Just go the tonk Mitch.
One England implosion and one rain affected draw is very possible.Don't sweat it everyone, this is why you have a five test series. Just need a draw and a win from here. Easily done.

While we bowled shite the batters set this loss up yesterday. The same in Cardiff. They need to be flogged.

As long as Voges and Clarke aren't there for starters!
The Poms know that they just have to prepare good bowling wickets from now on and we won't score runs.

Needs to come under scrutiny for his batting, not a pretty standard decision to bat first. Not as if it was a minefield it's just been arrogant and lazy batting.

First test lost in 2 days since the 1800's for Australia, will cut deeper than you could ever imagine.

Just take a bite
A drawn series is too England a way to retain the ashes for me, if you know what I mean.Don't sweat it everyone, this is why you have a five test series. Just need a draw and a win from here. Easily done.

Who is not a test cricketer? I think Mitch Marsh isn't. Neither is Starc. Siddle is what Australian cricket stands for, heart, desire, willing to fight. He needs to come in for Starc. Mitch Marsh may need to go, but for who? Shane Watson? No, probably Marsh. We have not got a pure batsmen to bring in. Which is so dumb. We may be playing a batsmen short.

Remember how England went to s**t after Amazing Adelaide? Same will happen to us. You just lose all confidence in yourself.Don't sweat it everyone, this is why you have a five test series. Just need a draw and a win from here. Easily done.
Double figures 
We are 6 down after just 28 overs and it's the next day without as much cloud, no matter what we did first at some point we needed runs on a green deck or we lose the match.

If this is what it takes for Clarke to retire then so be it.

Anyone see similarities between Mitch Marsh and Ben Stokes?
Big strapping lads who are regarded as 'all rounders' despite the bowling side of things leaving a lot to be desired?

People have a short memory of Siddle. He was woeful like Haddin for over 12 months. He'll be more economical then Starc but their will just as much pressure on haze and Johnson.
Our bowlers are not the problem here. We came into the series carrying known problems. They dropped two of them after the first loss (I wouldn't put it past them to bring Watto back) but the experienced players in the middle order have been dismal.
