Stupid England batsmen for not showing enough application.

...That the Aussies managed to take 10 wickets on with only one front line spinner...

Yeah what England need is Sideshow Bob and his trundlers...I think not.

Even he'd be better than Broad. At least he'd bowl a consistent line and length and keep the scoring down.

Yet another England caption who doesn't trust his spinners to bowl in tandem for any length of time. WTF is bowling Collingwood achieving?
Who was the last England captain to have two spinners?

About as much as bowling Swann was, if we're honest.
nuggety medium pace. might snatch a wicket....

England are being given a hard lesson about how to bat on a slow flat pitch.
Yeah, Swann didn't look too clever earlier. Because he's the 'senior' spinner now it's easy to forget that he's got much less Test experience than Panesar. He should improve a lot as the match and the series progress.

Already do.
Birmingham gets first dibs on the best Welsh water.
I bet they piss in it first.

I believe they do, yes. Brummies are a queer bunch.

blah blah blah
It's true.
I had a horrible feeling this might happen. It has happened so often with England batting first and getting what we falsely believed was a good total.

OK, lesson learnt - draw.
