    Its quite a pivotal moment to realise that it will be extremely likely that most of the AUS players will not be playing in a Ashes Test series again...
    Smith...36
    Khawaja ...38
    Starc...35
    Boland...36
    Lyon.....37
    Hazlewood....34
    Carey.....34

    I just really hope it turns out to be an Ashes too far for a few of them. If a couple of them have stinkers it really sets us up well. I'd love it of we did to them what they did in 2013 and just end an era for them.

    I'm convinced Khawaja is done and if they'd managed to replace Warner he wouldn't be playing. Ideally Lyon and one of the remaining quicks wont have it left in them, the rest below par.

    Anyone else planning to be doing the nightshift at least for the first 2 Tests?
    Much more important question. Anyone actually travelling in person to Australia to watch?

    Papers reckon there will be 40,000 travelling. Probably not all for the whole series but still pretty insane numbers!

    A 2006/07 scenario I fear, where they have a final successful hoorah.

    I strongly fancy us in the next home Ashes though.

    My prediction is an Australia win 4-1. I really can’t see how we are going to win more than one Test.

    Can’t be dealing with the negative predictions 
    they are ageing and yes at home but I believe with the correct attitude and belief they are for the taking.
    Root to wipe their smiles off 
    We are due a win so I’m going 1-3
