    Selection was wrong again.
    Wood, if fit, definitely should have played as our attack is so samey.

    We just keep getting too much wrong.

    Difficult having to take 20 wickets let alone 22 or 24 because chances are dropped....

    You can see it now that Australia will bat all day tomorrow rack up 550ish then declare making England bat for an hour and we finish the day 30 odd for 4.....

    :emoticon-0146-punch I've had enough of this series already, what with Warner and Labuchagne having done a deal with the devil and our inability to catch the ball. Just too many basic errors, it's looking like a 5-0 job and the tail between the legs I'm afraid

    You couldn't make it up. Robinson gets Labuschagne caught behind with his first ball of the day - but it's a no-ball!

    Just about ****ing sums it up ! This is the tour of self infliction, absolutely pathetic. The only wickets we ****ing get are off no balls. Labuchagne really is the luckiest most annoying penis on the planet, he's moved above Scott Parker on my most want to punch list. Yet more brandy required now ffs

    352 -5, Smith crab walking his way towards a ton, but could be worse.

    Sadly our chances of a draw depend on our batting. Oh dear.

    They'll probably declare leaving England 20 overs to bat in a very tough last session.

    Anderson has sadly made no impression so far this test.
    Can't go on forever.

    As with many ashes tours of Australia, I'm fast approaching complete apathy.

    Compared to the Aussies, our fielding is very similar to overweight old blokes playing Sunday cricket.

    Embarrassing.

    I think we may be witnessing the end of a few test match careers here.

    Burns ought to consider a career that doesn't involve fielding in a game of cricket.
