The aussies are flat track bullies, any sign of movement or spin and there average as has been the case for a few years now. I dont agree with people saying hit your way out of it, clarke showed that doesn't work. You have to get yourself in and play good defensive cricket as it gets much easier later in the day where you can reap the rewards.

Poms will go out and score 400 plus

Hopefully after this crap it will be the last time we see S Marsh and Voges wear the baggy green

Good post, with any movement through the air and off the deck we become inadequate and the faults in players techniques are really highlighted. It's painful to watch.

Surely theres no reason why we can't come out and bowl like this??

I don't gamble anymore unless it's a shits and giggles bet against a mate for beers or something. So no Sports bet account etc and don't go to theTAB but saw England paying $3.25 today and was extremely tempted. How we were favourites after losing in two and a half days was a massive "What the.." To me.

Not even Shane's commentary stint can find positives in this

20/20 type batting has finally bit us in the ass.

It's so bad at least I can laugh at it. That may be the pain killers though.

I tip England to take a big first innings lead and these pitch demons if there are any to vanish like Jesus from a cave

Boof needs to be given more control.
Too many cronies like Marsh having too big of a influence in the running and selection of the side.

I like the way Haslewood is playing Broad. Back away to leg so far he can't reach the ball to edge it

Maybe there are problems in the camp after all? Boof will be fortunate if he survives this and obviously the pin has to be pulled on a number of players at the end of the series like Clarke, Voges, S. Marsh, Watson and Haddin.
