Australian Domestic Off-Season Thread

[mefly]

Would Hogg play if he was available anyway? WA seemed to not pick him all that much last season even though he was playing for Australia. Although I guess that will change without Casson this season.

hopefully he plays in one dayers, he is so exciting bowling the late overs in ODs .

 

[AussieDominance]

yeh he is!

Australias' rep players will be available for the domestic one day final in february.

I don't know why you'd say that. If the cricketing authorities keep doing things like this then surely twenty20 won't be taken seriously.

Where's McNamara! Outrage if he's not in the side.

Does this really need a thread of its own?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Don't see what the problem is really. It's a topic for discussion, and there's no point starting a season 2007/08 thread this early.

 

[Perm]

Well it seems quite pointless to me, obviously there will be limited discussion about the two players and their shift but I really can't see the point, surely there would have been a better way to go about it. Digging last season's thread or even an Australian Domestic Cricket thread, if one exists.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yeah, it's been done before and we'll do it again.

Pretty sure it's Tim MacDonald moving, not Tim Ferguson. Unless "Don't Forget Your Toothbrush" has made an almighty return.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Thread merged with last season's one.

 

[pasag]

Will WA have any spin options this year?

 

[howardj]

Heal? And there's always Hoggy.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Anyways, supposedly Wade has been brought over to put some real heat on Crosthwaite. Peter Nevill played 2nd XI all year (although if Crosthwaite had've gotten injured, they probably would have played Pilon) and didn't do great with the bat, although he's a very good gloveman. Coyle, Tasmania's coach, alluded to Victoria guaranteeing him games, but I'd doubt that would be the case - he's just engaging in some gamesmanship. Although I'd expect him to play at some stage of the season.

Shippy and Saker (even though his contract wasn't renewed) both had big wraps on him from their time in Tassie. Believe he made a 100 in a grade final (same one that Watson made 300 in).

I guess Chuck Berry taking over Saker's role is the other big change in Victorian cricket.

 

[brockley]

Why did they do away with saker he did a good job.
Be interested who gets the academy position.
Perm its news and contracts are coming out soon may 14 so their will be discussion about that.
Am interested who new south wales will contract this season,wouldn't mind allan wise from victoria the vics will have to sign 8/9 pacemen this year who played or cu a few.
