The Official Brisbane Test Thread

I tipped that the Poms are Tossers. Got that one right. :)

I tip that England will be 3 for 112 at lunch on day 3.

Did anyone see the Barmy Army? Might need a search party?

Beny!, pace yersel' lad. Its still 2 1/2hrs till play. As Geoff Boycott always said, "Ye've got to graaaft an innings son"!

I've been ready to go since 5.30am. Lets go cmon what we waiting for?

Gotta rip into the Poms when you have a chance like this.

I think Harmison was last seen rowing out to the Kiwi icebergs to hide?

Ha! Ha! Ha!.:D

Yep, I'm wondering how Harmlesson will pull up this morning!

Cheers,

My tip is that punter will either be out 1st ball or he'll make 300+. Australia will declare at 7/650 at Tea. Poms will be all out for 76 (Flintoff n.o 63), follow on and be all out for 98 (Flintoff n.o. 54) in the 2nd with 12 mins of play to spare. Flintoff will resign and the Barmy Rabble will eat Harmimself. In other words a 2 day test. :D

England fightback.

Australia all out 463

England 191 for 3

Cheers

I'll go Australia bat 'till an hour before stumps then declare at 6/580.

Poms will be 4/48 at stumps. :D

rating them a bit high aren't you ?:D

It often happens that when 2 batsmen who are well set, begin again the next morning with great hopes for a huge score, one or both go quickly. I think one of them will be out before 3 overs are bowled, and Freddy will get him.

then, another quick kill as the 'Pup' goes cheaply (again), before Gilly blasts a quick 50, Lee and the others have a go and we declare or are all out at tea.

Edit at 12.18pm: Oh well, it was a nice theory at the time. :D The Pup will still go cheaply.

Clever bugrs, I see it all now, throw a series in the old Dart to get the interest up.

Heard a pommy comentater say he arrived yesterday before 10 and the place was packed.

So definately worked well.

Explains how they managed to win last time.

Good thing these guys live in Engerland, who else but Freddie would get a guernsey if they played out here?

Hussey gone.
4/407



I told you it would be Freddy. ;)

Seems Freddie is the only talent there?

Harmison's loses his line again and places another wide three feet outside Ponting's off-stump. Weirdly he's not giving up many runs because none of the batsmen can reach any of his deliveries.
