| Well dont worry, the Mexican waves havent been banned at Adelaide Oval (the most beautiful cricket ground in the world!) The Barmy army is a great invention, it makes for easier identification of the enemy, plus the sullen look they get at the end of the game makes your day. Sorry Poms but you are the enemy. Even if you dont want to be. KiwIs arent far behind. AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!!! |

| Damn right! There's no point in playing sport if you don't intend to win!

| Senior Member | We aren't the enemy, you are. It's our damn sport I actually dont really mind if we lose. I like a lot of the Aussies - Ponting, Langer, Hussey, Lee, Gillespie, Clarke and Katich but he wasnt selected... The Aussies are the best side in the world and losing to them isnt that bigger deal for me...I expect us to lose |

| Senior Member | it's the principle of the thing, they should have more respect for the nation that made them what they are!

| Senior Member | We are not criminals. we choose to beat you at sports the English invent because its our duty to show the world that us former colonials wrap up your arses in games you lot invented. not our fault that mostly poms are so piss poor when it comes to sport hahaha |

| Made us what we are??? Pom influence ended in 1915 in a hell hole named Gallipoli, the nail in the cofin was Churchill with his placing secondary importance on the defence of our nation in 1942. Should be a good match though, weather will be a lot cooler this weekend. Heard last night they (poms) were planning on playing some spinners? Why? Adelaide suits pace... |

| Senior Member | Well cricket is beyond the scope of most in North America but we won't go there. yes Rugby Union is a great game i agree but so is Rugby League which my mates in Victoria South Australia and Western Australia might not agree with. However as for Cricket the idea is to defeat the Poms (English) so its not boring to us pbfoot |

Cricket is only boring to people who don't understand the game, I personally can't get enough of it! I go to every Redbacks game I can and already have my Australia Day ODI tickets, can't wait!

| "World Traveller" ![]() | I prefer Union over League but that is probably due to be involved (playing/watching/bit of coaching) it for 12 years... Anyway England were 266-3 at stumps on the first day. Collingwood 98* and Pietersen 60*

| Hmmm throwing the ball backwards makes no sence to me Im affraid... However I do love to watch rugby (either code) in pubs. Good atmosphere! As much as I love cricket, AFL is my true love. The game of the gods! The only good thing about a rainless winter! |
