    Test The Ashes Fourth Test December 26-30 1000hrs @ The MCG

    The 19 runs we allowed for the tenth wicket in the first innings would be handy now, but this loss is on the batting. Today it was the 2 batting collapses Head/Khawaja/Carey & Green/bowlers that hurt.

    Right approach by Crawley if they’re intent on bazball, very much rode his luck when aggression early, but settled once the field had dispersed

    Test The Ashes Fourth Test December 26-30 1000hrs @ The MCG

    Would have been nice if we managed to scrape together a lead of 220-250. Hard to sustain the close your eyes and swing approach for too long before luck finally goes against you.

    I’d go Boland and Green.

    As good as Piastri lap 1 overtake was it was evident then that Norris was content for 3rd. Still reckon it was the wrong strategy, but McLaren wanting Piastri to chase down Verstappen was the opposite of what he needed to do to make the hard tyre strategy work, which was to drive slower to...

    5. Development of the McLaren car to win the constructors title. The best chance to win the constructors was to resolve Norris’ mid-year battles with the car.

    Well done McLaren, we’ve successfully undermined your own to driver to gift the golden goose a championship. Daddy’s money does pay!

    If there’s truly Papaya rules Piastri pits this lap to maintain 2nd

    Papaya rules, have to favour Norris at all cost, this time to defend Leclerc

    Too much to ask for a Russell Monaco drive through penalty. Edit: nothing, Norris kissed on the dick

    Agree, but McLaren could just as easily **** Piastri with pit strategy or something else to change positions

    Losing victory could kill Piastri’s confidence and it certainly makes his championship bid much harder. Had Piastri won with Norris 3rd, the gap between them would have been 12 points. That’s the difference between needing Norris to finish 4th vs 6th with a Piastri win next race. For Norris he...

    Just like Russell last race, the mercs make a Norris position gain easy.

    It’s more than just asking to swap positions. Off the top of my head, Melb - orders to Piastri free to race, hold positions, free to race. Monza - Part of the argument for swapping positions was Norris being dominant, but Piastri was asked to give Norris to tow to get him through Q2. Without...
