    The Ashes are done, the worst Australian side since 2010 securing a dominant 4-1 series victory over the best English side since 2010 with a five wicket victory at the SCG. Ben Quagliata is joined for the final time this summer by Steve Smith (ESPN Australia) and Ryan O'Connell (The Roar) to reflect on a series defined by cartoonishly bad shots and worse fielding, waxing lyrical on the feats of Mitchell Starc and Travis Head, toasting the Test career of Usman Khawaja, the future of Australia's batting order and much more.
