    The same person who went on and on and on about the Aussie crowd being fair weather supporters because they didn't turn up on the 5th day of a dead rubber match is a closet fair weather pommy fan himself ! Shame on you Dave !!
    Does it really surprise you though? We've had to keep quiet and suck it up for a few years now, but ive always rhought English cricket fans are the biggest bunch of whiny pansies

    That's true, Willy; but you have been a touch whiny girlie from time to time - the Broad stuff sticks out...

    Johnson has done very well so far this test. But, I do think that he started averagely, at best, and Trott rather let him build his confidence through a bad shot selection. Having said that, he was under pressure with the bat, and he delivered.

    Stuart Broad takes the first wicket of the day for the third day in a row.....

    Twatson gone as well. We'll lose but if we can make it interesting and move on I'll take that at the moment.

    As for WDR claiming Trott was scared.....do you think he was wishing he'd get an injury so he doesn't have to play any more?????

    And he chucked a few lightning pies that your guys didn't see coming, which is why he was picked.

    Not uncommon to bowl quicks in short spells in tests these days. But he was leaking runs - which is very common when you bowl 90mph + . Takes very quick bowlers a bit longer to get their radar tuned also.

    Not surprised at all. It was near impossible to find a pom to 'talk cricket' with for 20 odd years, until they all suddenly came out of the woodwork.

    Bob claims to be an avid fan, but is watching the rugby today.

    Case closed your honour!!

    Don't know why you would ask me that. But watching Trott face MJ, he didn't have a clue where the ball was. He obviously wasn't used to facing suck quick bowling bouncing into his ribs. The look on his face told the tale.

    Good entertaining batting from Warner & Clarke.

    4.2 an over from the last 10.

    If England were batting they would be going at their usual yawn fest rate of 2 an over.

    Good commanding lead of 304 at lunch. If the weather forecast is fine then plenty of time to run up a lead of 500 today.

    Clarke steadying the ship since he arrived at the crease and together with 'never short of confidence' Warner, things are looking grim for England. Even a chase of 400 will be out of reach.

    You will have 2 days at least to chase.
    Don't buy into all that "No one has ever chased down xxx at this ground" cobblers.
    That's usually about time pressure, not runs.

    320 is the limit.

    Wally I'm at a rugby tournament in Chonburi.

    I will endeavor to be in this thread at all times so as to assure you that I am not shying away from you at all.

    I've explained to my son that I won't be able to take the pictures and assist the team, or even watch his games. Although disappointed he does realise how important you are and the steps we all need to take to satisfy your rather basic needs.

    16 runs off Swann's over.

    Same as his previous tours of Oz, he is proving to be toothless.

    At this rate, Australia to be 500'ish up by the afternoon - then put the poms in to face the new cherry from Harris & MJ for 10-15 overs.

    ^ He's looked good too. No real loose shots. That one that he nicked on 95 was the only suspect I have seen anyway..

    Yep, top stuff from Warner. 49 and now 124. Australia will be well pleased with his excellent contribution.
