Actually, that blues mob looks pretty handy on paper. If they have their fair share of form they'll be tough to beat. I desperately hope that at least some Aussie cricketers start to show that they're capable of handling international pressure, both physical and mental. The Shield competition should be a reasonable grounding.

Cheers

Might even get to the Lord's match since will be in the UK at the right time, even if I don't get there am going to bring back with me a
Barmy Army T shirt in preparation for next summer's return stouch, as someone said why in the name of God can't they get Warnie on the selection panel, know for an absolute certainty whilst Captain of Hampshire a few years ago their home ground in Southampton was completely moved and brand new buildings erected mainly on the customer appeal the Warnie bought to bear.

Not only was he pure sensation to watch, but a character to boot heaven knows we want another real character at the top, he may have been a bit of a handful at times but talk about a box office drawcard, they don't come much bigger excl.gif

PS: Warnies Mrs? might stir a few team wives up laugh.gif

Sorry, lost it for a moment.

What I meant to say was that the selectors have to take very many considerations into account ......


the age of the player
the average age of the team
the right balance of older and younger
who gets along with whom
what sort of weather they might have
the right balance of Corn Flakes eaters and Weet Bix eaters
who looks good in a baggy green
is there anybody in Shield cricket we haven't given a go yet
is there anybody not in Shield Cricket that we haven't given a go yet
has anybody phoned Mike Hussey lately?

Very complicated really.

Cheers
J

Totally agree with all that henrietta I was glad to see back of Watson as I thought he was over rated but putting Haddin in is beyond me Wade has done a fantastic job. M clarke did say he hoped his ankle will hold out for 5 matches so sounds to me its in doubt and the selectors are panicking. OMG just had another look at the squad and Watson is in I cannot believe that for the life of me sorry but its worse than Haddin.

We seem to be stocked with bowlers hope someone can bat as well as Clarkey in there.

I mean who are these selectors I thought we were going to have Steve Waugh and a couple of other good blokes Warnie would be good on selectors side of things too I will be almost too nervous to watch the matches.

Crazy talk. Selecting the best players is just ridiculous.
