He was behind Perry, Siddle, Sutherland, Boland, O'Neill, Elliott and McClure at a minimum in Vic, but he's talented.
Western Australia contract list 2024-25: Cameron Bancroft, Mahli Beardman (rookie), Hilton Cartwright, Cooper Connolly, Brody Couch, Keaton Critchell, Sam Fanning, Cameron Gannon, Cameron Green (CA contract), Sam Greer (rookie) Jayden Goodwin, Aaron Hardie (CA), Liam Haskett, Baxter Holt, Josh Inglis (CA), Bryce Jackson, Matthew Kelly, Mitchell Marsh (CA), Lance Morris (CA), Hamish McKenzie, Joel Paris, Corey Rocchiccioli, D'Arcy Short, Charlie Stobo, Ashton Turner, Josh Vernon (rookie), Corey Wasley (rookie), Sam Whiteman, Teague Wyllie
No Agar stoinis the Dorrf.....freelance...says they will play for WA when available/required
looking forward to seeing baxter holt with the gloves and the development of Goodwin and Wyllie this year along with Cooper Connolly

I'm looking forward to Goodwin as well.
And hopefully Wasley surpassing the Wyllie hype.
Largely unproven in the one day game. Cooper Connolly hopefully gets first try as I seriously rate his left arm orthodox in the format. Added bonus being he's a genuinely good number 7 unlike penis head Agar.

For whatever reason they seemed very reluctant to bowl him last year, both in Marsh Cup and in the BBL.
Expect Agar will still play all the white ball stuff if fit - AJ played the bulk of the Marsh Cup despite playing under a similar arrangement last season.

Stoin convinced Agar to give the State cricket contract away and focus on the T20 circuit. Makes sense really.

Stoinis chat sealed white-ball free agent deal for Agar
West Australian spinner Ashton Agar says a discussion with close mate and fellow Australian cricketer Marcus Stoinis helped seal the deal on leaving state cricket behind to become a white-ball free agent.

One way to convince yourself why you aren't getting selected in the Shield and Marsh teams I guess.Stoin convinced Agar to give the State cricket contract away and focus on the T20 circuit. Makes sense really.

Beardman bolts into Aussie squad after Bartlett injury
West Australian speedster Mahli Beardman has earned a bolt-from-the-blue call-up to Australia’s one-day international squad.
thewest.com.au
Obviously a development call, but still a strong vote of confidence in Mahli.
(Fingers crossed the serial killers on the national S&C team don't cripple him before the season starts.)
Disappointing start in the One Day Cup
With the white ball series finally completed in the UK, the reinforcements are on their way.

Not just the losses but the nature of them... the collapse against SA was unforgivable.
Might be too late now unfortunately.
Can see Bryce Jackson lining up against the bulls next week along with Brody Couch both fast arm medium ..both of them might play plus Gannon and Kelly most likely one out of Jackson or couch will play ...stobo in the mix as well along with Roccho
Jhye Morris both will be managed....like seriously what's the F**king point either play or don't getting sick of this s88t
Paris already has a FF**KEN calf and Haskett has stress fractures
Going to be huge challenge for Voges this year..managing the quicks

CA will manage them to an inch of their life and still not pick them this summer.
I feel like fast bowlers (except Bruce Reid) were more durable before the sports science of load management stepped in...
Are today's young quicks made of paper mache or has sports science just ****ed up along the way?

If anything they're more durable, Cummins, Starc, Hazelwood played all 7 tests last summer which is unheard of. Cummins had his troubles early in his career though.
There was probably more of a culture of sucking it up and bowling through injuries more back then. Lillee's career nearly ended before he turned 25 because of it. McDermott, Alderman, Harris, Lee, Gillespie all lost years off their careers because of bowling-related injuries.
The only exceptions seem to be Thomson and McGrath whose major injuries came from non-bowling mishaps. McGrath's style obviously didn't put his body under a lot of stress. I've heard from a coach who was around back then that Thomson's action was why he mostly kept out of trouble. He also said Jhye Richardson's is why he's always on the physio table.

I suspect injury prone fast bowlers were simply weeded out earlier in the past. Improved sports science and load management means we nurse them further along before realising they are not up to the strain. Being a fast bowler is difficult.
The bowlers today get more of a chance to make it but then the disappointment is greater given they get so close before injury pulls it away.
Looking at the squad that has been picked for the second XI, I’d suspect our first team might look like this to begin with:
Bancroft
Whiteman
Goodwin
Marsh
Cartwright
Connolly
Inglis +
Kelly
Stobo
Couch/Gannon
Rocc
Second XI:
Wyllie
Fanning
Short
Turner
Curtis
Critchell
Holt +
Agar
Richardson
Vernon
Beardman
Unavailable: Morris (managed), Paris (calf), Haskett (back), Green (back), Hardie (quad)
