4th Test.

They were collectively looking likely to pull a "Henman" at one point -- letting lack of self-belief ruin their chances at the final stages of the match.

However, Hoggard looked so damn relaxed at the crease that I knew it wasn't going to happen and we were going to win it.

The Aussies were magnificent, though, and may well just slaughter us in the last one if they play with the same determination. Bit like the top footie clubs - they're quite easy to play until you piss them off by scoring, then suddenly they wake up and start kicking you all over the park.

don't even consider saying that England are good at curling, the Scots excel at it though.

Like we'd WANT to steal Curling glory. You're welcome to it. We'll stick with Rugby, Cricket and Football instead ta.

:grin:

More like when Johnson, Back, Hill (through injury), Leonard and also Catt & Grayson all left the international scene mate. Englands dominance was their absolute powerhouse forwards and when you lose half of that, you're in trouble.

Johnson was the inspiration behind England's years of dominance. Sure it helps having the greatest goal kicker of all time but Wales had Neil Jenkins throughout the 90's and still didn't win squat. Its the forwards that win you games by securing the ball.

We'll take the Rugby and Cricket and hopefully the Footie will follow suit (although unless we get a new manager I can't see it).

You can have your curling. All sorted then :D

Well, I believe the greatest golfer in the last 25 years from the UK is, erm, Nick Faldo. English I believe? Monty is like Henman, a choker and hasn't ever won a major (23rd in World Rankings). Sandy Lyle was the last Scot to do so. Right now the best ranked golfer from the UK is Luke Donald at 14 (English) and the next best at 22 is David Howell (English).

We both suck at Golf and who cares? It's as dull as dishwater to watch.

Paul Lawrie was the last Brit to win a major and he's Scottish.
Monty hasn't won a Major, but his brilliant record in the ryder cup suggests he's far from a choker.

:)

Golf > Cricket.
Curling > Cricket.
Grasshoppers > Crickets.

I quite like cricket.

Well, when I say quite like, I mean I don't mind it.

Well, when I say I don't mind it, I mean I'd rather hammer rusty nails through my ****** before swallowing a bucket of rabid ferrets and setting myself on fire than watch it.

Think there are quite a few people who'd prefer to see that happen to you than watch cricket.
