Not the Redbacks anymore... in name anyway

I like McSweeney, just needs help in the middle order

Pretty bad that as a state he needs to be captain

I think he’s a great captain pick, already been in a leadership position for Australia A. Good way to keep him from a Queensland poaching, because I’m sure captaincy was dangled there too.

Hopefully it doesn’t impact on his game negatively the way it did with Hunt.

I wonder who preliminary contact was made by if Gillespie and Niesen weren't keen?

 

[Redline]

McSweeney the new captain and Greg Blewett just announced Dizzy will be the new Pakistan Test coach

I like it. Jake Lehmann was such a poor choice.

Nugget Reese?

3 relatively unknowns, but above the right handers in Blocker Wilson and Gilly. Swain, Young and Harrity. I did research, but only would have guessed Harrity tbh.

Couldn't think of anyone else

I didnt realise Sangha was 24, feels like hes been around for ever.

Not unhappy with either pick ups

4 years ago they were the the "next big things" and would have been un-gettable. Haven't come on I guess?

Averaging under 30.

That's very SA recruiting focus, hopefully it's on the up

Should absolutely be looking at Kuhnemann

Should absolutely be looking at Kuhnemann

Maybe even Burns for a year or 2? His first half of the season was pretty solid and his first class record is still strong.

Head and JFM opening combo in the WC absolutely a possibility now through sheer weight of runs

It would be great for SACA to see him translate this form to shield.

a 65 from 18 balls probably still gets you H/S for the SACA most games.

Crash Craddock mentioned that Warner, who some comparisons are being made to with JFM, had a far better defence early in his career and that is why he was able to succeed in the longer formats with his more attacking approach. JFM needs to still work on that side of his game for the longer formats if he wants to push for the Test side eventually, just can't seem to reign it in against tight bowling.

That was something noticeable is the Shield games I saw him play, just needed to get through a few overs, but just couldn't do it.

Hopefully for the sake of Australian cricket he can get it right, or we just get to see him in T20s

The trade between the two sides saw the Strikers send Agar and their round two pick to the Thunder, in return receiving the Sydney sides’ second round pick, subsequently improving the Strikers draft position.
