Its cricket season!

Can't believe how easily the poms folded early today.m

Got in the box seat and choked. But they have proven that they have no resistance in their tail.....bit like the Indians.

Have we started relaxing yet?

As my English colleague said by text this afternoon: "Yeah, we're fucked now"...

haha, yer my only relax was that I was that busy after that post I couldn't keep tabs rest of the day lol....
So was good to hear the results once I got in the car - yes I was relaxed then.
2nil - not a bad start - but I'm still not convinced were ok, being a avid sports person it ain't over till the final whistle, once we have the 3rd then I'll be relaxed !

Writings on the wall now. I wish I had put money on at the start haha.

Possibly.
I can’t stand smith but he’s certainly got all the skills.

what the hell is going on

I like Smith
didnt like Clark as captain
it was that it was all about him, not the team, he obviously spells team with a I

Smith just has one of those heads that you just wanna punch.

Cannot deny his skill though.

Aussie will be racing the weather in this one I think. They almost need to declare early and try and knock over the poms today or tomorrow

I like Smith a lot better than either Ponting or Clarke.

Both Ponting and Clarke were handed teams that could do no wrong, but the players morale was just shocking - they didn't look like mates, and they just fell into cliques.

Clarke is a Shire Boy (played Juniours for Sutherland) and just seems more down to earth given that we talk about him in the same breath as Bradman.

I don't think Warner is a very good Vice Captain though - I think he needs to concentrate on his batting and let someone else take that helm.

Well 127runs doesn't sound like much with 6wickets in hand to get in a full day.
Seriously you think you could hold out and get a draw from this in the Poms eyes.
If we get a couple of early wickets then it will be a mountain too high.
We got to go hard/aggressive attacking field.

As for Captains - its always hard to get the perfect candidate as we had been fortunate to have during the strong years.
Starting with AB captain angry lol 9could you blame him), a ordinary team but he carried them brilliantly and what a foundation laid.
Having known Taylor I never really warmed up to the Fujitsu guy But I can't deny his record and what a team.
SWaugh was my pref everyday of the week.
Gilly had a short tenure but you can't not admire his period.
Ponting, yer never liked him much,something about him not very appealing but again a great record and obviously with the team around him.
Clarke, DH.....Pax ? talking about him in the same breath as Don ??
Smith, a huge change over in personnel, he's led from the front a number of times which is expected from our Captain.
Had some failures offshore but who didn't most times in the past.
Maturing.
