So, covers off and umpires are out. not that Channel 9 are telling us that though.
Ah good stuff - was just looking at the radar and thinking that it was looking ok over Adelaide proper, although seems to be more on the way.

Hopefully the rain pisses off. We all want to see Pup get his ton then have a slap for 15 minutes then declare.
jesus hell channel 9...I love the 4 in the old folks home too, but really. Would it be so hard to show actual cricket in the rain delay? Things are tough when theres a better experience on the freaking crictime stream

Still have the news on
It was shown during the news.
Yep, I remember having a big argument with a Pommy guy at work over this. I said Collingwood pretty much cost them the match, he wasn't having a bar of it.
This guy had been pretty cocky the first few days of the match (and fair enough too the way it was going), then after they screwed it up on day 5 he was so annoyed he went for a run to work off the tension and got bowled over by a 6 foot kangaroo that suddenly leapt out of the bush near Joondalup. I laughed.

Here's hoping there is no interruptions for the rest of the day.
Surely not!
Yeah the Poms were broken after that match, was truly a beautiful thing.
Oh yes channel 9, please do, I live for the show biz news when I'm waiting for cricket.

Who the **** are half these people?
Yep, at the start of the day they still believed they could win the series. End of that day it was all over.

Play to resume in 12 minutes!
Resuming 4.00pm or 3.30pm acst
I never thought a team could look as mentally stuffed as that one did by the time they reached Sydney. Was just a procession at the SCG.
And then another England team stepped up to take the mantle for least interested in making a contest in the 4th innings.

Yup, I had a pretty similar argument. You could see it unfolding, but I suspect to this day he still reckons that it wasn't down to the slowness of the batting (his argument was something like "if he tries to score more quickly, he'll get out too" - forgetting that the slowness of the batting was causing the pressure to mount and those around Collingwood to struggle - the decimation was mightily amusing).
