I thought so at the time aswell but I've never seen a big fan of the follow-on. I thought England should have used the wicket while it was still good for batting and bat Australia out of the test. However there's also the psychological advantage of making Australia follow on for the first time in 17 years.
As it is now, Australia could get a decent lead and Warne will use the footmarks on day 5 to try and save the series.

Australia better pick up some more younger talents before WC'07.

Katich's lbw decision is highly controversial. Alim Daar makes a blunder here.

THAT is a first class shocker
I don't like England being helped along by dodgy umpiring, it gives you a dirty feeling.

The England top order have developed a very good stratedgy against Warne has been successful in the last few games. Warnes wickets have been mostly the tail. The top order have played him brilliantly.
England would get 150, it would be if the lead was 200+ I would get nervous.

Does Flintoff have tickets for a boxing match this time? The poor guy will have a very boring evening.

there's another one...
Aleem Dar called a 5-ball over. Steve Bucknor from square-leg came across and told the umpirte of the mistake and the players get back in position for Harmison to complete the over number 120.

129 to win then.
Erm....
I refuse to talk victory until it happens. Australia need early wickets, and I have a horrible vision of 20-2 at the front of my mind at the moment.

Two wickets and only one run conceded by Warne in his first two overs!
England are 37/2
They need 92 runs with 8 wickets, looks easy... unless Warne goes on like that!

England 37-2
Poms can afford to lose this one. It will be national disaster.
