Missing off, missing leg, hitting middle instead

Healy is a cheating, arrogant muppet... cannot stand the idiot...

Apparently (according to himself) he never made a mistake... twat...

When/how did he cheat?

Yeah not great...forgot about that

I can't stand Healy now but I think its Mark Waugh at first slip who is the even bigger cheat as he could see it clearly from 3 metres away but since reading his book I have always considered him a hypocrite so not surprised.

Both have cheated in that situation especially when Lara explains what he saw. Disappointing!!!

Yes he also has S Marsh batting at 4 during the Aussie Summer.

I think i probably posted it back when it was written, but a convo on facebook reminded me of this article about the state of the Ch9 commentary, worth another read

I care

Looking good for 450 now and with 5 bowlers I think we will square the ledger at 3-2.

Taylor: good batting, this is what Australia need

Yep, remember reading this. Spot on!

It's a boys club. It's been better in England despite the negative result but the Australian Summer has its extra share of f@cken flogs and non stop pisstake where the cricket is a foot note to the comical agenda.

It's a joke isn't it. I love watching this but can't help but be pissed off with the fact that we're doing it now and not 2 test matches ago.

I'm pissed off at England. Where was the wickets off no-balls, drop catches and shit bowling in the last two tests. If you can't trust the Poms to under perform FFS who can you trust

In the last hour they have only had 2 in the box and it actually seems better, because it is harder to have a matey mate in joke with just one other person in the box.

Cement head Siddle strikes second ball, hilarious effort Lythe

[Brodlach]

Poms finished 8/107

Lyon 2
Siddle 2
Marsh 3
Johnson 1

[helicopterking]

The ball Siddle gets Bell with is a gem.

As I've said before this a series between two average sides, England's batting has been very average this series also only Joe Root has been the difference. Hes top scored in the first Innings of the 3 matches England have won, plus he's the only bloke averaging over 31. Broad has also been exceptional but other than that everybody else has just chipped in other then Maybe Finn who has been pretty good in his 3 tests. If you go through both sides there have been plenty of average players;
England
Lyth- Awful will get dropped
Cook-Average captaincy much improved but Batting has let him down
Bell- Avrage but chipped in with a couple handy 50s
Root- The Difference between the teams
Bairstow- average made a nice 70 odd though
Stokes- Average but one hell of a spell last test
Butler- Awful but is very talented
Ali- Handy never going to a great bowler but his Innings with the bat have been game changing
Broad- Best Bowler in either side
Finn- Good
Wood- Average but I like him just needs to bowl more and more
Anderson- One good spell which started the rout in the 3rd test
Balance- Awful

Australia
Rogers- Very good and wil be missed
Warner- This may sound harsh but I think hes been average, consistently wasting decent starts
Smith- Good but when he fails the team loses at the minute
Clarke- Awful but been a heck of a player
Voges- Awful till his last two digs when the series was over
Marsh- Handy with the ball but his batting struggles as shown by his FC average of 32
Nevill- Average
Johnson- Been average in my eyes, He misses Harris big time
Starc- gets wickets but goes for plenty and makes life harder for MJ
Hazlewood- Thought hed be really good in England but lacked control
Lyon- Been really good and never lets the team down
Watson and S Marsh- Meh
Siddle- Should of been picked tests ago if the Aussies weren't so arrogant and thought they could just blast England away

There is only a handful of blokes on either side that would get a pass Mark, which shows this a series between two average side. If Harris plays for the Aussies they win in my opinion although defending 60 might have been hard even for him.

Absolute peach of a delivery

Lyon's ball to get Cook was also a beauty.
