Deadset, its the middle of winter, and there's this gap as big as the one between Hodgo's teeth in the f.ucking schedule. What are we supposed to do - tune into the Cougs Goes Crabbing show ?

I can't tolerate those emo gaylords in the cricket forum.

We don't have the strike power to just tear through a batting lineup like we used to. We have no spinner to offer variety but you are right - the part timers like Katich & North are as good as our full timers. We lack a swing bowler to make the most of the English conditions. Siddle & Stuey Clark are seamers who are lucky to get an inch of movement. Johnson mostly is about angle and bounce. A shame Hilfenhaus hasn't come through, his outswinger showed a lot of promise.

Siddle & Stuey Clark are seamers who are lucky to get an inch of movement. Johnson mostly is about angle and bounce. A shame Hilfenhaus hasn't come through, his outswinger showed a lot of promise. Stuart Clarke was the new McGrath after pigeon retired. I didn't realise Clarke was 33 until I read my Sunday Times ashes liftout. Johnson has developed his inswinger which has made him very handy. He likes to hit the pitch hard but the slower English wickets make this less rewarding. 1st bowler picked these days. Can bat a bit too. I thought Lee was gone until the other day. He's hitting 150 again and can get reverse swing. A handy batsmen these days as well. Our top order is pretty brittle these days. I'd pick him. Hilfenhaus is an awesome swing bowler. I'd actually pick him. Horses for courses. English conditions will suit him. I reckon he'd be almost unplayable......like Alderman was in England. This is controversial but I'd give him a gig. Siddle for niggle. he's abrasive and charges in on a flat wicket. He gets wickets through sheer determination. A great man for a flat track when the opposition are on top. Clarke is in the McGrath mould. Hard to leave him out but I'd give the Hilf an opportunity I'm sure the selectors will pick him though. I reckon we have a great fast bowling attack. The difference is we don't have a decent spinner. We don't even have an average spinner
