It seems the old spray and pray version of Meredith has returned
Still good to see Hunt's form continue with another half ton though

Turned out all he Sangha ever had to do was just move to a decent state
Seriously though, well played. It's only one innings, but still an encouraging start

I've heard he had a similar problem to mcgurk at the Vic's (**** circle of mates; bad attitude to training).

Fair point. In fairness the pitch did look green af, but really it didn't take long to see that it actually is a little on the dead side. Tassie also bowled a a bit too much rubbish early though
Yeah I saw that suggested elsewhere too. Seems at least plausible, but I don't know enough to comment either way

We didn't really select Chadd Sayers though. He had to dominate the Shield for years all to play the 1 post-sandpaper game

A Sangha ton and an Edwards 5er. What a day for Team Fetus
the thing with Sangha is that his conversion rate was always good. I think he would have had 3 tons before he failed to convert a 50. It's now 5 tons/9 50's, but some of the 50's he didn't convert would be in the 75 to 99 range too. It's a real strength, and enough of a lure to be interested imo. I don't think it would be that shocking to see him kill it in his late 20s
it's just, you know, the getting to 50 part that's a problem

Sangha actually made lots of runs in Sydney grade to keep getting recalled too.

Honestly even though it might not be a historically popular opinion here, I have always suspected there might be a genuinely good FC standard bat in there somewhere with Sangha. It may have been only sighted very sporadically with NSW (apart from one good season), and I'm not for a second arguing he wasn't given ample chance there, but he isn't the weapons grade spud some here have liked to claim

Uh beg to differ, he was selected by somebody.
But no you're right, he just showed up and put himself in the side.

He’s only just turned 25 so still a very young man.
It's one of the problems with "pathways" programs
Not only players can be selected too early but can also be discarded too early.
