      Shocking. Putting mere financial gain ahead of the opportunity of sticking one over the Aussies (who are technically the Man United of Cricket)

      looks like this is going to end as a draw unless we do some brilliant bowling! but this pitch is very much a batters pitch with it being very flat.

      Sat up til 6 this morning, watchng england collapsing like a deck of cards, to be quite honest Shane Warne was simply magic.

      England played like they were looking for the draw, ultra defensive then couldn't get themselves going when the sh*t hit the fan.

      We made about 60 runs in a total of three sessions which is just not good enough, although Strauss and Harmison wickets were not out.

      I seen England battle back by taking 2 wickets but the aussies were looking too strong ands thats when I decided to go to bed

      Can't see us retaining the ashes now!!

      Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of a draw.

      England declared way too early.  They should have carried on batting while they were playing well in the first innings.  Maybe would have had a better chance of making the Aussies follow on.

      Could not believe it when I woke up this morning.

      The Ashes are lost my friend. 

      To be honest I don't think there is a massive gulf in class but like so many sports, and Liverpool have had a problem with it this season, I think England are severely lacking in the mental attitude department.  The Aussies will be pissing themselves laughing today.

      Too right.  If he had played the first two tests we

      a) wouldn't be 2-0 down, and

      b) Zara Philips wouldn't have won Sports Personality of the Year.

      Great knock by Gilchrist.  It looks like the series could pretty much be over soon.  Surprised the Aussies declared when they did tho.
