Who's gonna win?

Yeah, there's a predictions thread, but this poll means business.

England, obv.

Been so long since one, I think that we're due a drawn series.

Draw.

Two very evenly matched teams. The fact that Australia has home advantage will have an effect but so will the few niggly injuries and tendency their collapse will even it out for me.

Faisal I take it you were born in 85?

You were two when England last won here. It won't happen.

Actually, it can't happen.

You can't expect England to have won since seeing as they haven't toured Australia since then.

Haha.. Why are you supporting England? You're a disgrace to the Scottish race mate.

No, he's actually just a disgrace, but he's supporting the good guys here so we let him off.

Australia are getting very under-rated very quickly. People are forgetting how good they are in home conditions. I'm pretty much neutral as to who I'm supporting these days but I'm definitely tipping Australia. It won't be a blowout of 2006/07 proportions but it will be pretty comfortable IMO.
