Forrest is sorta like Marsh all over again. Except the highs weren't as high and the lows not as low.

Going through the posts I missed

totally agree. scott coyte's return last season was basically our only feel good story for the season. i mean, i legitimately had faith in him in those shield matches at the end of last season. i was pretty surprised he didn't get offered a contract really.

I've got Mitch Marsh marked down as a future Tom Cooper/Luke Butterworth. Basically all his good batting performances have come against nsw/sydney sixers. ****er

Quite like the move to drop George. Dude doesn't take wickets outside of Hobart

Aside from that one time against NSW. ****er.

More my point being Hastings at 7 is a spot too high, to fit in all five bowlers (Hasto, McKay, Sids, Patto, Holland).
He def should have played in hindsight, but the seamers were all playing and Holland, on the back of actually performing decently those couple of times last season, has a secure spot for the next 4 seasons. so.

on a related note, lol @ lynn. what a fall from grace.
