A bold prediction
On the eve of the 5th Test the England team suffer mass casualties from a vicious strain of flu and have to summon out of the crowd, to make his Test and FC debut, an aging Yorkshire-American fast bowler with bad knees and a bit of a tummy who is on vacation from his job in the Philippines after he had been brought to their attention in the practice nets the day before the game.
Long shot? Maybe. About the same as England winning 5-0

0-0
Terrorist atrocity; series cancelled.
Ashes retained.
Hooray!
Ok failing that,
Winner: draw
Result: 2-2
MOTS: Mitchy Boy, Penisen
Highest wicket takers: Mitchy Boy, Broad
Highest run scorers: Clarke, Penisen
High point: Penisen 300 at Adelaide
Low point: England crumbling to sub-100 scores at Perth and Sydney
Unusual happenings:
(1) Mike Hussey goes into rehab following a pair at Brisbane and consequential descent into a hell of drink, drugs and random violence
(2) English spectators interrupt and sabotage the singing of the Australian "team song" at Perth. Mike Hussey collapses in tears on learning the news from his clinic bed

Objectively -
Aus to win 2-1 or 3-2.
Man of the series - Watson maybe
Swann to win one match for us but mostly toil for 10ish wickets at 35 +.
Broad to offer moments with bat and ball but not do much.
Strauss a solid 350 - 450 runs
KP 400 + runs (I hope)
General standard to be lower than previous 3 ashes
.......but drama to be high at times.
Aus to win in Brisbane and Melbourne. Perhaps we win Perth owed to a good day for the seamers.

Australia 2-0
MOTS - Clarke/Hussey
Most wickets - Dougie
Biggest disappointment - Steve Smith with the ball
Strauss to lead the scoring sheet for England
Swann to be OK not too good not too bad.
Long time since a cricket controversy. So a huge ball tampering controversy with Broad at the middle.
