One more thing Didley. If this was an actual mortal conflict, then I'd be the first to take Heller's view.
I'd get the fark right out of there.
So, we good mate? Hope so.

My post wasn't meant to offend you, in case you took it that way. Just a play on words.
I'm just trying to stir up our pommie colleagues. Make the forthcoming Ashes a bit more interesting. And have fun at the same time.
I'm sure they're taking it the same way.
We're all QPR mad and whilst there's no football, you've gotta do something to make the interval a bit less bland.
Looking forward to seeing more posts from you as our boys come away with the Ashes.
Nah mate, all good.

I don't like we've left out Wood, with his extra pace he offers something different and something we might well need. Praying Jimmy doesn't break down again like 4 years ago !
Yep I like Robinson, hrs a quality bowler. He doesn't bowl at a fair rate of knots though and has had fitness issues in the past. Hopefully he can bowl more extended spells now if fitter. Just feel that's Wood's extra pace would've unsettled their batsmen especially if they get in.
Are we all ready then? Up for it?
Exciting stuff, Ricky Ponting reckons it’s the biggest series since 2005. And we have to remember the Aussies haven’t won here for 22 years……huge incentives for both teams, loads of ‘traditional’ quality in the Aussie team, box of fireworks (including potential damp squibs) in the English one.
Are we sitting comfortably? Then let’s begin……

Can't wait. Hard to pick a winner really, but I'll stick with 3-2 England.
Particularly looking forward to the stream of FFSs that Hammersmith is sure to treat us to.
Can’t remember looking forward to cricket so much, also know that come 12:00 and England are 35 - 3 I’ll be wondering what the QPR kit will look like this year, blue and white hoops I reckon

Nah meant, yes.
Love the Ashes, can't wait.
If only we had Lillee & Thompson on board at present.
I saw them at their peak in 1975 at the SCG, absolutely loved it.
Ahhhh, those where the days ................ Thommo in full flight, bowling to keeper Alan Knott, Marsh behind stumps and Derek Underwood at the other end.
Dennis Lillee firing one in................

Final thoughts before the start.
Win, lose or draw, l hope it is a good, hard fought series with no issues and clear skies.
May the best & fairest team win.

He’s keeping us down at five an over!
They don’t want to play Bazball. I don’t think they get a choice though.
We've got inside their heads for a change, Big nick from Crawley through to the 'keeper and no appeal, big let off and a wry smile from Crawley.
Ok,
Only just tuned in and saw that LBW ( which was originally given not out ) ...... but in truth, was plum.
l see England have a good score and weather the opening attack, kudos to you guys.
Aussies need a quick couple of wicket to slow things down a bit.
