Find the term itself a bit meaningless. Tends to be wheeled out when the team is dudded instead of mere humble acknowledgement that the oppo were better.

Seems a weird gripe. The opposition are better because the team is in transition, and hence is playing n00bs. Acknowledges the opposition are better, mainly because their personnel are more experienced.

The revolving spinner door and Mick Clarke aside, the n00bs have been the ones performing....

They're not just better because of experience, the Saffer and English systems are simply producing better players right now.

There's no transition in Test cricket. One Day Internationals, maybe, because you are trying to sort your **** out for the next World Cup.

Has it been noted that Shane Warne is a Victorian yet?

No need. We just assume all time greats like Warnie are Victorian.

He sits alongside fellow greats Gary Ablett and Chris Judd.

Victorians - guns.
