As if!!! A victorian Batsman playing for Australia. It's against Hilditch's religion obviously!!!

 

Why did Haddin go for the Slog day 1 of a test Match, when a long careful innings is needed?

Todays players really don't understand Test cricket sadly. Too much 20/20 i fear.

Test players should not be allowed to play 20/20 in a perfect world.!!! Grrr

 

so.....who do you think will be in the World Cup side?

hope D Hussey and Hodge get selected as well as Binga and Warner will more then likely be in

I really hope they select a completely different batting line up to the test XI, Bowling is not so crucial.

This pitch today is a beauty, nothing wrong with it!!


hmm whats on 7two, dunno if i can watch this

"One foot in the Grave...." excellent British humour...i kid you not B)

Are You Being Served , Australia certainly are lol


Oh geez, Harris was terrible. Hilfenhaus was OK, but far too much rubbish overall. This Test is going to be a lot like Adelaide I think.

did Austin Powers help find his mojo?

apparently they found it in the nets last week!! How else could he be recalled??

South Africa all over the Indians early - 3/27.

My money's been on S.A. for a while, was "happy" to hear the Khan was out. Would prefer him in for the spectacle, however.


Interesting that he's been named 12th man.

Hardly surprising to see Beer not picked.

Doesnt matter whether Beer is 12th or 13th man!!!

Perhaps I should have elaborated. I said it was interesting, because he had been promised a start by the chairman of selectors. He'd also had all his family and cricket friends come over to WA to watch his debut call up.

Interesting !

Looks as though Punter had the last say.

India 9/136! Go South Africa. Steyn and Morkel showing Harris and Hilfenhaus how to use a new ball.

Finally, the criticism is being heaved upon our batsmen. Watson, Katich, Hussey and Haddin seem capable of playing against swing. Hughes, Ponting, Clarke, North and Smith don't. Funnily enough, the first four have all done OK so far this series, Hussey and Haddin especially, whilst the last five have hardly looked like scoring runs.

What does everyone think about this for an ideal Ashes side. No Hodge as he has retired from test cricket

2.D HUSSEY

What ... no Mitchell Johnson.... ? ;)

Let's re-visit this, shall we WYL.....

5/69 what a shambles...oh well at least heads will now roll from the top down....

Hilditch and co must register at centrelink monday morning!!!

Let's not throw the baby out with the bath water just yet WYL. Whilst Hussey is still digging in and England still have to face the music (I hope it's music to our ears.... :rolleyes: ). There is two innings to be played too. I'm obviously an optimist. Cricket has always been a funny game delivering peaks and troughs.

I admire your optimism HT, but with our bowling attack i cannot see it.

I wonder what Mitchell Johnson will dish up. Will he be switched on or not Bat and ball. Since the stoush with his mum he just hasn't been right.

Oh dear......

Forget his mum. That would be the last thing on he's mind playing for Australia with his career on the line. Or so you'd think, anyway.

He just needs to put his best foot forward. He has been wayward previously, but he can take wickets. All four bowlers are arguably in the same boat.

Hehehe You spoke to early HT. i threw out the bath water about 2 hours ago, .......

No I didn't WYL....

England 5/98 and MJ has 4 wickets ! Something about being optimistic...cricket being a funny game....cricket can deliver peaks and troughs.......

There. End of lesson.

Aah i see it has turned interesting-Been out all morning doing Christmas shopping. So Johnson has fired up i am guessing-Cool.

I still say the selectors need to go because of our rusty old Top order, but its good to see the Tail is having a red hot Crack.

Yes and it is a funny old game-and there will be more lessons learnt in the next 2 1/2 days.

Which is why i hate 20/20 so much. B)

Edit: Wow just saw a scorecard Johnson 4-7!! Wish i had seen that...Whatever Mitchell did in the Carpark last week must have worked!!!

Not suprised though after his batting yesterday...he looked hungry again..

Will the Poms Tail wag??

Edited by why you little

So should the selectors be kept for their selection of the lower order?

So who should the selectors have dropped and selected for the top order bearing in mind you have Captain and VC at number 3 and 4?

Very Sage.

Missed where its needed most.

Mitchell Johnson went back and worked on his bowling. He is hitting the crease taller and with more control. It's enabling him to swing and causing trouble for the batsmen.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
