Australia v South Africa, 1st Test, Perth

Don't know what Aaron is talking about then.

Aren't I spewing. I was watching it yesterday when I got home and about 7:30 in the evening I decided to watch a movie saying "well at best, they're going to get one wicket and I don't mind missing out on that." Then Johnson rolls over 5 wickets in 21 balls and I only hear about it this morning on the radio. I was gutted. Gutted I tell you.

[stevo]

Was a great spell of bowling, the aussies were beginning to look flat and were probably wondering how they were going to get de Villiers or Kallis out, and what lead the South Africans would get, and then all of a sudden Mitch gets 5 wickets in 20 or so balls, unbelievable! The aussie were pumped though after the first couple fell, nearly every delivery there was an appeal.

I can't believe how often the momentum in this match has changed though, you would think that we look pretty good from here but the way this match seems to be going who knows!

[muzzington]

Interesting time now before lunch, since Katich is in good form and Hayden is struggling a little, but if he gets through this period he may post a good score.

[muzzington]

He won't feel good after that LB appeal, he was pretty much done.

[Des]

What sucks being out of form, is that everyone knows it, and they always bowl a bit quicker, or try a bit hard to get you. Hopefully Hayden will fight through this.

[Ondie J]

I'll be negative and say that he will go relatively cheaply. Just wish i was actually wathing it myself. I'm relying on Baggy Green at the moment

[muzzington]

One of the commentators made a good point saying that it probably doesn't help Hayden that Katich is in such great form and finding it easy.

[stevo]

Yeah, frustrating when the guy down the other end is finding the middle of the bat relatively easy and all you can manage is fresh air and edges, let's hope he can hang in there and get through it and manage a decent score.

[Ondie J]

19 balls and 0 runs. How relieved will he be when he finally gets a run? Doesn't matter if he's there for the entire innings with only 40 runs to his name. The time in the middle will benefit him.

And now I've just looked and see he's got some runs
