well guys...some thing certainly have to change, we really need the rest of the team coming back! we need way more batting depth and we're missing that a lot atm, i think i shouldve had an earlier bowl last game as it was a spinners pitch. although i think i still need a lot to work on with my bowling.
about next match, strong squad, although i think i deserve to be higher then 9
I agree you deserve to be above #9, however so does every other player positioned from 1-8 in that team so unfortunately we can't please everyone. We'll be getting a better feel for a more defined order as the games go on. Chances are you'll still have a good chance to get a strong score, especially with Hoy as the next man in (he's got a nack for hanging around). We bat down to #10 with that order.

Once the guys come back from the VB series, I hope everyone in the team will understand that it will be a very tough call when choosing a starting XI - a lot of people have already put their hands up in FC and Age and I (and Blewy and I, at least briefly) have already talked about how much of a headache it's going to be. :p I know that if I make the side on return, then I'll be considering myself lucky, too.

As in actually finding 11 players competitive enough?

While we are missing our internationals we still definatley have the personel to dominate the opposition, we have to lift our games, and fast, so we can get some points on the board before we fall too far behind to catch up. lets hit the nets hard and find some form :)

I agree with age, and it's probably benefitial to everyone to just ignore marc entirely.

We do have the personnel capable of dominating the opposition and this has been shown in pre-season games as well as in our win over Blue - the problem for us has been consistency. One day our bowlers will take 10 wickets without too much of a problem, the next day they can't manage to take more than a wicket between them - and I can say similar things for the batting. But the facts remain that our players DO have the capability to rise up and score big runs and take wickets - so let's just keep our heads up, keep the bowlers coming in and keep our batsmen in the middle and the form will come for us, hopefully sooner rather than later.

I have complete faith in our team, with or without internationals.
