Bloody hell that is a strong squad and don't need Holland in that side with Maxwell and short in the side go Bolland

Holland is a gun OD spinner.

Be interesting to see what they do as Handscomb kept last year, but Harper was brilliant in BBL

If he keeps gives us more options but don't think he wants to keep

 

[eth-dog]

I suspect we want to put time into Harper for now. He's the best pure keeper in Victoria. Does anybody know what Puck bowls?

 

[ChamaraSen90]

assuming Andrew McDonald is coaching Victoria this season right?
does anyone know the members of the Victorian coaching staff who will be coming to Perth next week?

I assume all of them? Professional sporting organisation and all that. Who they are I don't know

* that is a strong squad.

First game should be a cracker. WA will have something like:

Short
Whiteman (+)
Marsh
Turner
Stoinis
Philippe
Agar
NCN
Paris
Richardson
Behrendorff

Don't really like Agar at 7, but I think he bats there until Marsh/Bancroft come back

Boland in for Short?

Boland in for Short?

Would have Short as the 5th batsman picked honestly, and Boland's ODD tournament last year was average IMO

When does it start next weekend? love watching Victoria more than the Aussie's some times..if they were on same time and no vic's in Aussie side I would watch the vics

 

[Drunkcat]

Harris wont be playing for Australia this year so hope he has a big year for us and not drop his head and have a bad year

 

[Art Vandelay_]

I’m definitely not ready for the post Cameron White era just yet.

Reckon it’ll be about our 2nd match and I’ll miss seeing Bear in the team

Just flicked over to Fox Cricket to catch us belting the Blues with Whitey tonning up, such a great game! Will be very strange to see Victoria without him

Thanks for that I thought I was getting this game on fox lift your game fox

As if! NSW are in Brisbane so Fox are in Brisbane...

 

[Drunkcat]

Sad bear is gone but I want to find players who will play for Australia....Will Pukovski is next in line and wat too see M Short S Harper W Sutherland M Harvey lift there game to a new level this year

 

[Bwillow11]

Well, that was a dismal performance from the Vics today. The team really needs changing, too many players who are letting us down.

Peter Handscomb needs to be dropped, he has really fallen off a cliff with his lack of foot movement. Perhaps Harper deserves a go with the gloves, and Finch should become captain (no sense having Australian captain without a role in the team)

Harris has lost all his confidence since the Ashes, while Pucovski isn’t cut out for the one day game and should instead focus on FC. Maxwell is hit-and-miss, but his best is worthwhile keeping in the team. Just really needs to work on his pull shot, so too does Maddinson.

 

[eth-dog]

Assuming we lose again, which form suggests will happen, the last 3 games I'd like to see:

Finch
Harper (+)
Handscomb
Maxwell
Short
Harvey
Sutherland
Pattinson
O'Connell
Evans
Coleman

Give us a look at Zak Evans. He's supremely talented.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Much of the same thanks.
Harris needs time in the middle to regain form, a test spot is on the line.

CA won’t want him dropped
Maddinson likewise they won’t want dropped.

Maybe 1-2 changes from today but nothing drastic. Would probably replace Tremain tbh
