What if one apple is a blatant media whore, and the other apple’s only expectation is that it survives a mediocre life?
Don't mind me an Eddie Delicious.

So they decide to add a other spinner for Sydney and make it bloody Agar.
Stupid ******s
Who would you prefer?

If they're dropping M Marsh it makes sense to bring in somebody who knows how to hold a bat.

Appears as though they’ll drop a seamer for a spinner and Marsh bowls more.
So SOK or Holland. Both of which dominate domestically in Australia. More so than Agar.

SOK is a campaigner who they all hate. Holland isn't anything special.
If anything they should bring in Maxwell.

Wasn't the basis of my partly tongue in cheek response. I'm all for taking over the ground for Shield matches that draw less than 100 people. **** the AFL.
Disgusting in what is already the worst pitch in Australia now has the worst curator. Pathetic standards being set by the MCC.

F*** that. It's the 21st century, you host the event at the most appropriate stadium.

Not surprising that a Geelong flog might not understand this though...

Hahahahhaa Warner holes out to Ellen.

Embarrassing dismissal that could cost us the match.

I have NFI what you’re arguing.

I make an off the cuff comment about the pitch. You retort about crowds not being the determinant of success. I state I’m all for Cricket Victoria having right of way for the G as I hate seeing the Vics get pushed onto some park ground... you say something irrelevant about Geelong.

What are you exactly arguing?

Both are better than Agar who’s better as a bowler than Maxwell... the guy that barely bowls for his state :$

They haven’t picked the best spinner. That’s the problem, he’s probably 3rd-4th best

Fairly simple. 1) The crowds mask the failings of the pitch, so all parties have been able to pretend that nothing is wrong for awhile now.

2) The Shield being shipped off to Junction Oval is exactly how it should work. The MCG is wasted on first class cricket if there's an alternative.
 
What is the best position in cricket? I think a spinning all-rounder, or a spinner who can bat a little bit. Don't have to be particularly good at anything, and you probably sit in the slips so you don't get hurt. Always involved in the game, and can probably play into your late 30s.

1) you’re right. Don’t think it’s a coincidence we have 0 test players despite 3 shield titles. We play on shite drop ins. The other state with a drop in. 0 test players.

How we can be the best state side for the last 3 years and not have 1 bowler or batsman is worthy of a review within Cricket Victoria.

2) couldn’t disagree more.
 
Hello everyone, Geelong flog here.
Why are they still playing when Australia already won 3-0?
It was nice of the Tigers to let them use their stadium for the game though

Apart from Maxwell getting shafted a few times, we've done alright in recent years with national selections.

It's not the pitch that's the problem (SA's lack of players was happening long before drop-ins), it's a cultural thing. Maxwell was right about his comment on batting behind Wade, and you wouldn't see NSW still giving red ball games to a player like Finch. They say producing Australian cricketers is the #1 priority, but the evidence suggests that's not entirely true.

Still, if you blame the pitch, Junction Oval and it's permanent track should at least help remedy that. :rainbow:
