Forget rugby ending 0-0, I once played in a basketball game that ended up scoreless

That must be as close to impossible as you can get

It can't be far below a cricket limited over game being a 0-10 to 0-10 draw in terms of the most unlikely results ever.

Played in a house game at school where we bowled out the other lot for under 10. Four rings a bell.
I was pretty useless with the bat and couldn't bowl, but I was a great fielder in the slips

Was that the Tony Pulis v Alex McLeish All Star game?

Anyone care to make a prediction for tomorrows second test in Melbourne?  I'll go England by 6.

Craig Joubert is the referee, apparently Australia officials attended England's pre match briefing with Joubert which although is allowed very rarely actually happens, seems they have beef with how the game was officiated last week.

It's also Robshaw's 50th cap on Saturday.

I think Australia by a considerable amount. 15 or 20.

What didn't they like? Losing!

For the game I have england by about 14.  I think our front 5 are far too good for them andxthey won't cope with it.

I would be absolutely astonished if that happened.

I'm naturally nervous when it comes to England or Villa.
