    166 all out, 281 runs shy with 2 days and a session to spare.
    5 for for Harris to wrap it up.
    Of the 11 who have remained unchanged only Clarke has won an Ashes.

    5-0

    Bladdy hell. I took a 15 minute shower and it's all over! Great to win 5-0; but expected a little more fight from England - it's almost like they enjoy being arse raped

    And where better to do it than the home of the Gay Mardi Gras....... Sydney.

    I think a lot of credit has to go to Boof Leyman for this turn around in form for Australia - as a team. You can bet Mick Arthur isn't enjoying this as much as a former coach usually would..

    AS an Aussie I am pleased we won the ashes back , but I am not getting carried away with how good the Oz side is but how badly the Poms played - obviously some internal strife the same as Oz last few years', dont get me wrong I ampleased with the win ,but next series will be the acid test.

    No doubt he will be in the press saying it was his groundwork that did it all.



    If anyone can be bothered to speak to him.

    Yep. I'm looking forward to seeing how we go in SA. Our batting is still a worry. Our bowling is more than fine though. Cook just said it has been the best pace attack he has ever faced.

    To be fair, he's not really qualified to comment, not having faced much of it....

    It is true that the manager has done well, but you could already see in the England series that he was doing a good job. Wanker...

    I am totally disgusted with this English performance as all true cricket fans should be.

    The corporate people that support and earn their living out of servicing 5 day test matches must also feel totally peeved with the Poms.

    This is great for Australian cricket and hopefully we will see youngsters take up the game once again. We will certainly need them in the near future.

    It was piss poor. The final test was a virtual no show...

    I don't see that we'd be able to beat any team in world cricket at this moment in time; Bangladesh must be gagging to play us a.s.a.p.

    Me too. Heads will roll.

    Well done to the Aussies for getting themselves back on track, however temporarily. It would've been better if you had young players coming through and doing the damage, but your key players are getting a bit long in the tooth. I can't see much of a future with this lot.

    England, on the other hand, have some good future prospects both home-grown and poached.
