The kiwis will be spewing I reckon, took some jaggy catches, removed 4 of Australia's top 7 batters for less than 10 runs and still lost the game!....surely Bailey must be dropped for either Marsh or Stoinis?...at 33 years of age is he gonna be around for the WC in 4 years time?...reckon a younger batsman should be blooded with eye on the future.

Unless we just shared the same dream Freeze it did just happen for real
Watching the cricket from NZ vs AUS i get somewhat of the vibe you have to deal with over there mate ...sheesh they dont like us much!

mate they hate us with a passion.... Kiwi life is fully consumed with getting one over their bigger brother.....even better because it was NZ version of "Australia Day" today....Waitangi Day........makes it all interesting for Monday now.

That has just made my day mate pity it wasnt played at Hagley

will be at Hagley for the 2nd test.....my wife is treating me for my 49th birthday for day 1 of the test.....nice little ground hagley...definitely with a quaint English village green feel to it!

Hopefully celebrated with a Test & Series win as the present mate

mikeh just don't wear anything remotely Australian though mate....you may get lynched!!......

yeah BH would be nice mate.....I will do a banner saying hi BH so you can see me on the telly mate!!

Bailey I reckon copped the real clinker to be dismissed today.
Well batted and bowled to Mitch Marsh.Just might shut some of the Marsh haters.
Well Batted to Warner and Khawaja also Hastings.I reckon Hastings talked Marsh over the line today. A great partnership.
Well done Aussies,Monday could see the trophy in Aussie hands...... hopefully.

A/man a simple question: which states do the two respective players come from?

A/man your comments : "But we Aussie are the world leaders in sledging, bad sportman ship, and bad behaviour to the visiting sides.We are horrid nasty people." certainly are most apposite when describing the Australian cricket team.

anchorman wrote: Swan is it relevant!!! Just my opinion of the players.
But Bailey is a Tasmanian. Maxwell is Victorian.

It shouldn't be relevant but when you have the full weight of the Victorian or NSW media supporting one person and demanding another be dropped then it does lend itself to be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Who were the two players that were mooted as under pressure after the first match in the series and which state do they come from. We can go back to Ian Brayshaw and Garth McKenzie to show how long it has been going on for.

What support do you think Bailey will get from the NSW or Victorian media?

He should knuckle down for WA,so he doesn't get dropped for them.Only so long JL can carry his can.

How many tests would S Waugh have played in it was S Waugh (WA)?
