Filth and Geelong.

Because the filth breed like flies and have not learnt to swarm down the highway and maggotize a place more than a few clicks from filth park, like the MCG.

Wonder if the coaches are banged up.

No goals in 3rd quarter. Hopefully go on in last quarter and have comfortable win.

Same old problems.

I’m actually not going tonight. ☹️
I have to do that thing, what’s it called again, oh yeah… parenting. 😁

My son is performing at his school music festival tonight and really wants me to be there. Besides that, it’s his 18th birthday today.

If I had to choose one match I can’t attend this’d be it. I’m not exactly lamenting being unable to go to Mordor to be treated like scum by the most unwelcoming ground staff on the planet in the most inhospitable arena on the planet with the most hostile hosts on the planet. 

Have you never been to filth park, windy hill or moorabin ?

I hate Geelong.

7 runs behind so evenly poised but I can't see us winning.

We have to cash in on this wicket.  But patience is needed as they've picked 3 quicks who can bowl tight.  And Moeen & Root won't give much away either

We're still chasing close on 400 but may need 500+ to gain an advantage (batting 4th and all that)

Edit:  now 3-67 with England well on top

No not looking good. Head will have to bat out of his skin if we are going to begin saving this.

Correct and Bairstow chimed in with a decent score as well.  The free scoring kept on all day and may well continue tonight

All our batsmen will be eyeing off a big score on this track ... I was a little surprised at Stokes' declaration but time will tell

Was surprised at Stokes declaration as well but it is a bold move. If we bat well and long it  may look silly but if we fail then there will be plenty of time for them to win. I don't think their bowling attack is that good, especially if it stays dry and clear, so I would like to see us bat for close to 2 days if possible to aid in snuffing them out.

Freo were pathetic. 70 point loss to GWS is good riddance to them for this season.

England looked like they were going to rack up a big score in quick time but now they're in trouble ... just goes to show how 1 wicket changes things (specifically the wicket that fell right on lunchtime)

Lyon & Hazlewood both bowling very well

True. That Stokes dismisal was huge. As usual Root will be the big problem. He is a class act.

Yep, it's a road but it might turn later on in the match.  Regardless, the spinners might get a bit of work anyway

Travis Head could be handy with his offies and we've got 3 part-time leggies. The batsmen seem to be handling the quicks ok

Edit: And right on cue Scotty Boland grabs a wicket right on lunch.  Nice delivery too

Made the match more interesting now it would be nice to get that Brooks out early than give him a good head start. Lyon will be the one.

The Ashes?

Think it’s a good game so far. 🤷🏻‍♂️

You must be stoned if you think the cricket is a good.

What a dud pitch for  the first ashes test. Made for batting but we will see what the spinners do later.

Footy and cricket a non event this evening.

Hate to say it but the SA filth looked alright.

Good.

Oliver, Petty and Bowey in if all available. Spargo and ANB out and 1 other but who if petty is available.

Well that win greatly helped me over come my recent doubts. Good solid performance but I will leave the kicking for goal at the wayside for now.

Pure MFCSS around here this morning.

I hate the filth but for the life of me I can't see us winning. We are not playing good footy.
