Once you get past Stokes you are basically all out.

Nah, Chris Woakes (although undercooked) is a cracking test match batsman, he can stick around and score runs

Hopefully Bairstows last test match for England. No need to play that shot. Aussie's don't even have to bowl well to get us out.

I will hold you to that.

What score do England need to avoid the follow on? Is that even still done these days.

Depressingly predictable.
I hold Bairstow responsible more than anyone else. Should never have insisted on being given the gloves. Decent lower order batsman and that's it. His ego is writing cheques his talent can't cash.

I’ve got form…….when Bournemouth where 0-2 at the Arse, I said no way they’ll get 3

Bairstow being picked remains a mystery. Not done anything remotely well.

12/1 on.

Fixed that for you Sam

You’ve hit the nail on the head, the Aussies are patient hitting a line and length knowing the England players will get themselves out.
