Didn't he get a ton on FC debut or am I thinking of Simpson? I know Nye got one as well.Love that Phillipson got runs, really wish he could push his way into the First Class side. Quality bat, just lacks consistency.
110 on debut against Tasmania. Simpson has two first class hundreds this season, but didn't get one on debut. Nye 102 on debut against N.S.W.Didn't he get a ton on FC debut or am I thinking of Simpson? I know Nye got one as well.
Worst post ever.You could say Queensland have no more Hope for this game.
Yeah it should have been "So one would say that Queenslands Hopes are gone".Worst post ever.

The problem, as I see it, is that they aren't any better than our mainline players who aren't doing a great job at the moment (batsmen anyway).Yes I would rather pick Phillipson over Doran.
How frustrating is Martin Love btw in Pura Cup matches - He's one of the worst batsmen at starting. So many edges, lbw's at the start of a Love innings.
We actually have good depth with Nye, Philipson, Moller, Kruger, Carseldine all capable of stepping up.
I'm a fan of Broad, but I don't think he's much at all ahead of Moller.The problem, as I see it, is that they aren't any better than our mainline players who aren't doing a great job at the moment (batsmen anyway).
Not sure if Maher is going to be fit for this weekend, so we could see Watson make a return to the side, and he will probably open, meaning a side of; Broad, Watson, Love, Perren, Hopes, Simpson (c), Bichel, Noffke, Hartley, Sullivan and Kasprowicz/Swann could be likely.I'm a fan of Broad, but I don't think he's much at all ahead of Moller.
Also since Doran doesn't bowl Simpson shouldn't be in the top 6 IMO and we could add another batsmen.
This would then mean
7 Simpson 8 Noffke 9 Bichel 10 Hartley
Which is awesome especially with Hopes and Watson and whoever you want at 11, hopefully Kaspa..
Is it confirmed he'll be playing? Looking at the squad he could quite likely be 12th manHughes is making his debut against Tassie!!!
Yeah, he's only been named in the squad.Is it confirmed he'll be playing? Looking at the squad he could quite likely be 12th man
