    Done it, and failed it :( Literally. Bullshit essay question....

    Had to leave early. Not all that shattered though, cause that was worth 15% I did alright in part A which was 15%, but for the unit, I've had a distinction, a high distinction and an assignment that I havent got back that I am fairly well I did well

  • told you siddle shouldve always been in the side! what a gun. haha
    Yeh I've seen Pearl Jam, too. But I can't remember the dates.

    haha, well, there we go. I have always liked Siddle. And he is one of my favourite players effort wise. But I will own up and say I though Bollinger deserved the 3rd spot. I am so glad I am wrong, cause ever since I laid eyes on siddle, I have rated him...

    Great effort...

    At this point in time, I would contemplate Bollinger for Johnson...

    Come on Aussie....

    owwwwwwwwwwwwwww shut up.. :lol::lol:


    Haha, well to celebrate, I had one beer for every wicket Siddle took today, and one shot of VOdka for every run Strauss hit. So, in total, 6 beers, zero vodkas.

    I love you Siddle...

    And he's a Victorian!!!!

    There is always a token Vic in the squad and he is always a gun.

    How many Victorians have taken hatricks in Tests?
    Quite a few, Hughes, Warne, Fleming, Siddle to name a few!

    Siddle luv ya!!!

    If Johnson doesn't take wickets I agree with PJfan31 that they should drop him and put Doug the Rug back in.
    Siddle and Douggy are excellent workhorse bowlers and very fierce!

    Doug the Rug dances pretty good to in the Vodafone commerical :lol:

    G'day yer flamin' galahs! ;)

    Got up at 4:45 to watch the opening game, and England were just 4 down. Then half an hour later, Siddle took the hat-trick! Hats off to him.

    I got up today expecting Australia to be taking full advantage of the sub-par score England finished with, but was pleasently surprised to see they were 1) behind and 2) five down. Hopefully the new ball can work some magic to remove the remaining batsmen! :)

    On this day last year, I was at the Gabba watching Australia vs West Indies, one day after a fantastic PJ show at the QSAC. Today, I woke up to minus 4 degrees and a hefty frost on my car. :cry:

    Well, hopefully Hussey and Haddin can knock off the deficit, and then the rest can build some sort of a lead.

    Been a great 2 days. England are looking very good.

    Come on Hussey

    Awesome....

    England bowled so well this morning, and should have had Hussey. But, for all those English who will complain about the decision I will say the following:

    - 2009 Ashes the poms had all(well most) of the luck and it was the Aussies who had the bad decisions including Mike Hussey caught at slip when he missed it by half a foot, so what goes around, comes around.

    - The umpire would have heard two noises. Ridiculously hard to have definitively said that it did not touch the edge.

    - If they hadn't wasted their other referrals, well they would have been able to challenge


    THe first session was the best session I have seen in a test for a long time. Great bowling by Anderson. He was unlucky.

    WE NEED TO GET AT LEAST 400 SLOWLY TO GET A DRAW HERE. :( BUT I DOUBT IT

    I jumped so high when there was that shout against strauss first ball. That looked plum. Would have loved him to have got a pair.

    Anderson was superb. SO unlucky, and yes he was out by a mile....

  • yeah seen it now...just just just by <____> that pitched not on the line .
    anderson should have had 4 ...great bowling....but saying that the battle was very good sold ...great catch by colly.

    ok so you had two massive scores. top two did ok...the rest zip..last 5 bowled out for 35ish if it was 100 this test would be won already ...
    we have to bat now for a day and a half but need to score as well.we need a minium of 400 and then bowl the same as we did ...i do think we have bowled well..bit unlucky .if the wicket fell first think on day 3 you might have only had a very small lead.

    johnson might get dropped if he does not take wickets...batting for 45 mins (19balls)and out for 0 wtf.

    more short balls please your boys cant play them. :shock: on that note i will finish
