Andrew Flintoff's batting
Does anyone currently expect Andrew Flintoff to get any runs? We get the impression that even Andrew Flintoff doesn't.
So far his scores this series have been 0, 16, 38 not out, 2, 13, 51 and 13. The 38 not out was a quick dash before the declaration and the 51 was when all hope had gone and England were about to lose the Ashes. He's basically achieved nothing.
This wouldn't be so bad if there were anyone else in the lower order who looked like making a run. As it is, England appear to be fielding six number 10 batsmen. (No-one's quite bad enough to be a number 11.)
We can't wait until something happens that'll make the site funny again. Imagine if Matthew Hayden retires. We'll be royally screwed then.

I think Freddie's ankle is giving him more trouble than he's letting on. I'd love to see him stay in long enough to get into full swing (so to speak), so far we've only gotten glimpses of what he's capable of. (Not sure if gotten's actually a word or not, but there it is).
And we - and by we I mean I - can only hope Hayden retires soon. Bring in Jacques I say.
