You people are seriously fmmmmed in the head.

Do you actually like cricket?

Or is this just some weird venue to vent regional prejudices?

lol Siddle takes a couple now people start turning on Johnson

Start? Johnson has been copping more than Siddle, and with good reason.

To his credit Siddle has bowled well. Doesn't mean he should have been selected in front of Doug - he shouldn't have. Doug has the superior record because he bowls well much more consistently than Siddle has. That said if Siddle takes his chance and keeps bowling well, then good luck to him.

Johnson on the other hand has been as erratic as he always has been.

No we're just not fans of nepotism, Siddle may have proved us wrong, but the arguement is still valid, Bollinger was dudded cos Ponting likes to play favourite's.

Yeah I don't understand why a lot of people in here actually bother watching Australia play cricket, should just stick to watching NSW by the sounds of it.

Agree we will never know how Doug would have done on this pitch, might have got a 6 fer too. But this stroke of luck means we have seen the real Siddle stand up. Johnson should be under serious pressure as hes done nothing this match, Hilfy has been alright but will need some more wickets soon.
