I dont think we should have declared....we don't want to be chasing 180 plus ....ten runs extra may be the difference....hope we don't learn a bad lesson like the 1st Test v the Poms when they declared at 9 for and we ran the chase down in a real tight one

I hate how this bloke is always right ....

Amazing test.

Hate losing but great for test cricket. What a shame the crowd is so poor.

As much as i want to win everything i can not get upset by the Windies winning the test.I have enjoyed watching the start of a career of a fast bowler who could be anything and Smith could possibly be the opener we hope he is.
Great win to the Windies.

For once Cricket really was the winner

The crowd is disappointing ....but it's also disappointing how Brisbane Tests aren't played during the school holidays like the other 4 Tests ....either played in November or late January now

Who cares. No one would have remembered the Aussies winning in a week. In contrast, this win will remembered for a while. Shot in the arm that Windies cricket has needed for 25 years.

Thank you GNR 4 Common Sense. Thank you for the truth. WGAF.

The Windies people are celebrating now. In that country. Are you sad cause the rich people lost? Are you sad tonight?

Windies win by 8 runs !
Some really dumb cricket by Australia
Smith got what he wanted He CARRIED THE BAT !
However I take my hat off to SHAMAR JOSEPH with possibly the greatest bowling performance in recent memory .
We were cruising at 2-113 chasing 216 to win and he comes on with a severely damaged toe and bowls 12 overs straight and gets 7 wickets at speeds near 150k
Whatever the medical team did ? Amazing - Last night couldn't walk and today wins game on his own .
What's good is that this will boost Test cricket and shows that this is real cricket better than all this Bash Crash and Smash game .
Australia need to think about our batting which looks fragile without Warner
Green very nervous starter ,Marnus a lot of low scores ,Head a golden pair
Marsh very iffy .
Summer wrap 4-1 and the loss by only 8 runs so I hope the headlines don't say
" Windies thrash Australia " or some crap like that from the Journos who prefer sensation over fact

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Some crap. Nailed it SteveC

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

In reality. They all walk away with phat wallets. Who pays them. The spectators. What's in it for you Steve?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

What is your ROI?

That’s not the reason we lost.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Baddabing Baddaboom Tucker. Again.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

We, them, us
