How has he been thrown under a bus?Lets throw the kid under the bus already shall we.
"Once in a generation talent", weve set the kid up to fail. Hes about to come into the worst test side weve had in over 30 years with a trip to England to come. Hes also had his troubles with mental health, it should be the last thing we are doing.How has he been thrown under a bus?

Certainly a better representative of Australian men's tennis than the other 2 spoilt brats.He is a great guy, very humble. Got to know him at my gym, trains hard and religiously. Genuinely hope the best for this South Aussie.

You mean the guy who isn’t currently being considered for Davis Cup because he sulked and wouldn’t appear courtside to support his fellow countrymen when Hewitt picked Millman over him based on their practice form?Certainly a better representative of Australian men's tennis than the other 2 spoilt brats.
Hes almost as bad, hes been sulking for 2 years because Hewitt didnt pick him for Davis Cup.Certainly a better representative of Australian men's tennis than the other 2 spoilt brats.
See my post above. Get used to it for the next 6 years.No wonder Cricket in this country is failing. ffs no FTA coverage.
But according to Warne, Finch should be captain in all 3 forms.Finch continues his superb form.

Just did a Google search and discovered that all ODIs and International T20s (not including the World Cups) will only be shown on Foxtel for the next 6 years. I have a feeling that this will be looked back in hindsight as a terrible deal for Australian cricket as they suffer from lack of exposure and media coverage.
And ??Just checked the score. Khawaja realises this isn’t a Test match, right? 29 off 49 balls!

The Seven deal was a prime example of CA’s general air of disregard for those they deal with. They were obsessed with topping a billion dollars to stand alongside the AFL and NRL. How to get there wasn’t important. Nine was the stale old-school partner. Network Ten had done the game a service, growing the Big Bash from a joke fluorescent league that no one could watch on pay TV to a summer staple in a world that accepted ‘the Brisbane Heat’ as a reasonable concept. People found a new presentation refreshing, it was free to air, and the viewer average jumped from 236,000 a night to nearly a million on Ten. Now the BBL was successful, CA wanted every dollar back.
Nine and Ten offered a joint deal. Amarfio met them for less than fifteen minutes and dismissed it as ‘non-compliant’. Peever asked Ten’s American owner CBS not to ‘include local management as I feel they are not prepared to challenge their operating model to be anything other than bottom feeders’. All totally normal and professional.
Ten went all in: $960 million for the lot. Their secondary channels would broadcast men’s and women’s Big Bash, domestic one-dayers, even the white elephant Sheffield Shield. It could have been an amazing coup for cricket. But you may have noticed that 960 million is less than a billion. So CA signed all the valuable games to Foxtel, as long as a free-to-air partner would simulcast Tests and some BBL.
Ten was told this was now all they could bid for. They offered $80 million a year and Sutherland shook on it. Then Seven was allowed another bid, worth $82 million. The network that had revitalised cricket broadcasting and made CA’s risky Big Bash gamble a winner was punted over comparative pocket change. Sutherland made an appearance with the victorious network heads, the three of them trying to manage various bits of cricket gear in a photo as awkward as David Cameron posing with a pig.
He's not in the same league as the other 2 & you know it!Hes almost as bad, hes been sulking for 2 years because Hewitt didnt pick him for Davis Cup.
Plus hes a mad Power fan.
