    Whats everyones thoughts on the follow-on?

    Id enforce it.

    Never know with the English weather. Were bowling well. Aussies havent for 17 years, so id love to see it. Lets keep the pressure on.

    This is really starting to piss me off! We clean up their top order time after time bowling line & length, and then when we start bowling short to their tail enders.

    Nice piece of fielding from the Durham lad Pratt to get rid of Ponting.

    It was indeed.

    Very dissapointed that Geraint Jones missed that stumping of Clarke. A 5th wicket would have just left me that little bit more relaxed overnight.

    Hope Simon Jones is ok to bowl tomorrow. Our attack doesnt look quite as good without him, esp on this pitch.
