What a huge pity. After Samantha’s great equaliser, Carpenter’s mistake led to 1-2 and curtains. Was Kerr’s missed volley when it was still 1-1? Congratulations to England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 though - great possession game, especially in the first half. I thought the miss was when already 2-1 down, but agree e...

But it's rubbish so not worthwhile.

It's worthwhile to enough (others) so that's enough for me too.

Facts dont lie. Currently Australia - 3/5 World titles - Ranked top in 3/5 ICC rankings - Ranked above england in 4/5 ICC rankings. - Current Ashes holder for the last 6 years (which as we all know is the pinnacle of all cricket). england - 2 trophies - Ranked above Australia in 1 ranking - Zero nu...

I couldn't care less if for the next 20 years we keep belting you at home a drawing away, whilst winning the odd test championship in between.

Around here it does.

Matters not one whit. Lucky (for you) that they don't aggregate home and away like in football. You can at least claim home draws as some sort of "victory" at present, even though that still doesn't give you the trophy to play with. :D Draws are draws, not victories. Of course it matters....

And win well, best poms can do is draw We have won more recently in australia than australia have won in England. Matters not one whit. Lucky (for you) that they don't aggregate home and away like in football. You can at least claim home draws as some sort of "victory" at present, even th...

Are there any worthwhile sports that australia are currently better than England at.

We couldn't think of any.

Whingeing - not really a sport but you master it time and time again.

Strange decision (in my opinion) by the so called 'Green Brigade' section of the Celtic support to body swerve the recent testimonial game v Athletico Bilbao in recognition of James Forrest's loyal service. Apparently the reason given for the boycott was in protest against the Club hiring Brendan R...

What did england win? The same as the australians. Which was what? Two tests each but they were really lucky in their two and only won the second one by dubious sportsmanship and the 4th was only drawn because of rain when we were killing them so we’re very unlucky not to have won that one and so s...

There is literally nothing the Aussies won’t complain about and the hilarious part is they don’t even realise it Yes, carrying the trophies all the way back home is a bit of a burden. :thumbup: What the replica urn, that tacky little thing.

Well, usually you do have to wait 80 overs before getting a new ball. ;-) Strange how the aussies didn't seem to care when Cummins got the ball changed though. Toooooo easy. :-) Ashes trophy ours (still) & World Test Champions! :thumbup: If that was just a wind up then well played. Hard to tell...

Successful tour. Won world test championship and retained the ashes. Looking forward to the next 4 or 5 nil win here next time to keep in with the norm.
