Just found out this test series is under the "appeal rule" bout time England accepted it, no more dodgy Rudi Koertzen decisions.
There is a new appeal system for disputed dismissals starting in the the first Test. Here is a synopsis of how it will work:
* A trial system of referring disputed dismissals is being used in the series, the first time England have taken part.
* The trial method, approved by the ICC, has previously allowed teams to make three unsuccessful referrals per innings but that number has been reduced to two to save time and discourage the art of trying it on.
* Either side can ask for the television umpire to review a decision. The fielding captain might think an appeal was wrongly rejected, a batsman that he has been unfairly given out.

bring this in for the ashes
winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11
