Tom Moffatt with more Futures runs today, think Smith can say bye bye to his Shield spot.

I care. :p

Do you know anything about Moffatt? I saw he'd make a lot of grade runs this season last time I checked to look at Cullen's stats.

Wow, that's amazing. He's a different unit, lives up to most Frankston stereotypes. Bowls at decentish pace, tends to bowl short of a length, push you back all the time, and then go for the yorker.
Ended up taking 4/78 in the second innings. Did Australian club cricket proud, he did. How far down the pecking order at Victoria would you actually put him?

With Bollinger back the NSW selectors get a headache as to who to leave out. I think i saw Cameron was tipped to miss out in the paper this morning, very harsh, especially as he is a better bowler then Siddle.
Dougeh's leaving after day 2 anyway - well he was who knows now - so Cameron will still get a game

In Four Day cricket, which he's probably best suited to:

Siddle
Wright
Hastings
Pattinson D
Pattinson J
Cleary
Sheridan
--------------
Steve Gilmour
Allan Wise
Nick Austin
Jayde Herrick

Austin would be just ahead of him because he's had a super start to the year, has 19 wickets already in a very rain interrupted season. There are probably another half a dozen blokes you could throw up in Herrick's place, a few young guys who have been getting Futures League games (Scott Boland, Steve Reid, Louis Cameron) and some more experienced guys (Marc Carson, Daniel Mueller) alongside.

EDIT: For one day cricket, the line-up is pretty similar, but you also have Harwood and Nannes to get in front of.

Geez we're getting desperate if Allan Wise is anywhere close to selection.
The guy still has 100 FC wickets at less than 30, all in the Sheffield Shield. He's been superseded by Hastings, they play very similar roles; tall medium pace bowlers who hit the deck hard and build pressure, and it's a role that's been important for Victoria since Hookes came in.

Pretty sure that if SA had've been picking their "best" team all the time then Wise would've played many more games for them, but they needed to get the miles into Haberfield, George, and others to fast-track them.

I can't believe Travis Birt was overlooked for Jonathan Wells for Tasmania today. Move Doolan to open with Cowan, put Cosgrove at 3 and put Birt at 5 would have been better. Wells averages 18 for an opener :laugh:

What those figures don't tell you is how absolutely belted he got in the first innings. :p Arguably Otago's best batsman.

I already mentioned that in my previous post. He came back well in the first innings too though after his first spell. Nerves, IMO. :p

Yeah Tasmania have this thing with not playing Birt in the Shield. Now he's obviously a better one day player than he is a four day player but he's still a very talented batsman and it's not like his Shield record is crap by any means.

Thanks for that. About what I would've guessed.
