7 fer for George so far, what a gun bowler. good to see him bowl on a decent pitch unlike the adelaide oval of recent times.

Looking forward to him bowling at the Gabba and Waca pitches also.

Now with his 8th, if he gets the last one he will have 9!

Edit: Duval kills it but 8 wickets is still dam good figures.

Thought Tait did one as well but that was OD! He has a 7 fer though.
Smith out :( He started the season so well but his spot could be up for grabs now.

George 8 fer, heaps gun knew he would rip it up soon.

Don't think Smith will be dropped, hes a good batsmen and dosen't deserved to be dropped, he copped a good ball today. Unless they make Klinger open and bring Cooper back in.

What's happened to the like of Plant, Oswald-Jacobs and that who got games when SA were under their "rebuilding" stage? They were pretty young at the time.

Best figures for an SA bowler for a while. Think Gillespie took 8-fer a few years ago?

Top effort to nail Tas for sub-300 considering where they were.

EDIT: Phew, Gillespie's 8/50 was 8 years ago;

Geez, Hags was still in the team.... and SA still managed to contrive to lose the game. haha
Sub 400 maybe?

Either that, or by "Tas" you mean "Cowan" :p

Not been sighted. It's a weird season in Adelaide grade right now. All the guys doing well aren't in the Redbacks squad and the guys who are in the squad but not the XI don't get much game club time and when they do, haven't dominated. The local blokes in the squad have basically been picked on their under-age history. In some ways it's fair enough because the under-age teams have been excellent the last few years but the down side grade results mean nothing in terms of state selection any more. Tom Plant has been doing more with the ball this year (and that ain't saying much)! Jas Borgas has got a few scores but nothing which would warrant a state spot.

Anyone heard of Carl Teitjens? Exactly. But he's top of the wicket list this year with 3 5-fers before Christmas. In years gone by, he'd be getting some press at least. With the bat, of the guys actually in with a chance of playing for the Redbacks (i.e. young blokes, not just grade stalwarts), Andy Delmont has been doing quite well for Uni. Trent Kelly has a few poles this year and Wise too but, again, hasn't had a look-in.

Nice to see some familiar names in grade cricket again too (Nobes, Lehmann, Bishop). They're not at Futures level yet but it's probably a matter of time considereding who their Dads/relatives are. :D

Plant started in the team last season i believe but didn't put up any performances, and was dropped for cooper/plant after about the halfway mark, when dan harris was coming back from injury.
OJ hasn't made any runs in grade cricket for years, had a few nightmare seasons and wouldn't really be getting a look in at the moment, has had a decent start to this season though.

Very impressive performance by WA against a solid NSW side.

Almost played this game to perfection. Shaun Marsh playing the perfect openers role, holding up one end for almost the entire innings. Allowing all other batsman (Robinson, Mitch Marsh, Vogues) to play the more aggressive innings. Then to back it up with the perfect first 20 over display by the paceman essentially killing the game.

Shame that level of consistency across both disciplines’ has been non-existent for WA this season.
