    Andrew Hilditch Jamie Cox possibly even Murv Hughes all need the sack.

    Ashes Series 2009

    It's quite possible that he wont have more success than Ponting if sound judgement isn't made in selections. Great captains can inspire and motivate, that's for sure. But when you're up against quality opposition and you don't have the best players available at your disposal, nothing's going to...

    Ashes Series 2009

    Just to add to that: the issue of Stuart Clark's non-inclusion through the majority of the series. Whoever called this, needs to be given the flick. It's all too convenient to level blame at a captain after a series loss, but [assuming] Ponting had no decision in the team make-up and Stuart...

    Ashes Series 2009

    The million dollar question is of course: Who else could? Sure Michael Clarke is el-capitan in waiting but with all due respect to him, i'm not sold on him being able to make the "tough, decisive calls" on the field either. He has had his share of wins as captain, so who knows, maybe this is...

    Who thinks that with England reclaiming the Ashes now, Ponting will be around for the next series (provided he's in form)? So many missed opportunities for Aus throughout the series.

    Accomodation at Newcastle

    Re: best way of getting on campus accommodation? Your chances aren't automatically slim, you just have to present your case the right way. I'm assuming you're looking at Newcastle Uni for 1st Semester 2010?

    Ashes Series 2009

    Even though we're a thousand runs behind at the moment, I'm actually enjoying watching Ponting and Hussey bat. Boundaries are flowing nicely and some nice shots. Maybe i'll reserve further judgement until the end of the day. After all, records are made to be broken, right?

    Ashes Series 2009

    Well, we are? 0/80 and need 466 more to pull off a win. Whilst it's the highest 4th innings total in Test History let alone Ashes history, for some reason I'm not writing off the Aussies yet. Don't forget, they did get 410 in their 4th innings at Lords (2nd test).

    Ashes Series 2009

    Yeah tell me about it! Even in real-time when the ball was delivered I had a serious double-take at the TV when I saw the umpire raise his finger. North and Clark both got bum decisions, lets hope England get 10. Regarding the pitch, I would have thought that they were always going to rough it...

    Would appear so, as it's definitely not going to get any easier from here on in. Wtf has happened to the pitch? Seems this was a massive toss to win.

    Aus 7/111 What. The. Hell. England will be thanking the pitch curator for this one. Can't see Aus getting 150 here. Will be extremely difficult to pull a win here.

    Ashes Series 2009

    Stumps Day 1 England 8/307. Aussies have taken the honours for the day I would think. Pitch looks like it will be a nightmare come Day 5 (assuming the test gets that far). On the topic of selections: Siddle. Had a "4 for" at the end of the day, taking the first and last wickets. Has he...
