So true MB.Could tell when Mcgath walked out to the crease he had runs written all over his facemb64 said:We'll never know SkipperCptJonno2Madcow2005 said:Mcgrath was very unlucky.Was well on the way to pass Symond,s score ;D
mb64 said:Didn't see alot of the play yesterday.Great innings by Hussey.It shows Ponting & Hussey are the keys to our abatting even though Ponting missed out yesterday.Hayden under the pump & Langer & Clarke made reasonable scores.Symonds flashy 26 but had his chance to build an innings but went out to an ordinary ball.McGrath's decision terrible but likely to be more bad decisions with these 2 umpires.Game evenly poised at this stage.Strauss looks to be in good form so we would want to get him out early today.

Longest ever post, mb?
If we win this test, I reckon we could see half this team gone within another 5. Hanging by a thread are:
1. Gilchrist - sorry, but he's gone. Reflexes are shot. Should have gobbled the Collingwood catch. Haddin in.
2. Hayden - not enough runs. Jacques in.
3. Lee - not enough wickets. Tait or Johnson in.
4. Martyn. Already gone.
5. McGrath - not a lot left in the tank. Tait or Johnson or Hilfenhaus in.
6. Langer - Seems only to be making runs when he's under extreme personal pressure. Will hang on foir a bit, but his days are numbered.

Jaquesagree
RogersNot sure
Ponting
Clarke
Hussey
WatsonNot Convinced
PaineHaddin
Lee
Warne/CullenWarne
JohnsonOr Tait
Clark
Marsh, Cosgrove, North, Hilfenhaus, White would all be around the mark too.
