Australian U-30 Team

[irfan]

Who would you pick for an Australian Test team if you're limited to players aged under 30 years.

Had a stab at this, and twas' harder than imagined.

1. P Jaques
2. T Birt
3. M North
4. M Clarke (c)
5. S Watson
6. D Thornely
7. L Ronchi (k)
8. C White
9. M Johnson
10. B Hilfenhaus
11. S Tait
12th man J Hopes

Most contentious spot was that of the spinner. With Bailey, Cullen, Doherty, Heal, Krejza etc. not having done enough or being terribly inconsistent, I decided to go with Cam White who would be just as (in)effective with the ball but adds a lot more on the batting forefront.

Or you could've gone with 4 seamers...

S Watson x 11.

1 P Jaques
2 S Watson
3 M Cosgrove
4 M Clarke
5 A Voges
6 C White
7 L Ronchi
8 M Johnson
9 S Magoffin
10 B Hilfenhaus
11 S Tait

G Bailey, L Pomersbach, D Cullen, A Heal, A McDonald, J Hopes, T Birt, D Bollinger, D Thornley would all be close to making the team.

Dire.. Bulldogs A are crap and cloning the same guy is ghey, imagine a team bonding session.

Who the team consists of now has no bearing on who was my favourite player throughout my lifetime.

Except he's the coach.

No your right though, I just don't like the Roosters but have nothing against Fittler, he was a legend.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

He was also handed the whole team bar Mason, really. Considering he took over after O'Meley was signed, and wouldn't have even gotten Mason if the Dogs didn't sack him. itstl.

But this is way OT, so I'll end it here.

 

[bond21]

what does Fittler have to do with the bulldogs? is he coaching them next season?

Are you insane in the membrane? Get Foster or Ambrose in there.

For a moment, I thought Ambrose was a beer brand. Good rap too in the first line btw.

Didn't pick Voges or Cosgrove as they haven't been consistent enough over a number of seasons.

Is there an U-30 world cup going on that we don't now about? lol

Was thinking exactly the same thing TBH.
