    Default The Ashes are ours again...

    Australia last held the Ashes in 2006, Labor came to power in 2007... in 2013 the Coalition are back and we win the Ashes

    Coincidence?... I think not
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    Well, Abbot , Hockey , Morrison et al, are certainly good with spin, especially on a sticky wicket.

    I was watching this myself and when it was 9 wickets down I started typing out an SMS to my manager who is from the UK. I had to reword it before I sent the SMS.

    Thumbs up

    We have won well. Lots of good performances from our boys but some promising
    players emerging in the English side - Carberry and Stokes being the standouts
    along with Joe Root.

    Be interesting to see if the team can provide another 5 zip result. They certainly
    seem capable of doing so.
