The guy averages 28 in FC cricket, and is just coming back from major back trouble. I think you need to be a little more sparing than that.

How good was Micky Lewis' catch?? Haha!!

I've never heard a negative word about Crosthwaite from Ian Healy. He seems to talk Crosthwaite up a lot in comparison to the other keepers.

I don't recall Ian Healy ever saying a negative thing about any keepers...

Not only back trouble... knee trouble, shoulder trouble, etc etc.

another good score for Martyn, keep it up. Now he has to make a big score in the Pura cup now...

Hahaha I cant believe Brad Williams played for Aus.... what a joke!
LOL! He is a joke, I can't believe it either.

I'm disappointed I missed the chance to see him getting carted all around the ground because I had to play cricket today. Would have been fun to watch.

WA with Langer (granted he got injured), Gilchrist, Martyn and Hussey yet losing would be disappointing.

TBH, I didn't think Brad Williams was actually that bad......hasn't he been injured of late too?

Be fair to the bloke, he did help us win the MCG test against the Indians! :happy:

Yeah, he played really well against Zimbabwe....:p

And Squid, as far as I know he was injured a bit last season.... but thats no excuse for bowling the way he did yesterday. He wasnt alone of course, Wates apparently thought bowling half volleys on leg stump to Moss was a good idea to decelerate Victorias scoring...

he took a 5 for vs NZ in an ODI in Pune during the TVS Cup in India as well. But he was very impressive in 2 consecutive ODI series (TVS CUP & VB Series) before he didn't play much in SRI & got injured in zimbabwe & didn't get another chance to play for australia...

Does that include his grudge against adam Gullcrust which has slowly faded away.
Last time i checked Healy was the first one to congrat Gilly on his first hundred in ODIs....

no he was never good enough to play ODI's. i rate picking him almost as bad a screwup as dropping Marto.

Yes come on the NSW Blues!!! Going very well in both forms this year.
Yeah..right. After 3 games. And with their full bowling attack.

Let's see how they go without McGrath, Lee and MacGill.
