Apologies if this has been posted - couldn't see it. Should actually be really entertaining this year! Australian squad: Grant Birchall, Travis Boak, Luke Breust, Patrick Dangerfield, Dustin Fletcher, Nat Fyfe, Brendon Goddard, Robbie Gray, Brent Harvey, Luke Hodge, Kieren Jack, Steve Johnson...

ZoBlitz threw it out there in the Vent thread that this might be a good idea for a thread of its own and I agree. Have found the discussion and analysis from the posters on here very interesting on this topic and I reckon it'd be good to have one place where people can put their thoughts out and...

This kicks off on Sunday - Sandhu and Ferguson have just been added to the squad. Both games are at ABF and entry is free. The OD quad series also involves South Africa A and the Australian National Performance Squad. This is a really good run-down of the four-day stuff...

Due to depression - feel for the bloke. I'm hoping that recent events have made it easier for players to come out and put their hand up and say they need help. Leaves with a very tidy FC and BBL record. All the best Luke...

Looking like Watson in for Marsh and Pattinson in for Siddle (!) for us. Kyle Abbott or another paceman in for Parnell and Peterson back in for De Kock. Should be a cracker.

On this episode of the BigFooty Cricket Podcast we look in-depth at the second test in South Africa and discuss what we can do in the third. A shorter episode this time around as we dissect what happened and try to work out what we can do next time. Also some discussion on overweight cricketers...

Melbourne: Wright, Hafeez, Hodge, Hussey, Stoinis, Handscomb, Keath, Hastings, Rose, Boland and Worrall. Perth: Simmons, Katich, Whiteman, Voges, M Marsh, Turner, Cummins, Behrendorff, Thomas, Hogg and Beer Hafeez debuting for the Stars, Scorchers need to win for a home final. Should be good!

Should be interesting to see how we follow up and how England respond after another loss followed by a comprehensive tour win. Watto is out for us and Johnson is expected to return, with Australia expected to go with a four man pace attack. For the English, Carberry is expected to come in for...

It's a short form fiesta this week on the BigFooty Cricket Podcast as we cover the first ODI and preview the second to kick it off, followed by a spectator's report and some analysis from Kyptastic on the Primer Minister's XI debacle practice match. We discuss the state of leg-spin in Australia...

Back from a holiday hiatus, the BF Cricket Podcast team go over Australia's historic whitewash victory against the English. We talk about which players stood up, how safe George Bailey is, our most memorable moments and go in-depth on the Sydney test. We then cast our eyes over to the ODI stage...

We cast our eyes over the Adelaide test, Jonathan Trott's departure, what we can expect from the Aussies, the English line-up in this preview of the second Ashes test. We also cast our eyes over the Shield to this date to see where the reserves might be coming from. With Torz, Cooksen and...

The BigFooty Cricket Podcast crew analyse the first test; the amazing result, Mitchell Johnson's big return, a Warner Ashes ton, Captain Clarke vs Captain Cook, a fired up Stuart Broad and more in this episode. With Torz, Kyptastic, Cooksen and myself. Second test preview will be up tomorrow...

On the eve of the first Ashes test in the home stretch, the BF Cricket podcast takes an in-depth look at the Australian lineup, moving from player to player to analyse how they fit, what they bring (or don't bring) to the table and what we can see them doing. It's a longer episode to welcome...

Disclaimer (as usual): An Ashes first test preview will be up later today, this is for posterity. This episode is mostly about farewelling a legend in Sachin Tendulkar. The team speaks about their favourite memories of his and where they see his standing in the game as his career comes to a...

Disclaimer: Still behind, but we'll be caught up soon! Thanks to everyone who's listened so far. This episode we continue our Ryobi Cup coverage, with Eth-Dog joining us for a special rundown on the Victorian Bushrangers (with some special gushing about Peter Handscomb). We also talk about...

Very solid start by the top 3 for Victoria - 2/188 after 37. Wade and White starting to unleash the fireworks. Teams: Commonwealth Bank Bushrangers: Rob Quiney, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade (c/wk), Cameron White, David Hussey, Peter Handscomb, Daniel Christian, John Hastings, Peter...

Apologies if this should go elsewhere. http://www.lions.com.au/news/2013-10-14/clarke-commits-to-lions Great to see - I think we all expected it, but having a player that (I see) as important to our future as Clarke seems to be sign on for 3 years is a load off our shoulders in terms of...

Disclaimer: We've had some teething problems with getting this up, so this information may well be fairly dated. But we've done our best to edit it so it's not too out of date. Episode 3 will be up mid-week, then we're aiming for a regular Sunday release. Thanks for everyone who has listened and...

Hey guys, Torz, Cooksen and myself got together and had a crack at this a little while ago. Apologies for it being outdated, things were pretty hectic with the footy season wrapping up :p. We mostly talk about the 4th and 5th ODIs, a bit about Zimbabwe's big win over Pakistan and some...

Not sure if anyone is staying up (or getting up!) to watch this, thought I'd chuck up a thread. After what we can all agree was a pretty dismal Ashes series, it'd be nice to salvage the smallest of victories in the shorter formats. Won't be an easy ask but really I'm just hoping for some good...

Saw some chat in the game thread about it, so figured I'd start the thread up outside so we can talk about what you'd like to see. Despite the result, I wouldn't like too many changes. For me: OUT: Docherty/Harwood, Maguire, Polkinghorne IN: Mayes/Green (if Mayes isn't ready yet), Merrett...

http://www.espncricinfo.com/australia/content/story/627034.html A lot of people have mentioned his action is a bit suss, so it's probably a good move to work it out one way or another. The bloke is still young so he can work through it if it gets found out to be illegal, and if not he can keep...

Game starts in a couple of hours. Looks like they've gone without Sayers and Turner in the final line-up. The XI as it stands currently: LR Butterworth, AJ Doolan, MG Gale, MS Harris, TM Head, SO Henry, UT Khawaja*, GJ Maxwell, SL Rainbird, D Solway, SM Whiteman† There's a decent mix of...

Hey guys, I'm writing a (lighthearted) article on the whole Pick 88 thing and I was wondering if there were any ever significant players picked up at this pick? Is there a good website in general to see where players in the past where picked at certain picks? I always have trouble finding...

Hello all. Since it's the off-season and three days into the trade period I already want to bash my head against a brick wall, I thought I'd try to start something a little different. At various times there have been players that, for whatever reason, didn't make the grade at the Lions and...

In Wellington, Saints vs Swans. Anzac Day. Great step forward - will be good for the expats and will be interesting to see the turn-out. Shame they couldn't use Eden Park in Auckland, but ANZ is nice enough. http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/147501/default.aspx

Hey guys, I spoke to Mark Williams recently and he had quite a bit to say about Port. I thought you guys might be interested in his role in getting Giles to GWS, his feelings about the win against you blokes and so on...

Hey guys, I've got an interview with Mark Williams coming up this Sunday, is there anything you supporters would like to ask him? Anything about certain players, stuff around the club etc? Really anything that interests you. Will post a link when it's done :)

We all know he's down on form badly, but he's a huge body, proven at AFL level, young and well experienced in big/tough games. So please no trolly answers or dropped chest mark gifs, I'm genuinely interested in your responses. Just a few hypotheticals: 1. If Chris Dawes was traded at the end...

Honestly a bloody tough one this week. GWS's only real decent eligible player was Conigilio and he got it last week. Sam Blease from the Dees, despite his team getting trashed, is a good chance. 29 disposals. If Josh Caddy from the Suns is eligible, he had 27 disposals. But in another loss...
