3rd Test: Australia vs South Africa, Newlands, March 1-5

Or just go to Perth?

And intercept them on their way to the East, good idea

Credit to South Africa, I couldn't see Australia lasting that long even on such a benign wicket.

Yes lets give them cred for losing by 245 runs ...awesome effort

I'm about ten minutes behind on fox, but did anyone else see the look Warney gave Smith's kid when he touched his sunnies. Shane wasn't happy

Batting out over 4 sessions after losing 3/15 is pretty impressive.

Lot more fight than most teams could put up

Running commentary highlights on the ABC now! Smitty gets a wicket! Relive all the drama l

Clarke/Steyn bitch fight on right now.

I did not account for the Perth fans, haha.
I love it when it's freezing during an Ashes tour. Go to the footy rugged up in my jacket and guernsey and hopefully see a Doggies win/cracking neutral game, then sit wrapped in a blanket/in bed/with the heater cranked up watching Test cricket and watching the Pommy crowds struggle with the heat

Do have a wood fireplace for heat here mind you, and that is magnificent! Have to make sure not to let out the occasional YES! or PISS OFF YOUR OUT! lest you wake the house mind you!

Pretty good. When Philander was given not out and the reasoning hadn't been explained. Clarke is telling Philander to stop getting treatment because apparently he didn't get hit on the hand and then Steyn trying to explain and Clarke telling him to **** off etc.

Missed it too, I'll be disappointed in the cricket world if it's not on YouTube later

Because we are shitty people, I don't know what else to tell you. We're all assholes and delight in the misfortune of others. After 30,000 posts on BF, I don't know why you so surprised at all of this

LMFAO

How do you guys hear clearly from stump mike.

Watching on foxtrel I couldn't hear much cause the stump sound wasn't up high and the dumb commentators keep talking over it.

This was just great Test-match cricket. And South Africa have finally been conquered. For the first time in five years. It needed a man on knees that need surgery to bowl two sensational deliveries in the end. That's how difficult it has been to beat South Africa. And we all knew there was only one team that could do it. It had gone missing for a while. We were just waiting for that team to come back and do it. Welcome back, Australia.

Gotta say, got the hairs up reading this.

I got all sniffly when Rhino got that last wicket.

Couldn't agree with that more. Brilliant match, brilliant series, brilliant team and individual efforts on both sides.
And for the first time in 5 years, South Africa are knocked off their perch by that trademark Australian blend of intimidation, arrogance and, most of all, just sheer execution of a plan. Lost our way a little bit at PE, but absolutely clinical through the Ashes and at Centurion and Cape Town.

Same here. Brilliant.

 

[happy punter]

Australia are back as a force in world cricket baby!!!!!!!!

 

[aussierulesrules]

It was good to see the best team in world cricket during this series. Didn't mind seeing Sth Africa play either.

 

[D0CKERZ]

Nice big F... You by Rhino to someone in the crowd after he Morkeled Morne

[Quinz]

So, comfortable win in the end or what?

 

[carlton2dabone]

Thank god I got to see our guys celebrating on the field, instead of seeing their guys running on to the ground to hug the their batsmen.
It would hurt like a mother fu.cker seeing the latter.
