I'm a Victorian. I'm very ashamed to be a Victorian cricket fan.

As far as I'm aware, South Australians don't like Cameron White and Brad Hodge because they're Victorians. The same applies to Victorians, but vice versa.

What a farce, honestly.

Whoever represents Australia should be respected and giving the same treatment as everyone else - Interntional cricket is more relevant than State cricket and most Australians need to understand that. They're out there representing their country, themselves, but most importantly, Australians around the country who can't get enough cricket.

At the end of the day, Brad Hodge will represent Australia in the World Cup. Not Victoria.
 
Us South Australians do not like Hodge and Watson because they haven't done anything in the International level to prove that they should go to the world cup but yet the Victorians think they are absolutely awesome.

Brad Hodge got me on the bandwagon after his 99 and assured me of my decision with his runs on sunday night.

Cam White, I'm not convinved on as yet. A future gun, yes.

I like to see anyone in the Australian colours do well when representing his country. Hodge has definitely improved, still has a bit of work to do. White looked set for a gun summer but then collapsed.. and he can't bowl. If you come in at 7 you have to be able to roll the arm over.
 
Tait has great x factor....and is still young...only query i have is his wayward bowling could be costly.

Hodgey deserves to be there. White didn't do enough with the bat to show what he's capable of.
 
On this board, a lot of it is just a reaction when anyone from Victoria names any player in the Vic's Top 24 players as being 'on the fringe of national selection'.

Harwood? Please.

Klinger? About 4th or 5th in line.

Moss? Don't make me laugh.

Just keep pushing your locals within the realms of reality.
 
Exactly. This board is a total and utter joke. Why the hell wouldnt you like cricketers just because they come from a certain state? There is nothing to hate about White yet every ********er in Australia (Besides Victorians) hate him. Its even getting to the stage where you'd rather to see a player fail (Then to do well and win a game) becuase they come from a different state.

Its pathetic.

LoL.

You're South Australian. You're fans are just as bad as Victorians. You're more Anti-Victorian than Victorians are Anti-SA. And you talk up your players nearly as much as we do ours.

You idiot.

You dont like Hodge becuase he's Victorian. He just made 99* and top scored the other day yet he hasnt done enough? Who should have gone instead? Lehmann? :rolleyes:

Why take any notice of what bushranger says? Really, if you believe what he says, you're just as stupid as him.
 
I think the biggest problem is SA fans makes claims about Victorians wanting such and such in the team when it has not been mentioned anywhere

Moss being the perfect example as most dont even want him in the state team

As for Stickers, he obviously cant be that far away as he has played this summer

By far the worst offenders when it comes to close minded parochialism are the Vics. SA and Qld do it a bit too but Victorians act like small town hillbillys with their pumping up of the local boy. It really does get to the ridiculous point at times.

And then you've got a Pommie clown such as Steady Eddie who actually tries to act more rabid and one eyed than your most biased Mexican, because he is desperate to fit in as an Aussie.
