Finally!

Im suprised you answered him Tyrone. After all he's a self proclaimed know it all.

Yet another step towards a 5-0 defeat barring a miracle. A thoroughly depressing tour by England.

Its looking like another 5 zip is on the cards.

Hopefully not a Fox link: http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CC0QqQIwAQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.watfordobserver.co.uk%2Fsport%2F10937458.Finn_to_leave_Australia__for_his_own_good_%2F&ei=s2PWUq3PGo7-oQSwkYHYDQ&usg=AFQjCNEQhi10BrkIg-YysOcNFTVZ4LWk5w He seems to have struggled since the hitting of the bails issue.

Or maybe a guy who has no interest in cricket..but has reached a low point in his life. Just as well Prior and Broad were walking past him.

Another bad match for England.

Phone Lifeline Dave...they might care. Btw are you suggesting James Sutherland was lying?

No Dave I dont know where to get the leak from ..please provide a link. Haddin was dropped due to poor form..its terrible what his daughter went through but Sutherland stated he was dropped due to poor form. His overzealous appealing for non dismissals is akin to cheating.

If you dont like the link by the chief executive theres not much I can say Dave.

Look Dave..I hope the players havent got over it. I repeat...im still waiting for the leaking of the alleged English sledging and ill gladly listen to it. Bailey should show a bit of respect as hes done little apart from one over in Perth. The Aussies can only give it when on top...they cant take it or laugh about it when the shoes on the other foot.

February 2012 ...Haddin dropped due to form... http://m.foxsports.com.au/cricket/australia/cricket-australia-boss-james-sutherland-confirms-wicketkeeper-brad-haddin-dropped-due-to-poor-form/story-fn2mcu3x-1226274004796

Bailey stood there grinning and sledging from short leg. As if he was a Test veteran...when hes done sweet FA at Test level. No I didnt watch the ABC programme...ive had enough of Australian cricketers this summer. Btw Dave..when is Channel 9 releasing the recordings of England sledging..it'll be a f.cking beauty lol

No doubt some of the younger England players will remember the abuse the likes of Haddin, Johnson and pitbull Warner have dished out. Will be interesting to see Stokes and Broad renew aquaintance with an ageing Johnson and the sloggers from NSW..although im guessing Haddin will have been put out to pasture by 2015.

Let me ask you something Dave..do you think Haddin and Warner are good role models for young cricketers?

From BBC sport: ASHES IN NUMBERS 6 - Times England dismissed for under 200. 1 - Century partnership by England, seven fewer than Australia. 28 - Runs scored by George Bailey in a single James Anderson over in Perth, equalling the world record. 0 - Lbw dismissals by England in the first four Tests. 80 - Graeme Swann's bowling average when he retired after the third Test. 82 - Pages in England's 'essential' touring menu, leaked prior to the series. ASHES IN NUMBERS 37 - Most wickets in the series, by Australia's Mitchell Johnson, at 13.97. 21 - Most wickets by an England bowler, Stuart Broad at 27.52. 10 - Centuries scored by Australia. 1 - Century scored by England. 255 - England's highest first innings total. 570 - Australia's highest first innings total - for nine, declared. ASHES IN NUMBERS 9 - Australia's winless run in Tests prior to the series. 18 - Players used by England. There were 17 in the original touring party. 4 - Number of England debutants. 11 - Players used by Australia, only the fourth side to go unchanged through a five-match Test series. 30.8 - Average age of the Australia XI at the end of the series. 523 - Runs by Australia's David Warner, the top scorer in the series. 294 - Runs by England's top scorer, Kevin Pietersen.

Totally embarassing. A complete and utter shambles. Gutless capitulation except for Broad and Stokes.

Agree. Losing 5 nil in 2006-7 was just about bearable. But losing 5 nil to this current Australian team is just not acceptable. England have made them look so much better than they actually are.

Discard Bailey as hes not up to it. Bring back Hughes and bat him at 3. Move Watson down to 6.

Or a short one.

It seems im not alone Gordon. Perhaps it was how you wrote it..its possible you know!!

Well tbh you said the 12 of you paid £1200 to Anson Bolton..it wasnt until the next paragraph that you mentioned the Millstone. Deapite all that..I feel extremely hungry everytime I read this thread

Of Mice and Men..Those in Glass Houses.

Another nightmare day for England...well from 97 for 5 to be precise.

Dave,I'll leave it with you to prove Lehmann is an honourable and motivational character.As it is you keep going back to previous series. Happy New Year Dave..come on South Africa.
