The Ashes

The Ashes always interest me and I'm a Kiwi!

Doug the Rug will be interesting. I hope he pings them in and bowls plenty of bouncers....

All these two teams need are an interesting wicket and there will be a result. Someone should go and sabotage the Adelaide wicket with a backhoe.
 
So my fave cricket lover hates Australia, and pretty much just goes for everyone we play. TODAY WAS UNBEARABLE. I wish I still thought Australia was the best and fairest players in the world. (I was young and naive, okay?!) Knowledge is destroying my love for the game. I cricinfo'd for most of the day... but god damn.

I'm not working tomorrow, so I think I'm going to fuck off the Christmas shopping I should be doing, grab some beers, and pray for a miracle.
 
My god, we are sooooo shit :\

A missed run out and a dropped catch already. How badly can we fuck it up by the end of the day I wonder?

UAN, I'm blaming Australia's poor performance on your sobriety. How are those beers coming along?
 
This!

And This!!!

The ashes are gone!

Might as well put the goal posts in at the mcg and have a boxing day footy match!

LOVING IT!!!

I have to say after living in Australia for 21 years now (once even trying to convert to supporting the Australian team, only to be thwarted by Pakky supporting Aussies at the '94 world cup) and facing years of Australian thumpings and gibes after being thrashed, it is quite the enjoyment to be watching this series.
 
+1 Baysie.

The rest of the colonial world has been waiting for this thumping for 20 years. Even the South African's have been more humble in victory than Australian cricket. It wasn't that long ago where there were calls for the Ashes be cut to only 3 Test's from the local media because England couldn't put up much of a fight.

I say "Come on England!!!" Beat the living shit out of them and send Pouting packing. Then we can get back to laughing at English sporting teams again.

If you count the last innings at the Gabba the Poms are currently 834/3 8o
 
I say go england as well!

Havent supported australian cricket since they dropped dean jones back in the 90's!

Was going to start supporting them but then they dropped brad hodge who still cant even get a game in the one day team despite having one of the best averages for the last 5 years!

But i do love the vics! Go bushrangers and long live bill lawry!

I know I'm really just jumping on the cricket band-wagon (this is what you get when you're living with a full-on sports junkie - you have to embrace it!), but as I keep saying - the idiots who were crowing and insisting on shortening the series were different people.
The Australian cricket team is constantly evolving and changing and I don't think you can lump this team in with the morons of yore. :p

All of that said, I'm getting a bit sick of the Aussies being shellacked. Can we teach one of them to bowl, or is it a lost cause? :(
 
Poor Hauritz! Strange decision.

Although how can you NOT pick a guy called Beer? Makes for some fun betting. I'm putting my hard earned on Beer to get 5 wickets. Also $20 on Beer to make a ton.

The headlines will be great!

"POMS BOWLED OVER BY AUSSIE BEER"
"BEER WRECKS DESTRUCTION THROUGH THE ENGLISH TEAM"
"FIRST THERE WAS BOONY, THEN THERE WAS BEER"
"HAVE NO FEAR, BEER IS HERE"

I'll stop now...
 
I lost count of how many people said exactly that on the weekend.

Australian Cricket, WTF?
 
Good to see the Vics at least know how to be competative against the poms!

Maybe we should just put the victorian sheffield shield side in for the third test!

And the poms will bowl Strauss left arm off spinners!!! WTF???

Fuckin Love it <3

Once the Pommie batsman step past the boundry.
Under the stands of the SCG
There'll be sixes and fours and we'll take our Ashes back to Lords
We'll beat the Aussies with Strauss and KP
Spanking the Aussies
Spanking the Aussies
They dont stand a chance against Finn and Swanee
And We'll sing as we sit and we listen to the radio
We'll beat the Aussies with Cook and Straussey
