Actually, I find youtube comments have the opposing effect for me. Can't help but laugh at the idiots on there.

here*??
Notched his maiden OD ton this season. Prior to this season, he's been the sort of batsmen who makes an awesome looking 30-40, then gets out. Has been having a good season though, and converted a few more of those starts in both forms of the game.
Ahh, OK then. Sounds like the type of player that comes out of the blue to haunt NZ. I hope not.
Voges, haven't heard his name mentioned since last time he played us, assumed he was off the radar.

Was a dismal failure for Australia A in the off-season and has averaged a whopping 26 in fc cricket this seasonhere*

His selection is a total joke

Ferguson has made 302 @ 43.14 in FR cup with 2-50's and 1-100
and 576 @ 48 in the Shield including his 100 today.
A good season but should have been required to back it up next year before getting a call up given the nature of SA batsmen to play well enough to keep a contract every second year.

He is almost guaranteed to be filling the roe of late order slogger and part-time bowler
Gee, that's exactly what we need - another bits and pieces players
It's as if the Oz selectors have stolen the English ODI strategy book
NEWS FLASH MORONS, ENGLAND ARE GENERALLY **** IN ODIS

I doubt it, Hopes to open imo, but yeah with Marsh and Ponting both gone the top-order looks very brittle, and Clarke ain't in the best of form either.
Ferguson no doubt is a talented batsman and this he is starting to get some consistency going but its shocking that he has been picked in the Australian squad, although i am sure he won't be picked in the XI, but his selection is a stinging blow to international aspirations of likes of North, Klinger and Hodge (eventhough he is injured, i still doubt he would have been picked, even if he was fit).
Voges' selection might not be as poor as Ferguson's but its still pretty dire, i guess this group of selectors have a thing for picking younger blokes, but surely you can't ignore better performing players just because of their age.
These two selections also suggest that the current selectors are only going by the very recent performances, because both Voges and Ferguson played good knocks in their recent SS games, but their overall record this season doesn't match up to the likes of North, Klinger and Hodge.

I watched the video thoroughly.And you are misunderstanding as well. No conspiracy, just that isn't being entirely truthful about the 100% thing.
There is nothing wrong with looking at reactions, I feel. Haddin showed doubt, heck, look at this video at about 17-18secs you can see Clarke actually asking Haddin for confirmation, so even he had doubt.
Yet you say that at real time there was no doubt?
Clarke is playing at real time.
Haddin is playing at real time.
Broom is playing at real time.
Only Haddin was 100% sure.
Are you sure that Clarke is not telling the batsman that "you're out"? It's very hard to tell with the camera angles in play who he was talking to. All the fielders certainly went up quickly including Clarke. Also because of the way that Haddin's hands moved it really looked bowled in real time.

Has generally had to come in after Ronchi and Pomersbach combined for a total of 2, though.

Well maybe they think it's time to throw Ferguson in the deep end and see if he can swim. Something suggests the selectors have big hopes for Hughes and thus will not mess around with his selection like they have been with other players recently. If he was selected and plays well he would be on the boat for RSA and the Ashes which is not the right thing to do.
Conversely if Ferguson or Voges fail, it's not such an issue, they should have the maturity to cope with the pressure.
