Mathew Wade - Australias tough little nugget

[hineyrulz]

Bring Back Timmy Zoehrer, he can bowl some handy Leggies as well.

I know it sounds ridiculous but do you think the commentators are afraid to criticise Scissorhands because they don't want to feel the wrath of Bum Chum Warnie?

They're all so meek that it seriously wouldn't surprise me. Seriously Warne and Chappelli are the only strong personalities in that box.

The rest strike me as followers and yes men.

Maybe we're all wrong and Wade's actually a decent keeper - AG clearly believes he's more useful than Watling, who I think's ok

Where did I say that?

Phil Emery > Matt Wade

David Boon>>>>>>>>>> Matthew Wade.

Paul Hauff has safer hands than Wade.

The Boston Strangler has safer hands than Wade.

*blatantly stole that joke

Where did I say that?

You implied it

We can't all have keepers as wonderful as BJ Watling.

 

[Timbo]

Watling is a top-shelf test keeper. I'd take him in a heartbeat.

 

[Bazal]

You implied it

He implied no such thing. Implying that he doesn't rate Watling doesn't automatically equate to implying he's worse than Wade. He might think they're both shit...

I am starting to become very fond of Wade.

Playing Real Cricket on the iPad or iPhone, generally he's coming in at 6/f**k all. And saving my Innings more often than not, usually with the Toyman as his partner too, funnily enough.

Can't miss stumpings or drop catches in the game, so he's alright in my books.

Then he'd be half right, which is par for him

[Barkley]

The Victorians have somehow convinced Wade to move to the Apple Isle.

Poor Tassy

[Bazal]

Tim Paine can't get a run in the Shield side, and Wade is a much worse player than him

 

[Twizzle]

Not cold enough in Victoria ?

At least the Toyman can move up 1 spot in the batting order now.

 

[hineyrulz]

So Wade helped stop Maxwell's move but is then pissing off himself??? What a merkin, Maxwell was 100% correct about this little plank.

 

[JJ]

Oh yeah, Maxwell is looking like a genius and good bloke...

Given Lehmann's behaviour recently via his tweets, and Wade you have to have some concerns about the culture - India is going to be enthralling, people seem to have forgotten the RSA series quickly, kind of weird - we towelled Pakistan at home too, and obviously you smashed us in an ODI series - but aside from Hazelwood, Starc and Smith who else would you put money on to do well in India... might not be homework set, but you wonder if some cracks will appear under that pressure (just as they often do to teams touring Australia)
