    Yep.... BBC Headlines....

    England batsman Jonathan Trott leaves the Ashes tour of Australia because of a long-standing stress-related condition.

    Send out Trescothick to replace him.....

    Actually I'd bring Compton.

    His been battling this for a while and the selectors have been aware, if this is the case he should have never been there in the first place.

    True, he should not be there if he has a stress related illness that has been going on for some time.

    So we can now accuse Warner of ridiculing the mentally ill...... Jeez, as a shit bloke he really surpasses all.....

    who?? cos it certainly isn't Trescothick.... he went home from India in 2006, never had anything to do with having to visit Australia. It was 3 years after his only Ashes tour.

    Interested to hear who Necron knows about, however I suspect he's just making something up.

    After Johnson's interview calling a man who it seems has a real illness brittle is rather funny.

    From Wikipedia:

    "Returning once again to the international arena, Trescothick was included in the squad for the 2006–07 Ashes in Australia, and played in the first two tour matches against the Prime Minister's XI and New South Wales. On 14 November, following the match against New South Wales, England announced Trescothick was flying home due to a "recurrence of a stress-related illness"."

    None.... Trescothick (who my memory failed on not remembering he went on that tour) went home on stress leave BEFORE his teammates received a walloping.....

    very different

    That's a shame, and I hope he'll be OK. There's absolutely nothing funny about trying to score points over a mental illness.

    Glad you asked.

    Comprehensively beaten by the PM's XI by 166 runs with Mr Brittle getting a whole 2 runs.

    Tour Match: Prime Minister's XI v England XI at Canberra, Nov 10, 2006 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo


    And saved by the rain against NSW with Mr Brittle lasting all of 15 minutes for 8 runs.

    Tour Match: New South Wales v England XI at Sydney, Nov 12-14, 2006 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo


    Obviously terrified at what awaited him at the GABBA and did a runner.

    Not sure who will go in to play at 3, Bell?

    ^ Knowing all about his situation were the selectors clinically homesick when they sent him on tour?

    Clarke tells Anderson " Get ready for a broken fukin arm"



    Anderson whining like a baby.

    He has been shooting his mouth off during the English summer when England were winning, and when the shoe is on the other foot he goes running to the umpire. Needs to grow a set.

    Perhaps they didn't expect it. I'm sure the glory hunters will be back now.

    England are not replacing Trott, which means a baptism of fire for some rookie!
