01.05.14 | i predicted England 3-2. figured we'd win in Brisbane and Perth and drop the other three games. aside from Stokes and occasionally Broad, they were hopeless |
Douglas
01.05.14 | I was wishfully hoping for a draw of the series, but a whitewash was unprecedented! Stuart Broad bowled very well, only player for England over Tests that showed some ticker, but looked like a rabbit in lights with the bat. Scared! I liked the way Stokes went about his cricket, really deserved his 100 in Perth, and bowled well throughout! For Aus, our top 6 better get some runs in South Africe, and Doolan/Hughes/Ferguson should come in for Bailey, as much as I like him, if Anderson/Broad are troubling him with swing, he has no chance against Steyn and Co |

Phlegm
01.05.14 | bit of back yard cricket is good fun but it is probably one of the lamest sports to watch |
Chrisjon89
01.05.14 | i reckon we'll get beaten in SA. Steyn/Philander/Morkel whole different story to England's misfiring bowlers. our top order improved upon the tours of India and England but we still seem to heavily rely on runs from Haddin in the middle order and runs from the tail.
but we have a great bowling attack now and all our batsmen offered something in this series so hopefully it'll be a good tour. |
tempest--
01.05.14 | our top order needs some work for sure, they just didn't perform as well as they should have for most of the test I reckon |
Douglas
01.05.14 | If we get away from SA with a 1-1 I will be happy. Cowan, Warner and Clarke all made hundreds against SA (whilst Wade was our Keeper) and we really should have won that series, just a poor showing in Perth really stuffed it. |
Douglas
01.05.14 | Though out of all the tests, this would have to be my favourite moment:

01.05.14 | yep, we're shit and as a whole so is cricket. Now can we all move on with our lives and move onto a sport that isn't boring as fuck and takes 5 days to complete one match. |
Douglas
01.05.14 | Shame England couldn't hold on for 5 days Moosechris. Seemed to be a 3 or 4 day game. |
MoosechriS
01.05.14 | haha true, i'm just not one for the English culture of "oh look we won something for once" and then within 5 seconds going "we're the best team ever!". It happens with the football at every world cup were people start talking about us winning the damn thing when we haven't had a side capable of winning in my living memory. The cricket team situation has been the same, it's like "we've won the ashes we're amazing!" i'm like "how many times have the Aussies won it again???". I'm all for national pride and support but the mentality at times is fucking nauseating |

01.05.14 | holy shit why is there so much hostility toward cricket |

01.05.14 | Basically, any claim that Doolan, Ferguson or Khawaja is good enough for a number 6 against the Saffas bowling attack is completely and utterly hilarious. I concede only Chris Lynn and Phillip Hughes have the talent enough; everyone else has severe weaknesses outside off stump in the Sheffield Shield and that will be only further be exploited by Philander. Bailey is similarly awful in that area but at least he has good team presence which cannot be under-estimated. But yeaaaaah, probably Hughes at number 3 instead of Watson and Lynn at 6. I saw both play some shield games and Hughes finally has his game worked out and god if he is good against anyone it's South Africa. Lynn's just a gun and is finally making some runs. Silk and Burns aren't far off as well come to think of it.
Future line-up for Australia by 2018 will probably be
1. Maddinson
2. Warner
3. Head
4. Hughes
5.Smith
6. Silk/Lynn
7. Whiteman/Wade
8. Faulkner
9. Pattinson
10. Starc
11. Bird |

adarkishman
01.05.14 | how the fuck did this even happen |
adarkishman
01.05.14 | we beat them 5-0 i mean jesus christ the last team that did this had hayden, poonting, warne, mcgrath, gilchrist, gillespe, langer, hussey etc.
this team had smith, rogers, haddin, warner, lyon, all people you could hardly call greats in comparison to the aforementioned players (admittedly warner and smith could become like that)
but fuck yeah fuck you england you piece of shit |
Douglas
01.05.14 | Dude they had borthwock or whatever |
tommygun
01.05.14 | johnson and harris were sweet
siddle is eh
the batters were ok
england just sucked in every way possible
top order will get a reality check facing steyn and co |
menawati
01.06.14 | it's just bizarre how england thrashed oz last time and now other way round, hope the next ashes is close and entertaining bcos these last two were boring |
tommygun
01.06.14 | yup need another one like 05 now that was some captivating shit |
SIMBOLIC
01.06.14 | those were the days tommy, those were the days when we had the best team ever prob |
tommygun
01.06.14 | pretty much dude
the only dudes from the current team who could get into that XI would be clarke (who was already there) and prob johnson in for gillespie |
tommygun
01.06.14 | ditto england with cook in for trescothick |
Douglas
01.06.14 | Simon Jones bowling with the old ball was mezmorizing. |
adarkishman
