Rofe bowler of the future???/ he is 28 already, would want to be the near future

Should be looking at Mark Cleary he in the long run is going to be a much better allrounder than Watson, 3 inninngs for the Backs this season batting at like 9 his made 45,45 n 58 and has taken wickets too, has the ability to stay there with a class batsmen or go the tonk if need be, also good one day cricketer only 21, australias future champion i think!! Should move to NSW though it would improve his chances of selections

I wish people wouldn't be so quick to pump up their players as international material after a couple of good games.

I see Watson becoming a very good batsman, and maybe just an average bowler.

His century today sees his first-class average up above 40 now.

Watson and Katich would become valuable commodities if we were to play games in the sub continent because then would just add a lot of bowling depth. If we were to go into a game with just 2 quicks and 2 spinners then a player like Watson would be very hand if he could keep it tight from one end.
