Like the 112 runs lead. However I'd let Jof get a 50 to see him sconed on the lid and in the balls.
Can't have everything..well done Oz

One decent batting performance from retaining the Ashes.

As long as happy keeps his gob shut..

Good luck. We can only hope that the Bundy puts him to sleep...

Warner lotto...

The scores or should I say non scores make you think the game was played on an uncovered wicket like they did in the really early days of the game. Either that or the poms are totally useless. If I was captain I'd bat for half a session to go out and smash a quick 80 or so runs then declare and have the game over in 2 days.

What's a winning lead ......300 ??

 

[happy_tiger]

I think we need to make a rule change for the umpires

When a team uses a review and it is wasted ...umpire should be able to give the team the bird

 

[Fitzy05]

I like Cummins going at Jof. Shame it ended so soon with Jof putting up the periscope.
Archer had to go off with cramps for 40 mins leaving England with a bowler down.

New Head got a Jaffa from Broad but he still keeps getting out the same way. Around the wicket and he's gone.
He might need to work on that.
Harris maybe dropped when Smith comes back.Might be a bit harsh on Harris after one Test. some thought Bancroft was hard done by being dropped after two tests.
Khawaja's only decent recent score was in Tasmania when we already had 300 on the board..and that was a while ago.

I think Wade and Paine have just done enough.

200 is enough.

Got enough now I reckon. They’ll come out swinging tonight then knock the Poms over within the day.

 

[Geo]

You blokes have learnt nothing..happy can bring down Phar Lap in a 1 horse race..

It's only day 3..the Poms will have the best of the batting conditions..Another 150 would be good..demoralise them

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Poms only chance is if the pitch flattens out. Then, they’re maybe half a chance. They’re batting is shot and worse than the Aussies, which I never thought was conceivable. Roy has no defensive technique at all, Root batting out of position, Denly unproven. They’re a mess.

Mr Snuffleupagas is calling Geo

Not writing the Poms off .....Root is due and Stokes is a fighter

Nah I honestly think we need at least 300. Every chance that the poms will have 8 sessions to chase it down and if the pitch and weather takes the bowlers out of the contest they are well in it.
