Anderson is a stupid mouthy fluffybunny who should shut his mouth before he gets a deserved broken arm

Their 4th choice seamer will bowl better than their first choice.

England suck. Anderson is not as good as he thinks he is. Not even his team mates like him.

Starting on the gin early today?

No. Wine? Yes

I still remember when Jimmy was shit and could only take wickets against us.

Still mouthy.

Good work on the wine, I have yet to start as the bloody family are being demanding of my time. Bah! Christmas!

Yeah Jimmy can be a bit gobby, but then fast bowler=mouthy fucker. It’s like being surprised when a scrum half turns out to be an annoying little prick.

I agree about all that is being said about Anderson but in saying that this vid is still awesome. Probably because Johnson is an even bigger piston wristed gibbon.

MajorRage

Surprised about the Anderson hate ...

Enjoy watching him bowl and never thought he came across badly

MN5

Warner seeing it like a beach ball. 100 today for sure.

Hugh Jackman is commentating and I'm certain Mark Nicholas wants to blow him.

Thank goodness England went in with only one injury enforced changed, or results might start to get really bad for them.......

No Quarter

I was about to make a post lamenting the absolute road of a pitch but realised England will likely get skittled for 200 odd so it's unlikely to matter.

MN5

Oz will only need to bat once. Bancroft looking pedestrian but he's holding up his end at least. Warner looking set for a massive score.

Duluth

Is there any online radio commentary that isn’t geo blocked in nz?

Edit - found one, had to register on cricket.com.au

Warner caught off the new bloke for 99.

....and it's a no ball.

Unbelievable.

Chris B.

Curran has a chip.

Warner should be laughing in that fuckwit's face. Jesus wept!!!

Been watching all day and I'm fairly sure that's the first no ball of the innings. Talk about a worst possible time.

@mn5 often wonder if a few don't go under the radar because they're NOT wicket balls.

But anyway, sucked in.

My thoughts as well. Giving Warner a life on 99 isn't wise.

Warner should be disappointed. He only punished the Poms for 4 runs from the no ball.

No Quarter

The lesbian is having an absolute field day against this pop gun English attack. Similar to what Kohli did to Sri Lanka. His average is getting astronomical.

Yeah his stats are just ridiculous quite frankly. He's some player. Test average over 63 now?

88,000 in for an Ashes Boxing Day Test with a ground holding near 100k. That's disappointing but probably expected.

Game has fluttered along without much action the last two sessions.

Donsteppa

Three wickets in 87 overs so far today. It beggars belief that Jimmy Anderson feels in any position to comment on the depth of the Australian bowling attack...

Isn't that one of the highest attendances ever for a boxing day test on day 1?

NTA

@hydro11 don't know exactly but being Ashes, I'd expect over 90k. Maybe I was taken in by Bill Lawry and Shane Warne wanking on about 95k being there because FUCKEN VICTORIA MAYYYYYYTE!!!
