First test stars and flops
Yes, I was surprised by these stats as well. I knew Ponting always did well in first tests of a series, and ChappellG, but was v. surprised at Tubby's high ranking - I can't remember ever thinking that about him when he played. V. surprised about Border - but I guess he is more remembered for... -

Brown nosed gnome moves on ....
As someone has mentioned, Langer actually did fairly OK this summer, so I think he'll be around for a year or two yet. Which is good - means we get more "words of wisdom" -

You know, I hopped on to the board to start a thread entitled BNG : the sequel - but as usual someone has beaten me to it. Oh we're quick - thank god we're not as BN as the BNG:) -

elliot blacklisting - theories please
Don't disagree with you Zeke, got dropped because of poor form after his injury. Now unless I'm wrong, every player in the batting lineup has been dropped for poor form at some stage of their career - does that mean they are not the goods? No, it means they were having a bad trot. Elliott was... -

How many have you have served in the defence forces
Interesting question, and I admit to being surprised as to there being any ex-service people on the board. My great-grandfather and his 3 brothers all went to WW1 (2 didn't come back) My Grandfather, and three of my great uncles went to WW2 (all came back, although 1 with a bayonet in his...- Word Count: 110

Could Hodge be called up for Sri Lanka?
He's a pretty good player of spin, likes to use his feet, but has an occasional rush of blood. He's just one of those gold or dust players, you never really know how he's going to go. He's got 1000 runs this season, but having watched him for a long time, I will not be surprised if he gets... -

Could Hodge be called up for Sri Lanka?
Don't think he'll make it - has been very up and down over the years, not sure if the selectors have FAP written down next to him. (FAP - future Aus. player) -

elliot blacklisting - theories please
Well of course my opinion that he is better than Langer is just that, my opinion - I will stand by it, we will never know the truth of the matter, unless Langer busts his leg and gives Herb a chance..... -

elliot blacklisting - theories please
The comparison after 20 tests has EVERY relevance to the discussion!! At similar stages in their careers, Elliott, Hayden and Langer were almost exactly at the same level. Elliott was dropped from the team for injury, not loss of form - hence giving other people the chance to get in there. To... -

elliot blacklisting - theories please
Catmando, it is you who are delusional. I don't really know what you are trying to say. Zeke said Elliott didn't have what it takes. I said he did. He certainly had a slow start to his career, it was starting to take off when he got injured. I have shown in a previous post that at the... -

elliot blacklisting - theories please
An average of 35 is not the best, but 3 centuries and 4 fifties gave an indication of what would have happened. Hayden's average after 20 tests was 37, with 3 centuries and 4 fifties - zeke, are you saying he's no good as well???? -
P
elliot blacklisting - theories please
Yes, zeke we have considered it, and we know that he did / does have what it takes. Certainly better than the BNG, bit behind Haydo though -

elliot blacklisting - theories please
You want to know why Elliott was blacklisted - well here is the rumour I heard, I can't believe it hasn't cropped up yet. I have no idea how accurate it is, if at all, but here goes - When Elliott was in England, he fooled around a bit on the side. Somehow his missus found out, and when she... -

Harvey to go?
I have posted on this topic before, I am a Victorian but my views have not changed - Harvey will always be a fringe player for Australia, he just doesn't quite make the grade - he has been lucky in the past as we have had a lack of good all rounders in the side. Symonds is rapidly becoming one -... -

Brown nose gnome "furious"
But isn't that what bigfooty is all about - unprofessional overreactions? We are, after all, all one-eyed supporters.....
