as far as i heard, if say johnson loses his cricket australia contract (purely for explanation purposes) he becomes a queensland player again and would have to get a transfer, not that he's played for WA anyway, but i'd say watson shouldn't have too many problems moving

on cossie, supreme talent, many fat batsmen have made it, and one fat legspinner, and a fat fast bowler, big deal

NSW offically approach him every season about the move tbh. This is just the first time he said he will consider it.

Are they still pushing for separation from Australia in order to field their own international cricket team??

QLD could really use a reliable batsman for next season. I'm not sure who though. Maybe pick up Paine? Obviously he wouldn't keep but if he wanted to focus on his batting it'd be a good move. Otherwise Blizzard might be a value pick.

Would be a real boon to pick up Jaques. QLD could really use someone of his calibre, and given he doesn't have too much of a chance of playing for Australia in the near future (barring injury) he would be there for most games.

Queensland, since 1990 don't have a huge reputation for buying players. I'm sure they'll discover someone from grade cricket to fill the voids left. Symonds should be a more fulltime option, so that should help.

The article I was reading about Watto said there was rumour that Symonds would retire. Is that just press-stirring?

I hope Reardon gets some FC chances next season.

Yeah, looking at Queensland's team for the Shield final, I'm assuming they'll just replace Love and Watson with Kruger and Reardon. That'd leave this:

1. Broad
2. Kruger
3. Carseldine
4. Reardon
5. Symonds
6. Hopes
7. Hartley
8. Noffke
9. Simpson
10. Harris
11. Swan

They'll lose Symonds and Hopes at various parts of the season. While they can bring Cutting/Laughlin/Sullivan in for Hopes and push everyone up one without really looking particularly unbalanced, I'm not sure what they'll do if Symonds gets picked in ODIs. Moller and Perren didn't set the world alight last season. Batticciotto maybe? Dunno.

Can sympathise with Watto - he's a very touchy, feely type guy.

So, it's probably the best thing for him.

Has anyone ever seen Shane Watson's girl? I would follow her to play domestic cricket in Pakistan if it meant being with her.
