i think the point is that we won't play 5 bowlers (or a very small chance)
and i think rightly so with Symo as a bowling option and Haddin making his debut..

That's a pretty great side. Batting way down to 10 (even Clark hasn't been that bad with the willow in recent times) and 5 bowling options...works for me

If they decide to go for 5 bowlers then sure, Noffers should play. I just have a dispute with whether they should have 5 bowlers. If they're worried about Magill's form, they shouldn't pick him for crying out loud. With a batting all-rounder in the side (Symonds), I would pick my best four bowlers. If Magill isn't one of those, so be it; be very comfortable seeing Noffers in as a fourth quick with Symonds offering variety.

3 Tests just doesn't feel right. But then, no Brian Lara doesn't feel right either.
what do you guys think will be the slips position of the Aussie fielders? Had lots of trouble in the series v India... was pulling my hair out (*remembers Clarke dropping Sehwag on 0 and he ends up making 150 odd)
iidr, Symo also dropped atleast one in the slips...
1st - Hayden
2nd - Ponting
3rd - ???
gully - Hussey

Yeah, basically the battles, was always something to look forward to for the Windies test, with the great battles between bowlers and Lara. Just so used to 4 test in the Windies.Why doesnt it feel right?

Would think Symmo would slot into the cordon.

Katich if he plays.

I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Katich to take a 5fer and score 200 if he plays.

Katich out for 5 and to give away 200 if he plays.

Yeah you're probably (W)right. He's usually under the lid in close but I always thought he was wasted there. Jaques would get the nod for that job, m'thinks.

Not sure if there will be live coverage, though.
