The Ashes 2006/07: The Perth Test Thread - Day Three.

Tight LBW goes in Haydens favour. IMO too close to give out. I know the technology says he should be gone but on the ground I think its too tight to give

Monty time!!

[south beds mikey]

Surely wants a silly point??

[south beds mikey]

We have our best bowler on but we are not giving him the field he needs. The odd 4 is irrelevent, we must press for wickets.

First over of Monty's was very flat - second over much better, had Hussey in a bit of trouble

[south beds mikey]

Sorry boys but that one was unforgivable!! No wonder Hussey averages nearly 100 if he keeps being given not out!!

I'm 8000 miles away and I gave it. It seems Rudi "if you shout and your Australian I'll give but if your a pom I wont" Koetsen.

Really wonder if that was Strauss against Warne

[Aussie-Yank]

Sorry, better check your facts - they just proved it did not hit the bat.

[south beds mikey]

Not sure about your coverage but I have seen a shot that clearly shows he did hit it!!

When it comes to checking facts perhaps you should check the run out at Adelaide when Hussey was CLEARLY run out. Or perhaps KP at Brisbane when KP was given when he was CLEARLY not out. Or maybe when Ponting was CLEARLY LBW at Adelaide but not given.

Or maybe at Adelaide when Strauss was given out caught when he CLEARLY didnt hit it or perhaps here at Perth when he also CLEARLY didnt hit it.

I quite understand these things happen but PLEASE PLEASE dont deny the obvious!!

[south beds mikey]

Please forgive me being a bit moody. The most obvious fact is that the aussies are a better team!!
