normally at this stage of a series i'd be saying "what am i going to do with myself when the cricket finishes?"
obviously now we're all just thinking "thank god it's (soon to be) over"
You just have to laugh at this point
That clown Silverwood has to go. Absolutely abject series from England.
Has to go down as our worst ever tour. Even in the 5-0 we showed more fight.
Really it should have been 5-0. Say what you want about showing fight in Sydney, but we were lucky to avoid defeat there as well.

Pope this series:
35
4
5
4
14
5
average 11
----------------------------------------------------------------------
England answer is drop players and then recall them after a few games despite playing absolutely no cricket in between matches.
Pope is absolute pony buy wil lkeep getting picked.
Sibley.must be thinking that God I got dropped otherwise they will blame me as usual.
I think Stokes shouldn't be immune from criticism. Very poor tour and doesn't really turn up regularly considering how good he can be.
I remember last year when games in India were all over in 3 days yet everyone blamed the pitches (which weren't great). Yet the sames been happening in Australia.
Maybe just maybe it's the absolute shambolic England batters who are the problem bar Root.

Irrelevant that Warner is out. Australia have won already
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe but if England go crazy tonight and get another 3/4 wickets you never know
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Absolute best we can hope for is bowling out Aus for 150. I couldn’t see us chasing 270 odd to win
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Knew it. 68-0 to 124 all out.
What a bunch of gutless losers.

Massively overrated cricketer if we are being honest. He can’t spend the rest of his career living off that one good innings. He looks as spineless as the rest of that batting line up and although he’s an all rounder, he’s a batsman that bowls a bit.
The worse Engkand side ever. A team of pub players.

Twilight of his test career I feel, bloke is puffing constantly and is full of injuries. Will probably pack in bowling soon
wow
Just went to check how England were getting on after not checking for a while... Suddenly we're all out

Harsh to say living off that one innings, like it’s the only time he’s turned up. But agree, should still be criticised.
Going thought the 1990s thinking we will never be as bad as this at batting.. who would have thought
Without a doubt the worst England test team I’ve seen in my lifetime.
Mentioning Stokes remember that 250 he got in SA?? people seem to forget it was a very flat pitch and SA got over 700. England almost lost the game were hanging on in the end. South Africa ran out of time

Thank fack it's over. Major changes inevitable. We'll see if anything actually gets done.
Looks like McGrath has spent a bit too long on the sunbed
What?! Was following the o.b.o. and left off with England looking like they might even be in with a chance of winning it tomorrow. How on earth did the possibility ever cross my mind?!

Exactly the same here - pretty much checked back in to see how many they had left to add tomorrow!
