Who's gonna shout "NICE GARRY" every ball during Lyon's spell?

Lot of stuff and nonsense gets talked about Anderson being over the hill, to be fair we were all thinking it this time last year but since then he's averaged 17! If he stays injury free he'll do just fine, although I think Woakes and Overton may be the stars of the England attack.
Based on  the bowling in Aus
Same newspaper has Overton ahead of Ball for selection.

Is there any chance Tim Piane could be in the side for the Ashes?

Had it not been for that horror break of his finger he'd have been the man in possession of the gloves for years by now, wouldn't he?

You guys suck - you're taking all the fun out of it . You're meant to be all bright eyed , bushy tailed , brimming with confidence. ....then let Australia beat you in the Ashes ! It's no fun if you're lamenting a series loss before it's even started .  :) :D :D :D

Here's a round up of how our Australian cousins are getting along. Looks like they've only got 7.

yes yes ....this is the type of cocky confidence i want ....when oz win it will be much sweeter this way .

if the 'leaked' side is the actual side we will still win . its just that certain blokes  (like marsh and paine)dont deserve a spot and so it is annoying and wrong on principal.

Looks like it’s kicking off in the Aussie media-this time Stuart Broad is in the clear

McGill calls the selectors ‘morons’

Marvellous stuff

Wow , looks like the Fairfax media 'leaked' test side could be accurate -  both cricket australia website and espncricinfo are reporting it as such . Well , we'll have confirmation in a few hours,  i hope its all wrong and just a prank , but we'll still win regardless .
I wonder how on earth does shaun marsh get so many chances from selectors ?... it's not like he could have bribed all of them since the panel has changed so many times over the years . Maybe he mows their lawns on weekends or something .
