So, which of you Hawk fans are gonna be at the game?
I know for a fact that straight after I've wasted a couple hours of my life on a Biology exam, I'm gonna be running towards the cricket as fast as I can.

England named an unchanged lineup! How adventurous of them!!! They needed to bring some more variation into the attack if they wanted any chance! Poor decision IMO.
I can't believe how good Clark is...I expected 1 or 2 for 300 on this pitch.
Arrrgh wtf is this, 3/257. :mad:

gonna be a draw can see it happening
the poms will go in chirping after their score of 450 and then australia will come out and make 500 with 1 and half days to go.

Ya, they finish very late down here.
Not a great day of cricket. Looks like a draw. :(
Terrific first day from the Poms. Didn't lose too many wickets and look like (providing KP stays in), that they could make 300-350 today.
Problem is, as the pitch wears down, they actually would have liked to have a decent spinner exposing the cracks.
That's where Monty Panesar should have stepped in.
1/8, wow how awesome. How we can go without getting a wicket for about 4 sessions and england get one in the second over? This is extremely lame.

i hope it remains 1-0 until the final test, or if the poms can win one and we win the other so its 2-1, means poms will be trying for the win at all costs in sydney to retain the urn
I hope we bowl the poms out wiuth a lead of 200 and chase it down after lunch. Then win the next 3 tests by an innings and 400 runs. Screw a good contest I want them to suffer.
Yes, we won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How the hell did we do that, I will remember this match forever:D

Great win. The Poms seemed to fall apart with their batting today.
I was speaking with a couple of guys at work, and was saying to them that I thought the Aussies would go for the win.
Even with a required run rate of 4.66 per over, I always thought it was gettable.

Awesome effort.:thumbsu:
Incredible result.
Turned on the radio around five o'clock, expecting to hear it petering out to a draw, but somehow they were counting down the runs for a win.
Warne once again showed he's an all-time great. Ponting and Hussey were inspirational.
Sadly though it has killed the series :(

Yes, I was one of them. I loved it when "Pie"tersen threw the 4 overthrows after they ran 3. It was so stupid, and the crowd really gave it to him.
