Why does everyone hate Shane Watson?

Obviously nobody is going to love him as much as he loves himself, but why all the ill-feeling?

i'm sure if i can track down that north-clarke captain thread I'll see speculation watson was in clarke's crew...

talk that was warner was in team watson is fan speculation (by a minority of fans at that) that only just started. i think the theory behind warner being in team watson was 'cause watson got punished for doing something wrong? and therefore must hate clarke?

I hate Shane Watson because he is given leverage over other players for no good reason, I also hate the way he is clearly enormously talented but has failed to fix some technical flaws that have been limiting him for years now.

i think davey warner's bro's tweets would suggest he is not part of the watson faction.

Best Australian batsman, should be captain. Drop Clarke.
#shanewatsonthoughts.

Seriously tho the reason he doesn't have support for this is he just hasn't been putting up the numbers. Clarke has/d been.

Edit2: I think one of them has to go and have a clean out and as much I'm possibly the biggest watto fan on this forum I don't think you can justify keeping team watto.

I can see the attraction as a cricket player, but he really doesn't have too many redeeming features as a human being, does he?

He's selfish, he's a sook, he's patently not the deepest thinker, he's a tattle tale and he's afraid of the boogie man.

Oh Watto :wub:

I reckon Watto should retire from tests and just play ODI and T20. I love watching him in those but I can take or leave the test matches.

3 reasons I hate him

- He is a massive ****.

- He is selected to bat in the top 6 (usually opener) for Australia. But his batting average is worse than Scott Styris and Ravi Shastri. He is a crap batsman.

- He is a massive ****.
