Whoever is responsible for Rogers leaving WA should be sacked. Madness that we could have stuck with Ronchi at the top of the order at the expense of someone of Rogers' class.

You usually see some sort of partnership develop after a collapse of that proportion. Unless of course South Australia or Queensland are batting.

If you can ignore the rain, which is admittedly a difficult thing to do after sitting around for three hours just to watch the bloody game start, this was another tremendous advertisement for the Ford Ranga. Just about every game comes down to the last over; even that flop of a game between NSW and SA came down to the last over with SA pinching 11 off it to get up. Fantastic competition to watch imo, just such a shame that Fox Sports dogs it a little bit by refusing to show more than one live game of cricket even when there's nothing else on and they have three channels to dedicate.
Hugely impressed with Dropper's improvement this season too, obviously been working hard on his golf game while at the academy based on some of the shots he's played so far this year. Seems like a great bloke too, maybe another dark horse for Australian ODI honours at some stage in his career?
And FWIW, I didn't think Ronchi was too bad today; he got caught in two minds with the shot he got out to (a daft little push to cover for those who couldn't watch it), but I reckon that's largely the result of the attention focused on his current form. He was playing pretty well before that, looked aggressive but natural, and it was only when he tried to check that that he got himself out.

Invers called him the best young talent he's seen in ages I'm pretty sure. One of the best prospects to come out of Hale in years.
He shouldn't be opening any more. They have to realise it is a failed experiment. Yeah - he makes runs on the odd occasion; but for every ton there are five failures where he puts us in a world of trouble.

Should drop Ronchi for Micheal Johnson imo.
NSW line up looking better on paper,1 cchange a pace bowler for moises,so brakken and cmaeron in over he and ****ley,if they still out hazelwood and ****ley.
I think we just have to be realistic no instant miracles,to injuries, katich ,jaques and bolliger in india and nicho and mcagill retired.
Hard season for us but we have some nice names their just patience needed.
We have lost the whole shield final side justabout.

Not sure I totally disagree with this, but I'm not sure what it could possibly do for Ronchi's game. He definitely shouldn't be opening, but he'd be great in Dropper's spot at number six. Dropper can move up a spot, and that wouldn't be a wholly bad thing either because he's shown the ability to build an innings as well as hit the lusty blows. I would like to see Johnson getting a game at some stage though, he seems to be coming along pretty well. The problem would be when he and Matt Johnston are playing in the same team; Damien Fleming would have an absolute 'mare.

"Mitchell Johnson bowls and Trent Johnson hit the ball to point, where Matt Johnson fields. They go for a second and throw comes in to Micheal Johnson. Johnson takes off the bails and it likes Johnson safe."
Would be even funnier if there was Johnson playing for another state and not the former Irish captain and NSW quick.
