***Official*** 3rd Test at the WACA

[Furball]

Didn't the great man play pretty much every game of the 2013/14 double header?

 

[Starfighter]

Only missed the first test in '13. For some strange reason.

 

[Cow]

What is needed from the Perth test is a huge improvement in the English batting and secondly, and maybe more importantly, a little humility from the Australian team and the Australian posters on cricketweb.

[S.Kennedy]

There is no coming back now. The team are imploding. The tour is an unmitigated disaster. Bring them back before they embarrass themselves further.

How long have you been in Aus?

Those sorts of attributes are called "Un Australian"

So grace and dignity are lacking in this series then.

Australia has never quite recovered from Hewitt being not ''the great white hope for Australian tennis'' that they all thought he'd be. I read that when he lost some heavily hyped match which had been innundating the sports sections of the papers until now, the Australians swiftly buried coverage of his defeat, replacing poor Lleyton with news of some Australian kayeking victory in Kuala Lumpur haha.

 

[Spark]

I didn't like him, but I'd definitely trade Hewitt for the current shower that is Australian tennis.

Yeh, look, you're right. Probably should fight in the streets more, headbutt our opposition more, and tip beer over each other more.

Nothing worse than person writing like they speak.

"Yeah, look, you know, ummmm, awwww yeah"

Were you raised by dingos?

 

[fredfertang]

Disappointing development - was a real likelihood Cow's posting would be the only entertainment England supporters would get out of the Perth match - now we won't even get that

 

[Spikey]

always liked that harsh ab guy

 

[Starfighter]

The atmosphere seems a bit clearer already.

 

[Spikey]

not surprised he got done after quoting Stalin but it's curious that PEWS didn't get there first

This is so dire.

I really do enjoy this community and it's been a great place to hang out. I'm going to sit the rest of this Ashes out though because this Ashes subbie has just been diabolical from start to finish.

I accept that we're always going to have people that just get on my ****.......they're always here and always going to be posting shite (IMO of course) but what has struck me is how many perfectly good posters have turned into utter morons during this series.

And it's so noticeable that the great posters here aren't active while all this 8 year old bullshit is going on. You should all take a minute and think about that.

I'll be back in the New Year.

 

[GotSpin]

what...

 

[Gnske]

Imagine unironically pronouncing you're quitting an online sports forum for 30 days

 

[TNT]

Reminds me of Swann.

Wouldn't be the first time an Englishman quit midway through the Ashes

 

[fredfertang]

I intend to remain, and be the archetypal whinging pom, unless a miracle happens of course, in which case I will try my best to be unbearable
