Does any one else find that listening to the Aussie commentators, that they can be highly biased sometimes?

You mean all the time. Yeah they are, always have been. They were talking about how Mitchell Johnson spraying the ball everywhere is actually a good thing because the batsman doesn't know where it's going to land - like wtf :D

Oooooo I really want Aus to win, then when they tour here next year, we must give them a beating so bad they will remember it for the next 30 generations.

England will need a miracle to get something out of this match. Aus lead by 494.

Man, the Pommies are being raped so hard :D I like it :twisted: It would be great if Broad got injured very badly in this match (SRS).

What a comeback, Mitch (Bows down)

Australia 295 & 401/7d

England 136 & 179/10 (81.1 ov)

Australia won by 381 runs

Finally!

The Quote of the Day:

Aussie Capt. M. Clarke to JM Clouderson - "Get ready for a fuc.king broken arm."

Sadly, it didn't happen as Clouderson got out just now :(

EDIT:

5.45pm: Australia have wrapped up a crushing defeat, despite the rain, despite their shaky start on Thursday, despite a run of seven defeats in nine Tests. This has been a hugely impressive display and looks to have posted a significant marker for the series; England have been battered and bruised in body and mind, suffering the sixth-heaviest defeat, in terms of runs, in their history.

Hmm, bit too aggro.

I still think the aussies are far more arrogant.

Sure, Broad was unsportsmanlike, it's not like the aussies haven't exhibited similar behavior over the years.

The enemy of my enemy is not my friend.

Hope England heap pain on the aussies in the next game to balance things out.

I disagree, the Aussies were arrogant because they were that damn good. The Pommies on the other hand get excited by a few victories. They also utter stupid **** like Anderson is better than Steyn.
