[eth-dog]

Cullen Bailey to the viccas, what a gun side it would be then:

Jewell
Quiney/Rogers
Hodge
Dave Hussey
White
McDonald
Wade
Siddle
McGain
Bailey
Nannes.

Harwood in for Bailey in ODD side, thats about it.

 

[whichone]

Mitch Johnson to WA

 

[linger_isgod]

[eth-dog]

[Cleavy]

Mitch Johnson to WA

No way would Victoria play 2 spinners.

[bigsby]

Have just heard that SA are chasing George Bailey very hard for next year, you would think he would be just what the SACA's need to build there batting line up around... offering a fair bit of cash as well...

Yep i heard this one only this week from a fairly reliable source also

 

[Cleavy]

Klinger is officially a Redback today.

 

[eth-dog]

Thank god we got rid of that hack

Interesting that the Vics supposedly made a late ditch bid for Pommersbach....I can't see how he could've been slotted into the slide, but I supposed "nothing ventured, nothing gained."

[pinkus maximus]

if we lost pommers, heads would roll at the waca

 

[hujsh]

"It is understood that Pomersbach has nearly doubled his base salary of $48,000."

Well shite you'd hope so.

Kilnger gone you beauty, i was sick and tired of his slow batting in the One dayers.

Klinger is officially a Redback today.

I can't open the link previously given

i'm assuming that he was offered captaincy and a golden ticket regardless of form ?

 

[roostersgal4eva]

more importantly, are we going to be able to keep Ryan Harris?

 

[Cleavy]

more importantly, are we going to be able to keep Ryan Harris?

from article:
They were also hoping to retain Ryan Harris, the allrounder who had a breakthrough season in 2007-08, however questions over his status have been raised after he used his British passport to sign as a local player with Sussex. South Australia are seeking clarification from Harris over his intentions for the next Australian season.

In funnier news, South Australia could be on the brink of signing up to four New South Wales players, according to the Redbacks coach Mark Sorell. Greg Mail, Aaron O'Brien, Tom Cooper and Grant Lambert would all be heading to Adelaide next season...

 

[roostersgal4eva]

I dont mind Main - have NFI about the others

Cant be any worse than what we got thats for sure

 

[Cap]

more shite here

ok Mail i know and ain't that unhappy with.

Losing Harris that would piss me off, the other guys are a bit soso cause i haven't heard of them.

Atleast with Klinger and Mail we have two batsmen

 

[Devoid]

I think Tom Cooper would actually be a pretty good get for the Redbacks. Not sure what his record is like in NSW state cricket but he's got a fair bit of talent.

Mail
Klinger
Cooper
Christian
O'Brien
Lambert
Manou

What a top 7 - one with a first class average above 30

On a positive note, O'Brien would be a decent inclusion for the one day side - unless your name's Nathan, and Cooper at least is young. Have to think they should be aiming higher from the NSW list

is that combined

Its also interesting to see 1 SA lad in there - must be great for the SACA

I still think Cossie and Ferg will be No.3 and 4

 

[Smokey_22]

Cooper is a great get. He was the best batsman of his group coming through the Aussie youth comps. Just couldnt get a spot in NSW due to depth. Joins his ex-club mate christian.
Could play tests in the future.

It's official that Harris has left us http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0,22606,23548272-12428,00.html

SOUTH Australian allrounder Ryan Harris has delivered yet another blow to the ailing Redbacks.

Harris, 28, has rejected a last-ditch bid by SA coach Mark Sorrell, and accepted a three-year deal to play for Queensland next season.

He is likely to get plenty of bowling for the Bulls, with vetern paceman Andy Bichel recovering from shoulder surgery and Ashley Noffke likely to be lost to Australian duties.

Harris is playing for English county side Sussex where he made an immediate impact in his opening match where he took four wickets.

His defection leaves SA's bowling stocks looking thin, especially after the retirement of former Test ace Jason Gillespie.

Wonderful work SACA...
