That was totally unacceptable from Archer, jogging through for a single when he would have been out by a meter had the fielder hit, I get he’s a laid back guy but come on, get your head in the game.

Archers attitude this match has been horrendous, im hoping he’s just mentally tired and it’s not a trait of his. As for the follow on, do the Aussies really want to be bowling for 2+ days? I think theyll go again put a few more on the board quick time and put England in sometime this evening.

Oops... 219 :)

20 is the follow-on, but who enforces the follow-on these days?

Yeah, I think especially as the Aussies have a 4 prong bowling attack it would make no sense to enforce the follow on. Give their bowlers a few hours break, send Warner and co out to smack the ball around one day style and send England in later on.
