just put your money where your tv licence inspector's purse is.
Would love nothing but to do the impossible and be the first team to pull back 2-0 Ashes defecit since 1937. Your utter hate for everything about this country is firing me up despite the deck stacked against us

I love England and it's players don't get me wrong.

I'd love to talk life with Zak Crawley and craft beer with Ben Duckett. Ollie Robinson shares my love of history and he could talk to you for hours about Oswald Mosley.

No it most definitely isn’t. It is pretty funny seeing him regard himself as the arbiter of the spirit of cricket though
From Stokes' comments post match it does sound like he was deliberately playing it up to try and inject some spice into the proceedings.

Perhaps, Croady, it would be worthwhile familiarising youself with what and how the person you are responding to normally posts before starting arguments with him.

This thread has been undertaken in good faith, idk what you're talking about McKenzie. Some posters are agitated, sure but I think the Australian posters have been generally deflecting the bad energy in good faith.

He’s looking for a dead cat bounce, which I get from a psychological pov, but this one’s dead and buried now. They couldn’t beat ten blokes over three days after winning the mother of all good tosses.

Dead
Buried
Cremated
