So was it the conditions? Us being good? The Aussies bad?

Bit of all 3, they all bowled well. To think that Bresnan and Tremlett had 8 test matches between them before this game, then it just shows how far superior we are all all departments, if smith was in the england side he would behind swann imo, eveyone on here was saying that Anderson wouldn't be affective in this series before it all started, and i know he has got 4 wickets here in helpful conditions, but he has been our best bowlers in all 3 tests, lets just hope that england learn from what they have seen so far today and don't chase the bowl and take there time, if we are 100-3 at close then we have done superb, wicket gets better obv.

batting wise, not bowling obv

Lol underprepare a green seamer - they were watering it as late as last night. All fine for aussies if they win the toss! Eng got to grit it out now, batting last wouldn't be fun as it'll go really low. Need a nice lead

[Ironside]

wtf i am on way to bed thought great i will get to listen to the aussie innings as i goto sleep and england are batting

UNREAL can see england losing a match after a start like that if they do then someone needs shooting

Much joy as I am sharing Xmas with some Australian relatives this year!

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiii

The only joke I could muster so far was " I hear the Aussies have been setting records overnight"

Pause, wait to see smug look

"most people through the turnstiles in 1 go leaving the ground"

Today could be fun!

Awesome!

Gave up after the rain break last night and never expected what we've got. Get a 200 lead without losing a wicket, stick'em back in, knock'em over for 50 and then hit the beach. We are so much better than them.

Fk me just go back and seen the score, unbelievable!!!!

In fantasy land I think we could afford to bat until at least half way through day 3, possibly a bit longer... Bat once, get a big total and have 2 and a bit days to bowl them out.

I'm just hoping we don't mess up from here and bat until at least lunch tomorrow (or is it today?)!
