Australian sports dominance

Hewitt has already broken Marat's serve in the first set of the final of the Australian Open tennis championship and Australia look like posting a respectable 250 (with Clarke presently on 63) in the One Day series. Are we ever going to lose anything ever again?

[EDIT: Final score for the Australian innings in the One Day cricket match was 265 so the target is 266 on a good batting wicket at the WACA. Nevertheless, I think Australia is going to crucify Pakistan. Similarly, Hewitt looks like winning in straight sets. It's just boring. The game against Roddick on Friday was far more entertaining.]

Pride goeth before a fall my dear :-)

I suspect the Windies will be a handful in the finals (assuming Pakistan do lose)

There's always the football, jo. Only a fool would bet against it.
