Think my favourite bit was on Sat (i think) when Ponting took a ball right into that whining mouth of his :P haha only joking!
fransavarese
Sas, you r a bigger man than I...

Out of interest, is Ponting under pressure now down under? Do you think he'll still be skippering when we come visit you down under?
fransavarese
liking the sportmanship!! it was a tight series and will forever be remembered as one of the great ashes series in my opinion! both the drawn matches could have gone to you or us (in that order)!
Can't wait until u stamp your authority back on your home turf in a few years n silence us, haha
GoneRoverBoard
no chance GRB! We are heading over there to assert our dominance! lol
Mikey D
Sas - what do you mean 'lucky'? Our lads played well in the last test, yours played well in the one before, and we should have beaten you in the third. It was however a great contest this time round and I'm looking forward to winter 2010!
FreidelNo.1
lol friedel......i think every other pommy on the site has acknowledged the luck!!!,,,and yes GRB, we will stamp back our authority when u come down under.....I dont think Ponting is under pressure, he doesnt have much longer left nyways
sasman
We were lucky for certain in places but we were the ones that raised our game when it matters. the Aussies didnt do that. England rarely do that so for that alone we are worthy winners.
Mikey D
blah blah blah blah......just accept my congratulations and move on hahaha
sasman
raised your game? Broad learnt how to bowl for a session and thats about all of it... hmm but seriously it has been a very good series. I think Punter is going to be ok as captain. He's done enough to ensure that when he leaves, it will be on his terms. At least i hope haha
retroflair31
I accept your humbleness guys! lol. And Broad learnt how to swing the game our way for one decisive time. cheers guys!
