I wish the Aussie selectors were as stupid as some of you guys (not to say that they aren't pretty stupid.) The more "exciting new" players you guys bring in to the side, the worse it's going to get. I'd be desperately clinging onto the past rather than trying to change if I were you.
the allrounder experiment is dumb tho, not helping at all.
Clarke back in or langer and jaques down the order, as long as there is no symonds!

did you think he'd play in this test after his effort in Perth?
Not really. Couldn't see the selectors recalling a player like Lehmann, Martyn or even Clarke.

It's so obvious that Symonds is NOT a test player. When are the selectors gonna wake up and realise that? God knows how many failures he's had in test cricket, hardly been impressive with the bowling. So why is he even in the team.

Get rid of him for a start, they shouldve punted him after the Adelaide test. Bring back Clarke, at least he wouldve made more runs and wickets than Symonds.

The irony of the Symonds saga is that it's Ponting who is sticking up for him and his place in the side... yet it's also Ponting that has chosen to barely give Symonds a bowl for the three or so tests he has been in the side recently. Great work there punter.

Andre Nel is superb. Just what cricket needs. Such a character. Looks like he gets under the Aussie players (and supporters) skins as well which is a bonus.

so far practically all his wickets have been sh*t batsmen or tailenders

a genius and a dud

Nel is a legend. Already one of my favourites. Not only is he a character, but unlike Warney he doesnt come across as an arrogant w!nker. Just someone who loves what he's doing.

Quality bowler.

he's a wanker alright and has been fined a few times for being one

Ponting and Gillie sh!t batsmen?

I thought Warne was the "great man"? Could walk on water?

And its your selectors who keep picking Symonds. He's the future of your top order. Hooray.

Looking to get a job as a selector in lawn bowls?

Warne is a bowler, knucklehead.

Gilchrist is playing so sh*t he couldn't even score against NZ.

Symonds is middle order and a dud

A bowler? No, he's the great man, can do anything. The way you spooge about him I expect a century everytime he comes to the crease.

Gilchrist couldn't score in a brothel, let alone against New Zealand.

Still, your team classes him as a batsman/wicket-keeper...

What's Ponting?

Shhhh... Thats a secret. Nel is another Murali to El D from the sounds of it. Could climb Mount Everest in a single bound and there'd be some technicality wrong with it.

Hodge is average at least 60 and Hussey about 80 at a wild guess

worse?
