Wadda We Sing

Its hailing in Ballarat! Ill send it on....

Were a chance here.......

....playing next year apparently.

That made me laugh....

Great pressure by May

Salem 7 disposals

ABC reporting Gawn finger, possible dislocation?

The pressure is on them..

Max V Grundy will be interesting. Max beat him well last time.

They kicked their highest score for the year or close to it last week, albiet against GC, so wont be no stroll in the park i guess. But we have a good defense and its a damp track, it wont be high scoring. What a great chance to stop them getting top 4 spot! Payback time for when they stopped us getting into the 8...

Seems fine now and im at Uni with their crappo internet, so if it works here should be fine.....thanks for your efforts Andy.

Yeah just windows 10.....never had an issue with anything on Demonland before....

Hey Andy, i was using a very good laptop, which is the same one i normally use. Its pretty up to date. The chatroom just had the loading graphic on.......never had an issue b4. Cheers.

Chatroom wont load?

Woooohoooo that was really pointless playing an injured player without a runner who just stands there and doesnt run. (sounds like a footy team i know). Forever to be remembered as The Specsavers Test.

They just lost 5/17 very close to our 5/23....Never thought that was gonna happen. Best fightback ive seen in a long, long time. Bring on Lords!

See ya later Root 66 !

Great session with the points going to Australia, and the knockout punch is coming. Looks like we will be going into the last session, which means i better go to Coles and get some more coffee. Some strange shots played by England with Roys being the most strange. Patience is a virtue. Siddle has bowled unbelievably well with no luck. Nathan Lyon right in his element. The crowd havent really turned up to support England and it was good watching Stokes getting angry at the crowd yesterday for not cheering enough. Apparently is very loud out in the middle at Edgbaston, more so than any other English ground and that was the main reason they missed Warners 1st ball missed caught behind.

Steve Smiths last 10 Ashes innings: 143 141* 40 6 239 76 102* 83 144 142 Average 139.50

Thanks Macca, its quite nasty. I even had the flu shot....so will be putting in for a refund ! Well the F1 was quite interesting. Verstappen got his long overdue first pole. He led the entire race with Hamilton stalking him. Bottas in the other Mercedes, crashed into LeClerc on lap 1 and damaged his front wing and went to last but worked his way back into 8th by the end. The Mercedes took a risk and pit stopped with 10 laps to go and went from being 0.5 sec behind, to 13 sec behind, but with fresh tires was rapidly closing the gap. Then with 4 laps to go Verstappens tyres gave out and he couldnt control the car on the corners. He tried to defend, but Hamilton got him with 2 laps to go. In the end it was very close Ferrari 27pts, Red Bull 28 & Mercedes 29. Last week we had Vettal for the fastest lap which he set twice in the last 10 laps.....then on the last lap Verstappen nailed it. This is the first year they get the extra point for fastest lap. Which might get interesting as the Championship is getting closer with the rise of Verstappen, something the sport has been crying out for since the dominance of Mercedes over the last 4 years. Its looking like he is the heir apparent. Hamilton is 35 in January and Verstappen 22. His father Jos was the only ever Dutch F1 driver. The orange crew go quite mad when he races. They have their own little company in Limburg South Holland called Verstappen Racing. I wrote them a letter once when i was over there in 2014 asking for a job painting cars (which i have done in my lifetime). To my surprise, they wrote back !! They were very polite and suggested i go to formula 3 and work my way up! I still have the letter.

Yes we need time to bowl them out... around 330 i reckon. Current odds (which is a good gauge) Australia 1.80 England 10.00 Draw 2.38. Rather radical change from 2 days ago.

A quick 50 here boys....get that lead to 300 quick smart.

Of the 600 odd runs Australia have made, Smith has made 278 or nearly half. Amazing.
