The Ashes: Second Test, Adelaide - The 100% OFFICIAL thread [Merged]

[Marc]

thats it we're DOOMED

Kevin out, bowled Warne

 

[London Irish]

Hmm, looks like England are going to need Giles' batting after all

 

[Billy the Fish]

Now we're in the shit. Deep deep shit 73/4.
You get the feeling they've just come out with completely the wrong attitude

 

[Billy the Fish]

All that hard work down the shitter. Strauss and Bell came out this morning and didn't play any shots, as if to say we're going to sit here all day when they should've been looking to post a total. Now the initiative is firmly with them, they've set an attacking field and warne is going after the batsmen. All they had to do was be positive, instead we've lost three stupid wickets and someone has to bat us out of trouble again.

 

[Dawsey]

77/5 now, Flintoff has gone.

 

[Billy the Fish]

WHAT THE f*** IS GOING ON. What a load of bollocks

 

[BensGrandad]

Jones gone England 133 ahead with 6 wickets down. Will we get a draw?

 

[Juan Albion]

Think positive. This way you will get a chance to bowl the Aussies out and win the game.



Calling all passengers for Pork Airlines flight 0-2.

 

[Billy the Fish]

On a brighter note, there's someone in an Albion shirt standing on the grass bank.
It's a lost cause now, Warne and Lee look like they could get Hoggard at any minute the other two won't last long and Aus will only need to score at about 4 an over. I've tried to go to sleep but I'm too pissed off, I'm now resigned to watching us get dicked on. great

 

[Billy the Fish]

Hoggard gone 105/8

 

[Juan Albion]

Do you know whether 551-6 would be a record score for a team batting first but losing?

 

[Billy the Fish]

I'm not sure but I doubt it, I know India have done some huge run chases.

 

[London Irish]

What a game! Collingwood can still save this for England by eeking this out for another 15 overs?

 

[Billy the Fish]

f*** sake Koertzen you c*nt, that was well above the knee roll. I know we've been super SHIT, but it doesn't help when you lose two wickets to decisions that aren't even marginal

 

[London Irish]

All on the last man.

 

[Billy the Fish]

What a game! Collingwood can still save this for England by eeking this out for another 15 overs?

Your not wrong, but

 

[London Irish]

Oz have only 36 overs to bat. If they can just get that to under 30, England still have a chance!
