Re: Watto crafting a good innings here...

Or bat Watson at 4 and move Clarke, Symonds/Hodge and Hussey down 1 spot each?
Umm,pass.

Watson = 7 or nowhere

I rate Watson but I'd prefer nowhere. Given that the selectors want him in the side, I'd rather see him open or bat at #4 than at #7. If the only spot in the side for him is at #7, then don't play him.
 
Re: Watto crafting a good innings here...

If NZ do what they did last match they'll chase it down, all because Hayden batting so slowly for the first part.

400 would have given us a much better chance at winning but Hayden had to bat for himself early on.

Thankfully Tait has struck early and it doesn't look like they'll chase it, saving Hayden some blushes.
 
Re: Watto crafting a good innings here...

I would have thought more likely to be Watson = opening or nowhere.

It's clearly where he bats best.

Given the selectors insistence on including him in the side, and no chance of opening, it is 7 or nowhere.

Good troll! Well done on not backing away, but continuing to dig yourself deeper and deeper.
 
Re: Watto crafting a good innings here...

I have to admit I'm losing a bit of faith in Mitch Johnson. He's been slapped a few times now, but time is on his side.
Watson seriously though, yeh fair effort to get 68 but look at the attack he's facing, that is about the equivalent of Bangladesh' attack.

This or the Gilly @ 7 are the only options if Watson is playing, as he needs to bat in the top-4.

Deeper and deeper? Sorry what was that? ;)

400 was par on this pitch, but Hayden's selfishness in the first half of his innings, playing for his average, cost us the match

Ricketts on the money again. :thumbsu:

Hang your head in shame Matthew Hayden.
 
Re: Watto crafting a good innings here...

Looks set for a maiden ODI hundred.

Just testing the universal law of 'putting the mockers on someone'.

He'll be out within 5 minutes. ;)

Does anyone know who Watson has explicit photo's of cause it is the only thing I can think of that could possibly earn him a game for Australia.....
 
Shane Watson - Please ********** him off!

Is Shane Watson is the most overated sportsperson in the history of sport? Or is it only the Australian Selectors think that he has any talent whatsoever?

Australia won't win the world cup with this absolute dud in the team. Never seen a cricketer strut around a cricket field, thinking the sun shines out of his a$s as much as this bloke.

Is it too late to change our world cup squad and get rid of him!
I think all Australian Cricket Lovers should join in the chorus and start an Australian wide campaign to oust this pretender!
 
Re: Shane Watson - Please ********** him off!
