I've noticed you're a dirty bastard and I hate you, tbh.

Don't be an idiot, it doesn't reflect well on you at all.

I would strongly suggest you stop now, unless you want a warning to be handed out.

No; god forbid he make another double-hundred for his country... but still won't get picked.

My team;
Langer
Hayden
Ponting
Martyn
Hussey
Gilchrist
Watson
Lee
Warne
Johnson
McGrath

Johnson purely on the fact that left-arm bowlers provide something different, and also I think hes a much better bowler then Clark; but then again I'd say anyone is. Don't like a thing about that man.
This was my prediction for the realistic side. If I were a selector, I'd pick:

Langer
Hayden
Ponting
Martyn
Hodge
Hussey
Gilchrist
Lee
Warne
Bracken/Johnson (depending on pitch conditions)
McGrath

It was clearly a joke with Nath, though, I'd give Clapo more hell again tbh.

I wonder if I called you an idiot whether I'd last long, though. Rules should apply to all...

EDIT: Watson.

BARNES OUT
Tough guy stance? It's a pretty valid question. I'm obviously not going to tempt fate by labelling James an idiot, because I enjoy the interactive parts of this site like CWXI and am rather active in them, nor do I really believe he's much of an idiot.

Nath's a top bloke, was obviously having a joke with him. I just don't really like you, and am not required to.

Watson.

Seems the feeling is mutual

Any melbournites have a weather report for the MCG tomorow?? The Ponting/Warne battle should be a good'un, although, for the Ashes sake, i hope Punter comes out on Top. We all know Warne is capable of turning around a "form slump" quickly. I'm just hoping Ponting can do the same. Odds on that he will though, as he has stood up to be counted when needed most plenty of times before, and right now shouldn't be any different.

I reckon they`ll pick Johnson. Must be the only person who doesn`t think picking Symonds is a bad choice. Wouldn`t pick him in the First XI, but I`d have him up there as a reserve.
I agree with that - I think he'd play ahead of Clarke if Watson was out

How do the pitch conditions come into it when tossing up between those two? They would both appreciate swinging conditions, Johnson more so really because he is 10km/h quicker.

Ponting approaching his 50 at the G.

Seaming wicket would be more inclined to pick Bracken due to his ability to bowl cutters.

Doesn't matter anyway, somehow Tait is ahead of Bracken.

Didn`t take any offence to it at all if it makes any difference. Might have even smiled.

The form of Warney is worrying for me, and I seem to be the only one noticinggg.
