Thornely is a nuffy, he is another case of his talents being blown-up by the N.S.W. media.Linda said:

Don't agree?
He is a pathetic batsman, and cannot bowl to save his life.

Well...N.S.W. are going to need to take their catches if they want to be competitive this season.Mr Casson said:Not a bad fielder though.

Welcome back Mav. Missed ya' around here.
I think the main reason he hasn't been discussed is because he is 27, and everyone around here knows if you're not under the age of 25 you have no realistic chance of making an Australian team.

I dont agree, I reckon players especially batsmen over the age of 25 have as much chance as those under, even though many believe that youth now is the way to go after the Clarkes sucess. But look at the trend of Lehman Hayden, even Katich to an extent all getting picked in at the age of 29, 30 and blossoming as players in the maturity.
But yeah reading around a bit, Thornely, bit of a Shane Lee in the latter part of his career, could have done it, but didn`t. Jaques, I wouldn`t go calling him quality. But yeah, go the Bulls, especially Lee Carsledine, watch him people.

First of all it is not my view. I reckon it is much more valuable to a side to have a player in his late 20s make the national side, they have the experience. What is better 6 or 7 solid years from an older cricket or have a young guy come in and perform well, but then dip due to lack of experience and get bundled around the domestic circuit and probably forgotten.
Re: Lee Carsledine - I wouldn't be holding any hopes for him playing much this season, he has had a terrible run with injuries and will find it hard to get in ahead of Watson & Hopes. Perhaps he might be a chance in the Pura Cup.
