Yeah, I'm a bit worried about that. He just the type....
He's a stubborn cnut. He turned up at Steve Waugh's house in the outback and saved it from a forest fire. If you can do that, you can still get Ian Bell out, however old you are.
Bracken's cousin used to be a poster in here at one time.mjdj or something.
Jesus we've just taken a hammering

I really hope we win there player and media showing us no resprect at all. The players saying they will beat england 5-0 and we are a 1 man(flintoff) team. There sports media is worse than englands and that saying something just watch SSN and they showed headlines in austraillian papers. I really hope we beat them.
Rooney1987 said:
None of the papers and radio I read/listen to are saying that. Sure they think that Oz will win, which is hardly surprising. I think t was McGrath who said they will win 5-0, he also added that he thinks that anbout every game and series he goes into. There are plenty of critics here for the ageing Aussie team and Pontin's captaincy. Don't believe everything you read in the English media.

I typed that when I saw the headline 'How did we lose the ashes to this lot' after england lost to your b-team(whatever the team is called) and it was heydan who said that england are a 1 man team. Saying that the Aussies should win england will struggle with injuries to key players and other out of form.
What are the Aussie media saying about england chances and the injuires.
Plechazunga said:
No need to panic just yet. Harmy returned to form and even Pieterson and Flinthoff have hit half centuries against an attack incl. McGrath, Lee and Bracken.

I agree - this is all going to end in tears!
It's so harsh that we have to play the cnuts in OZ already...we've barely had time to come to terms with the fact of holding the ashes
They're like kids who've just lost at something..."Rematch!!!"

just so you know, if we lose its because of plech and his love for cocks
Shut it, The Red Flag
What a lot of negativity.
Over the past 3 years England haven proven their resiliance. England are a quality test side and will be very difficult to beat. Mark my words...

I dont think its going to be as easy for Australia as some people think. I still theres cracks now in this side which England exposed last time around. If England play as well close to how well they did last time, its going to be close.
Trescothick has lost his marbles.
Gone home and out for the summer.

Oi mjdj, isn't Bracken related to you?Or am I mistaking you for someone else?
Huge blow for england but this is getting ridicules all the fecking players are getting injured.

Trescothic is neither nervous nor on his way home.
Honest
Honest
Plechazunga said:
Give him some pads, gloves and a bat and he can open the batting for England.
Oirishman Ed Joyce has been picked to replace Tres-there’s only 2 Trescothicks-cothick. We now have Zimbabweans, South Africans, Australians, Indians, Welsh and Irish playing for England.
Is there actually any English playing?

Rams said:
Who are the Zimbabweans, Australians and Welsh players. I know Pietersen is from South Africa and Panesar is English just Indian family.
Rooney1987 said:
Alright, so I was exaggerating a little….
Fletcher – Zimbabwe
Strauss – SA
Pieterson – SA
Mahmood – Pakistan
Monty – India
Joyce – Ireland
Jones – Wales
Rams said:
Fletcher is not a player. Strauss is not from SA is he give me some proof. Plus Mahmood and Monty are english.
Rams said:
Mahmood's a Bolton lad and Panesar's from LutonJones is from Papua New Guinea
Rooney1987 said:
Though Mahmood & Monty were born in England, both could have chosen to play for Pakistan and India respectively.

I stand corrected
Fletcher's picked Geraint Jones and the King of Spain...feck
Does anyone except Rams think we have a chance?
Differences from last year: no Vaughn, no Tresco, no Jones, Flintoff on the way back from injury and saddled with the captaincy.
That's a series of massive blows, plus we're away from home and the Aussies are angry. I don't see us winning a match.
