I dont mind the midnight feeds for young Nathan when the Ashes is on, I kind of dragged it out for 4 hours last Saturday

 

I might stay up tonight to watch it and sleep tomorrow

 

I'm knackered


Please don't let us throw away the win. With one game drawn and a win possible in the game, that only leaves 3 matches left with them needing to win at least 2.

No pressure on Ponting then

 

KP's put the nervous 90's behind him and only gone and got a century

 

Shame that the Essex boy has gone but that was a damn fine catch.

 

C'Mon England

 

KP was an absolute joy to watch last night, back to his very very best, the guy made the game look oh so easy, such exquisite technique at times, classy, and sublime.
Looks like he has sorted his head out so credit where credit is due.

We have won the Ashes my friends, the Aussies are dead and burried, having watched them at close quarters for 2 years they have got worse and worse still, we should breeze this series, withstanding groundsmen and dull pitches of course.

KP to hit a triple ton, Swanny to take a 10 fer

 

Ponting was out of ideas, panicky field placings that kp easily adapted to. As you say, some exquisite shots from kp and even Bell (and you know how much it hurts to admit that!)

Xavier Doherty has been useless and even the hat trick hero Siddle has done nothing.

Get another 50 on the board and let's get to the new ball and put them to the sword.

 

626 declared!!

KP was bold, and out!!!

An easy 69 added tonight though.

 

Who stuck the bloody bails on!

 

Who can smell a win then boys

 

Champagne Cricket from King Jimmy

 

I thought they should of declared a bit earlier but then again what would I know

 

This is brilliant..

I've never seen a ball spin so much but end up going straight, neither had young Xavier. That's what you get for having a girls name mate

 

Nice one swanny

 

1-0

3 matches left and the Aussies have to win 2 of them. Doesn't look likely with the form they are showing at the moment.

England's 100th Ashes win.

 

I'm LOVING the look on the odious Ponting's face.

Whinging Aussies, I told them they whinge far more than we ever did, if ever proof was needed some nice comments from over the 5 days

 

So was this, although not related worth a post

This article is absolutely brilliant, the comments underneath are better

Not a bad start last night was it

Shame they were allowed to fight back but they must have been panicking when the first 4 wickets fell and they did well to steady themselves.

Anyone dare to suggest a victory yet

 

PMSL


I bet Tremlett is having trouble sleeping tonight, 3 wickets on his recall what a dream start

 

The best of our bowlers from what I saw

Fantastic catch by our best fielder(and he has been for a number of years) to take Ponting.

Did you see the moment Johnson sniped at Jimmy "You're supposed to be taking wickets mate" next ball Jimmy obliges, turns to Johnson and puts his finger to his lips "Sshhhh" Quality

 

It was amazing. I hear the "catch of the series" competition is closed already

I had been thinking that there hasn't appeared to be as much sledging going on but just put that down to the Aussies generally being in a bad mood

 

Well the wheel has fallen off now!
