Pretty Exciting

conclusion to the Cricket today - when I looked this morning think the Aussies had 107 - then suddenly 6 out - and we won by 14 runs.  Where are all you cricket fans - SkyBlueoz and PPLF?

We won by a shed load Wensdi, they'd be lucky to get within 14 runs.

We're not even playin that well and still winning comfortably. Botham was right....it's gonna be 9-0.

England have been pretty average but still won fairly comfortably 
Joe Root must be put back in the middle order,opening isn't doing him any good whatsoever

Not that Compo was my cup of tea, he was a tad harshly done by. Root and Bairstow haven't been consistent enough. I heard a stat that Root has averaged 13 if you take his 100 out of the equation. 

England have been average with the bat with only Bell looking good, the others can't get an average above 40.

Good job the Ozzies have been shite.

Read my 1st comment on the Ashes thread.

Spot on Dawg!

Sorry Shaken meant to say 74 - not 14.

I know, but I thought i'd pick up on your mistake anyway    .

Sorry!

Yes wensdi I was watching until 11.45 pm but nothing was happening 137 for 1 and the aussies looking comfortable. So I decided to turn in as it looked like they were going to get the required runs. I had an early start the next morning so as I got up went to check My daughter was up and getting ready for school, I turned on the T.vV as I went through. As I came back through the highlights were on & the 2nd wicket had fallen then a 3rd then 4 next thing I know I had 15 mins to shower , eat & get my daughter to school. Still enjoyed winding them up at work.

Always glad to see u s stuff the aussies.

My son got married in April and we were just waiting for the next stage, our first granchild but guess what we got instead?

They are moving to Sydney in September permanently after a 2 year stint there for work a year and a half ago they feel they have been unable to settle back here and miss the lifestyle they had there. gutted!!!

A good City Supporters club in Sydney as is Brisbane and the one here in Perth. At least you can get to do the parents / in laws extended stay. my in laws do that every year fortunately I do get on with the! Well for the 1st month or so then it is cordial then the last couple of weeks I am in countdown mode for them leaving.
