What a bunch of useless planktonsTalk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. My 2 year old niece has more chance of competing with Australia than the english cricket team.
They are all useless, spineless idiots. They should have all their honours they accumulated after the last ashes series revoked! Totally Useless!

That was s**t, im gutted ive stayed up for all these.
Amderson and Gilo Need To go For Panesar and Mahmood, We need people who can take wickets, Its not about the bat, its how you bowl.
Gilo's Drop from Ponting screwed us.
That must go down as one of the worst losses in history. A Bad declaration looking back, we should of gone on til all out, and we would have drawn that.

Do you think Dunc Fletcher is reading?? ^
Panesars Control was awesome, And Harmisons Face when he got Pontings Wicket for 2, it was an emotional moment! Mahmood is a quality Seamer, one of the best we have.

Did anyone really think that the result would be anything other?
Once again our so called sports personalities have demonstrated that they are not upto the job. Perhaps it is time to rethink the way all this is funded. One good result and they are rewarded. Perhaps the correct way is for payment by results.
If you do not deliver then get someone else.
I am sure that many people have seen better and more consistant performances from Sunday League. And those guys do not get paid.
I have no doubt that money will rule as usual. Keep the same people and pay them even more. What a waste!

i think They was soe bad Decisions made by the coach, Monty should of been in the second test, it was a turning wicket, Geraint Jones shouldnt of kept for us, Hes poor, and not even english,(typical,we put an aussie behind the stumps!) Chris Read is a better Keeper, and better batsman. How he got out today was poor, for an international, it was even poor for an amateur. Good play from ponting though.
Flintoff should be dropped as captain, it takes too much away from his game, last year he was an aggressive batsman, who averaged 50 odd, his highest score in this test is 51, thats poor for our middle order, K.P was fantastic with the bat, Our only ray of hope. Strauss was poor too. We Missed Tresco.
At Least we can take one thing from this, Most the aussies will be retired next year, ad we will be better. And also, they never claimed independance, so we never lose!

After that display, I am going to pay and send my nephew over there for the final test. Took 43 wickets at under 14's last season and voted bowler of the season for his club. Really must get down and see him play at some time in the new season.
He has trained under Terry Jenner who used to be the legspinning advisor to the Cricket Academy in Adelaide, credited with being instrumental in the success of Shane Warne.
I'm thinking a 14 year old leg spinner will put more fear in the aussies than the useless planktons we sent out there. Only thing is he can't really bat (but then neither can our top order batsmen  )

How s**t are we without Tresco? he never got enough credit, and i think him walking out had alot to do with him being overlooked in the captaincy....We always used to get a 100 partnership from the openers.
Too little too late, Chris Read should of been in from the start, hes put up 26no yesterday, thats more than that Aussie/welsh clown could do all series, i never rated jones as a keeper.
And thats Brilliant about your nephew dougie, You dont find many spinners at that age, i think all season,i only played one spinner, and he was there teams from and from india. I try and bowl a bit of spin, just to throw people, but generally, Im a fast bowler. its not often you get a brand new ball, so its harder to make it spin and swing anyway.
But good look to him, we need some players coming through in this country, Our future looks Bleek...

Another great performance by England.................NOT.
Pieterson out for rest of series with fractured ribs. My theory is he kept punching himself in the ribs on the way to hospital in order to fracture them so he didn't have to play in this embarrasment of series anymore.
My mate says he asked flinoff to smash his ribs with a bat.........................................
but flintoff missed
