Aussie's well over celebrating for me - particularly that horrible bastrad Siddle. I hope we sledge them to shit 2nd innings

Yeah agreed I hate the weasel faced aussie twat! I hope we sledge them all over in this innings. Oh no here comes the other arch twat Johnson!

Time for Mitch, should be interesting.

A balmy 13 degrees in Melbourne at 00.39hrs GMT.

Wow that is hot.

Go on Engerland!

Am I the only person who actually quite likes Siddle. He's pig ugly, but he runs in all day with a smile on his face & when he's batting he seems to enjoy it. That moment in Adelaide when he was batting & the ball his stumps but didn't dislodge his bails was priceless. He was laughing out loud.

He's an underrated bowler too

Siddle looks a dead ringer for John Calshaw

 

[The Fifth Column]

At least Trott and KP are looking to score runs, bit better from us now.

 

[SirElliotBennett]

yer, i'll be happy if we get to lunch and these 2 are still in.

 

[Beach Hut]

Still stand by even 300 and out as a very good score as the Aussies would need to get just over 200/0 to wipe the deficit.

True, but i'd be disappointed if we didn't get more than 300 from 193-2

could do with the wind and cloud cover to bugger off and make it easier for our batsmen.

Difficult conditions, Aussies up for it.

My prediction

Engerland 350 all out and a lead of 252

Aussies 320 all out early morning Day 4

Engerland win by 7 wickets late afternoon day 4 (after a rain delay)

I hope this isn't the kiss of death but KP looks in good nick so far.

 

[SirElliotBennett]

he looks good although he's gone for a few of those stupid flicks outside the off stump which Nass has pointed out

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

Crowd last night was like a home crowd at Cellic Park (aka San Giro) after another home drubbing. Aussies as fickle as The Unwashed.

Not at the game today but is cold and damp here in Melbourne so not surprised Siddle is getting some movement. He is a pig ugly aggressive twat BUT the only Aussie bowler to show any ticker at all yesterday. Johnson was so bad it was embarassing to watch and the rest weren't much better!

EDIT we are past 200...

 

[The Fifth Column]

Johnson whining at KP again, gobby fucker.

 

[The Fifth Column]

and gash tattoos as well!

 

[Stumpy Tim]

If KP can successfully cut loose (especially against Johnson) he'll completely take the game away from Australia - even more than it already is. A ton from 150 balls & we'll get 400-500 & just under 3 days to bowl the Ozzies out

 

[SirElliotBennett]

Surely the new ball is avalible soon?
