I dont know why Hartley's never got recognition, thr thought with Paine is that he's a better keeper than Haddin and his batting is reasonable, yet Hartley's batting is the same level roughly and his keeping is much better. Would be a better option.

If we want a keeper batsmen again we go with Wade or maybe Nev (although he needs a few more f/c games I guess he's averaging 50 and is a damn good keeper). Yet Paine is the chosen one.

Completely agree.

You clown, the whole point of the news yarn was the number of players that have been developed in NSW. In other words, if you removed anyone produced in NSW from selection eligibility we would be a far weaker cricketing nation.

thats my point tho, bar taking away clarke and probably warner then the test team wouldnt be any worse if you took cowan, haddin, harris and lyon out. depth wise yes but the starting 11 would be at the same level

well actually siddle is the third best ranked quick in the world and if you dont think patto is already up there then u dont watch much cricket. hes got pace, swing, seam, agression, young got it all. like i already have said the only other quicks in the worldwide better than him are steyn and anderson. he faces more competition from inside australia then outside it.

so :lol: at you.

That's because the guys that replaced most of them, other than Haddin, would all be from NSW!!

i meant that if cowan got dropped id imagine they would look at moving watson back to opening instead of bringing back hughes who cant do anything but nick of to third slip lol

do you even know that a batsman can play a cut shot? or does that not happen when your standing up to the stumps in 7th grade.
