tas: of course their only title
nsw: tio many to pick from
w.a: 98, that team was well ballenced from top to bottom
vic: 2003. dominated all year
s.a: 95. got the one they lost in 95

For WA the 92 side was a gun outfit, beat NSW in a final in which the Waugh brothers both scored centuries... and Mike Whitney had a day out.

The 98 team mentiond above had Katich, Hussey and Gilchrist and won two shield titles but I still don't think it was as strong all round as this (esp. in the bowling dept):

1992:
Geoff Marsh
Mike Veletta
Justin Langer
Tom Moody
Damien Martyn
Wayne Andrews
Tim Zoehrer
Brendan Julian
Jo Angel
Terry Alderman
Bruce Reid

WA must have had some brilliant sides in the 80's but I wasn't exactly watching a lot of state cricket then...

WA's 80/81 side was pretty solid.

Wood
Laird
Shipperd
Hughes
O'Neill
Serjeant
Marsh+
Yardley
Lillee
Malone
Alderman

Especially when you look at the Queensland side they beat in the final;

Wessels
Kent
G.Chappell
Border
Ritchie
Broad
Hohns
Phillips+
Dymock
Thomson
Rackemann
