Did you see it in the crowd during the England Australia game? 
Best laugh i've had in ages. Well, it was either laugh or cry!
Still, good to see we can still stuff the Aussies at something!

Looks like nobody in england can play can cricket. An innings and 55 runs, now that is just pathetic. And giving McGrath such an easy catch!! The goose was trying to catch it with his left hand and it landed in his right, plus he had his eyes closed

Why do they bother with Andrew Caddick ?
The bloke's just not interested and has no bottle... why does it take him sooo long to get motivated... obviously when your a Kiwi you don't get that much of a buzz from wearing an England shirt.
Give someone a go who actually tries...

The Scooby,
Just guessing but.. are you one of those footie fans that loves slagging off people that play or like cricket ?
If so, when is the last time that England footie team won anything.... I think we all know that..
If you're not then, no probs.. but I really hate it when people jump on the band wagon and slag off English cricket.
England's cricket team is rated 5th in the world... okay not as many countries playing it at the top level, but whilst we're hardly brilliant, we're not that bad..
Dave Graveney is a t00l and should be binned off though..
We're playing the best team in the world at the moment and they are head & shoulders above anybody else.... its no surprise that we're getting thumped, it would have been nice to have had a full strength team out though... I'm sure that we could have at least competed if we had...shame !
I'll still be sat up tonight watching it... hopefully we can bat first and Vaughany can belt a few... good to watch

Well said some valid points there, I for one will be watching tonight, as for calling for Hussain's resignation, FFS he is the best captain have had since Mike Brearly IMHO.
And look at those injuries!! the future is bright, Trescothick and Vaughan should go on to be the best opening pair England have had for many a year.

Jerry - Mate, i'm from New Zealand, it is my god given right to slag off England cricket
But seriously, i am a "footy" fan, but i also love cricket aswell, both playing and watching. I think what England are lacking is consistency, which in a way comes with experience. They hae some great patches of play (Michael Vaughen) especially. I am so hoping you guys can get up and get a game off the Aussis. I think Mark Butcher needs to step-up just like the last Ashes series.
