Great effort by collingwood and the tail-enders!
We really need a re-think within this team for the 2nd test and hopefully the batsmen will turn up at lords along with a potent bowling attack.

Harmison in for me.

Ok he's not currently in the best of form but there's no doubt he can shake the Aussies up.

Yeah definately! He get's the crowd going too and we saw today with Monty what kind of effect the crowd can have on the players.

How awful is England's bowling????? Unbelievable.

Its not that Harmison is that good but sadly he's the best of the bunch we have about now to replace Broad or Panesar.

I don't really have that much confidence that Harmison will be the saviour some seem to think but at least he's genuinely quick..........tho he needs to bowl straighter to be effective!

I just feel for England to have any chance in the series the conditions need to suit the seamers as I dont feel we can bowl them out twice otherwise!

Most of the time watching Aus v Eng is very similar in cricket and league. Boys against men.
