Australia v England 2nd Final - No need for a 3rd!

Well, what can I say? When Freddie does the press call he really ought to suggest that Oz put up some effective opposition. And if he could be looking at John Buchanan at the same time it would be sweet.

Ponting: You loser! You have slagged us off all winter and now you have been bitten on the arse by your own self assurance. Back to my earlier post on why we lost the Ashes....10 reasons? We didn't need 10; Oz peaked too soon and under-estimated the English spirit. Off you go to NZ with tails between your legs.

It's been a long time since we won such an important series. And, as Athers said earlier, if we can beat Oz 3 times on the bounce then we can [and should] win the World Cup.

Once again the baggy greens looked ordinary; over-trained and lack-lustre. And all this against a half-baked England made up of hasbeens and newlyborns. Hat's off to Colly again and to the whole team for sheer bloody determination to destroy that ego that has long kept Team Australia afloat.
