Watson breaks down AGAIN

[eddiesmith]

you train your whole life for one event, the world cup and that is cut short. You wouldnt be mad or sad?

Unlike most of the team, he has many more chances

now blame him for having talent/potential?

WHAT? All I am saying is he is young, there are more world cups ahead of him, jeez, its not the ****ing end of the world or his career

neither did I say that, im just saying everyone seems to think he has been given his place for no reason what so ever.

Australia has a lot of talent depth, give a lot of domestic players the chances that Robot has been given and they would have made a better fist of it.

Never good news for an injury, but would rather Hodge in the team anyway.

 

[spell_check]

Hodge comes in and our team looks even better.

 

[Oh When the Saints]

Hodgey !!

Watch the Victorian Run Machine guide Australia to World Cup victory.


Never deserved to be dropped ... now gets his chance again

 

[dmc333]

Should have all limbs amputated, replaced with mechanical ones, wouldn't even need to change his action.

 

[eddiesmith]

Hodge wont play the next game, Watson will fit or not

 

[metallicamatty]

Who will then Einstein?

Watson wont miss, geez cant you read?

 

[ViperV10]

That improves the Australian team immeasurably. They should now be unbackable to win the WC with the only bloke who could single handedly lose a game for them out of the team.

Your analysis clearly shows that you watch the game. Obviously a scholar.

 

[frankrizzo]

Watson will fit or not

kinky, lets us know how it goes.

 

[smasha]

He seriously needs to harden the **** up and stop loooking like a pansy little girl. I think that they shouldnt bring in Hodge.

I saw the S.A. next to your name.

Well -good on you fine sir.

I love the Tait!

 

[Homer Jnr]

Gotta feel sorry for the lad.

Some of the Victorian based hatred for him on here is pretty low and petty. You are an Australian first, and a Victorian second, Watson is in our best 11, so theoretically you should be concerned for Watson.

We don't lose too much by adding Hodge, but now with the order pretty well set, he will most likely bat at 7 and bowl 3-4 overs, meaning he won't get a chance to strut his stuff. Just a forewarning before you all have a cow that he is getting no chances.

 

[Slay Master G]

While I feel sorry for Watson, it was a matter of when, not if he would break down.

Symonds is out of touch with the bat, so I think he should go to 7.

Perhaps they should be flexible with the batting order.

If they are 3 down for not many, then Hodge should go in, if they are flying, then Roy should bat at 5.

Yeah that could definitely work. But I reckon they'll go a settled lineup - probably Hodge at 7, I reckon he'd do well there anyway, can dig in if things are bad, or come in and tonk quickly a la his 20/20 brilliance.

Shame about Watson, he was really starting to look ok at no 7 (and i'm a Victorian!!!).

 

[eddiesmith]

As expected the injury isnt major and he will be back and playing in the world cup, guess Hodgey will have to hope someone else breaks down if he wants to play in a world cup final

 

[metallicamatty]

So he's gonna play in the next game in a weeks time?

Damn.. thats bad news

He's actually not a Queenslander, he's Tasmanian

Ipswich he comes from. Went to Tassie because he saw to much talent ahead of him in Qld.

Perhaps he is just unlucky.
