Almost 20 years without a Shield, more importantly. Enough of this limited overs stuff. I want some red ball success.
I care more about that than Aus winning the Ashes as it's been so long. And they've got a real chance as they've got so many young players with decent first class experience under their belt.

The team does look good. Always nice when you can have a couple of ins like NCN and Berhendorff.

Well done lads. A Shield now.

Anyone know when Marsh is back bowling?
Winning a player of the series award without bowling a ball is a huge leap of improvement for the lad.

I think Shaun was Player of the Series, though Mitch would have been close on merit also.
Shaun was player of the series. Mitch player of the match.
Huge credit to JL and the coaching staff along with all the players, I cant recall this sort of optimism around a WA squad since the glory days of back to back shields in the late 90s. There's just so much talent at our hands. 10 of the 11 have represented Australia and you throw in Paris, Agar, Stoinis, Mackin and Whiteman and the squad runs so deep. And with the likes of Mitch, Turner, Hilton and Bancroft coming through together, the memories they make acheiving this success will carry them forward. I've loved the response on Twitter of the past players too, Damien Martyn, Mitch Johnson and Marcus North in particular paying tribute to the squad.
Really must deliver a Shield now - realistically what will our top 11 be for the 1st match? A couple of players are going to be very unlucky.

Your first XI will be:
Bancroft
Marsh
Cartwright
Turner
Marsh
Stoinis
Inglis
Agar
Coulter-Nile
Behrendorff
Mackin
which is ridiculously strong.

Klinger is stiff to miss
In one sense yes because he's been a gun player and is still in pretty good touch as a batsman.
In one sense no because it's a competitive top order and I can't see who I would not pick in front of him. Stoinis perhaps.
Only option would have been to have Bancroft keeping and play Stoinis at 7
Surely Mackin plays ahead of Moody?

Bancroft would be the one to bat down the order in that scenario, Stoinis would probably open if that were the case actually.
IMO he's clearly ahead of Stoinis. Only reason he'd miss is because he's apparently not in Ashes contention which is a rubbish contention when you consider the careers Voges and Rogers had late in their cricketing life. Same issue with Cowan.

Difference is Voges and Rogers had FC averages in the late 40's compared to Klinger's sub 40 average.
Better than Stoinis' mid 30's average.
