goldenrod will have to get a replacement c**k soon - he's just about ripped his current one off with all the furious wanking he's doing.

Clarke has to bat four.

If he's the best bat in the side he has to be in the top four.

Yes, it has worked for him at five lately, but the problem the team has had is that he has been coming in early in digs because the top four have been failing.

If they really want Watson to be able to bowl more they should move him to six and shuffle Clarke and Hussey up the order. Clarke is clearly a four and Hussey is a classic number five. Watson can't bat long innings and he won't have to as much at six. He can play his natural game of getting 60 or 80 and hopefully not have to do it often, which will help his bowling.

I agree with all of this.

The right order is
Warner
Cowan
Hughes
Clarke
Hussey
Watson

But sadly we all know Watson will bat #4. It apparently took him a couple of days to "get his head around" going from #3 to #4, I'd hate to think how long it would take him to recover mentally from going all the way down to 6.

Problem with batting Watson at 6 he is very dodgy early against spin, he does average 43 as an opener. If he couldn't bowl he wouldn't be anywhere near the side, and he is not bowling enough to make up for his shit batting of late.

Watson is only pissed off that he is batting 4 because he'll have no reviews to waste. Not that Hughes will be using them though - its hard to overturn a decision when you're nicking it to slips.

I'll run down my street naked if Hughes is out caught behind. His technique has changed, what was once a weakness is not a weakness anymore.
