Agreed about Johnson. If the English manage to get a quick wicket I reckon it could be wrapped up either before or shortly after lunch.
If these two bat the session, the back passages of England will be well and truly puckered!!
As an Aussie it pains me to say that the umpiring decisions haven't put us in this spot, rather appalling bowling on the first day and shocking shot selection in the first innings. How do 5 blokes go out playing the hook?? Put the flipping shot away!!! England showed you just need to bowl in half decent areas and you can pick wickets up. Mitchell Johnson, I hope you were watching so you can lift your game in the next test.Comment

That's the start we wanted
WICKET Haddin c Collingwood b Flintoff 80, Aus 313-6Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?Comment

I think you'll find his name is Haddin.
The same bloke who I saw one commentator rate as well below Prior because of his 'modest batting average'.
He's gone alright so far. Maybe he could instruct some of his top order mates on how to make a run.Comment
