Root speaking rather well here, was given every chance to make excuses but owned the loss and gave the Aussies the credit they deserved.

Yep there's not really a weakness there. They may make runs at times but it will always be hard work. None of our bowlers are easy to get away and are all happy to probe away.
Probably same as you, thinking about Steve SmithBut hyped for sleep
Might see what Mrs Biggie is up too
Great win.
Must be said that England were handicapped by losing Anderson, perhaps not enough made of it.
What must also be said is that Australia showed some grit whereas England did not.
England were very poor once Australia got a bit of a sniff.
Great result for the series, but also for Aus cricket. Reckon the side has won the public back over, they've certainly won me over.
You just felt like we have options when it comes to pitches. Prepare a greentop and Cummins, Patto and Siddle will eat them alive. Prepare a raging turner and we will see Lyon dominate ala first 2 tests in India. Maybe a dry pitch I suppose...
Best bet is to prepare a highway so their batting doesn’t get exposed. But it will likely end up in a draw as Warner will potentially destroy the bowlers on a road. I dunno.
Boo him again you flogs lol

Whilst a test match goes for 5 times longer than an ODI, it feels 100 times bigger when winning.
For those interested, Nasser Hussain showed a graphic yesterday while we were batting:
Day 4 batting average (at Edgebaston over the last 20+ years): 40
Day 5: 21
We've got a good sniff here if the pitch rapidly deteriorates as expected
