to the people who think macgill is good like u saj lol TOLD YA SO!!!
sangakarra really struggled with those different varities of full tosses he bowled didnt he??[/quote
That was 1 innings in his 42 match career so that instantly makes him a bad player bcos of 1 bad performance. Id like to c how most bowlers wud bowl wen the cant feel the ball in their hands?

when u post the second half of this post in english ill comment.
The first part doesnt mean shite. Like i previously said HE TOOK THOSE WICKETS BECAUSE HE HAD MCGRATH AND WARNE BOWLING AT THE OTHER END KEEPING IT TIGHT. He doesnt have that any more and now we are seeing the real worth of macgill. Guys like Brett Lee who i have critised in the past have stepped up to the plate to show his worth. Macgill is showing what is really all about now, and it aint much.
Hogg is not the answer im defiantley not saying that. I would prefer dan cullen get a shot, have to play a young spinner sometime so he can learn from it, just like we did with warnie.
The whole "one day specialist" title is a bit of a '90s cliche. The fact is Hogg has improved his bowling repertoire quite well and the situation is that we need a spinner now, not when Macgill decides to lose a few kilos. I think Hogg at least deserves a second chance given the circumstances... if he sucks again then that's it.Hogg is a one-day specialist. The Indians would carve his test career into oblivion.
Blimpy boy still has a few tricks up his sleeve.
Aussie one day players remember that could probably make it into nearly any other test team around the world... well some anyway. I agree that one day form does not necessarily translate to test form but at the moment Hogg is in good form and should not miss out purely because of his test cricket history.

Brett Lee made his come back through the one day side. Like I said if Hoggy ends up as shite as MacGill atm then yeah let him stick to the white ball but deserves a go I reckon. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
cheers anyway
I wouldn't say I'm a Hogg fan as such but I definitely am looking forward to seeing him bowl instead of MacGill who has lost variety. Hoggy has a bit of spring in his step and like I posted previously his wrong'ns are doing the job ATM. MacGill is still at KFC chowing on a MacGillaFilla.
Where were you before today? Stewy wouldn't have gone any better. Admittedly he was not pitching it as well as he had been but if you think his knock in the 1st innings was not important you must be drunk. The only problem Hogg had today was he didn't make them play enough for a team that wasn't playing to win the match. Still enjoyed watching him bowl for the most part of both tests.Thread closed. Hogg is crap.
Who cares whether he can bat and field, he can't take wickets on Australia's biggest turner. The guy is a hack.
Lucky for Australians we had the umpires on the take.
When do you feel that will be?
Well it will probably be four quicks for Perth. I think you are getting carried away with the whole SCG thing though. Hogg is not the sort of spinner who is going to perform better on the SCG wicket like the slower spinners.
