Rest of the session cancelled because of a 30 second shower. Utterly ridiculous.

They can go till 10:30 if it was catching up from rain earlier. So why can’t they go back on now?

Australia written all over it.

Had Australia been batting 100% guaranteed would've played at least 3-4 overs to get the ball wet. It's border line corruption.

F**king disgrace they didn't take the field after that. Rules for some

Because it's rigged. Steve Smith right in front of us was like a kid who
Lost his last lollie to the 4th umpire about going back on.

Australia batting definitely would've been back on.

Not looking forward to work tomorrow after being blind for the last 36 hours. Spent less time in the members and more on the hill. Wish the Ashes were every year!!

Back at work for a rest after a big weekend, heading in for the last 2 sessions tonight.

Bit of a hack for members who want to get a good seat, most members line up at the North or South gate for an hour or two before the gates open, the Northern end had a line back around the behind scoreboard and heading towards the cathederal yesterday, I walked past them all and went straight in thru the Eastern gate where 20 people were lined up. Most members don;t realise you can get in thru GA and then walk around.

Also WTF was going on with the Little Creatures Bar on Day 1 on the village green? Had to line up to pay, then once paid you go to another line to get your beer, with no receipt to say you had paid!!!???? Did they keep that up yesterday....unbelievable!
