5-0 whitewash.

No excuses. England were out-bowled, out-batted, out-fielded, out-brained, out-run, out-smarted by the GCO (Genetically Criminalised Ockers) XI. I didn't really expect Engalnd to win The Ashes, but neither did I expect a 5-0, rub your nose in the kangaroo dung massacre it turned out to be. Well done you thieving buggers Australians. If I could be there now, I'd drink a glass of Boag's or Cooper's with you, not to celebrate or commisurate but to enjoy a nice beer in the sunshine on a hot day which'll make a welcome change to the endless monsoon we've been having here in Blighty. :)
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Most unexpected, as a neutral, I expected England to win, maybe 2-1 or 3-1. Australia didn't strike me as a particular strong unit, getting thrashed in India 4-0 just months before and all that - I guess England were just pathetic X| Do you know home teams lost just 2 tests in all of 2013? (Yes, test matches, not series.)

Indeed. It looks like there is this strange phenomenon going around. Last year, I guess things were only slightly better (though I don't have any statistics behind this statement). Away teams don't perform well.

England imploded. They look unbeatable a few months ago. As an example, Matt Prior did tremendously well in June. In a few months, he had to be dropped! Haddin did badly in England. Few months later, he was a hero.

Woo hoo! No doubt a great result and probably Michael Clarke's salvation but it was a particularly boring series. Please don't sent the girl's team next time.

To be honest, the girl's XI would have played better than the "girls" that did go.
