Bloody Brill................Translate please....... and WTF are the ashes? we are yanks ya know.

"bloody brill" - absolutely brilliant, totally awesome.

The Ashes are a series of cricket matches played every other year between Australia and England. It's the most prestigious competition in the cricket season and is usually won by the Aussies...

Go England!

Aussies are decendants from a long ago penial colony, you don't have a chance. There people England cast off to isolation. Their going to kick your arse.

**edgray** · 07-29-2009, 09:25 AM

hahaha! they normally do, well, in recent history anyhow...

They're one of our main sporting rivals. They pretty much kick our butts at everything, seeing as per-capita they're the best sporting nation on the planet. But that just makes the occassional victory all the more sweet - they are ungracious winners and even worse losers. I was so happy when the UK beat them in the medals table at the last Olympics (you should've read what their press was saying) and of course there was the Rugby World Cup in Sydney, 2003... the sweetest sporting moment in history for me

Like I said though, the odds are normally stacked well against us when it comes to beating them...

Well I wish you all the best of luck, Kick them kangeroo hoping aboriganee arses!

yes england sure can win this years Ashes, now they have already 1 up in the series and 3rd test is starting today and with the form flintoff is in england can win the Ashes even 2-0 or 3-0. no doubt KP would be missed by england but bell is also a very good player and he would wanted to grab this opportunity with both hands.
