My prediction is that Voges will be dropped for Mitch Marsh.

He's the most junior batsman in the team so will be the first to be dropped and they'll go for Mitch because they want an extra bowling option to cover for Johnson going at 4.5 an over.
And that is how it should be.
 
If he doesnt perform next test I dont give a shit if we won. Go ahead and drop him but based off this test you cannot drop him before voges or clarke.

Nonsense, total nonsense. Of course you can drop him. You don't just drop him for being bad in this match, you drop him for being bad for years. It is completely crazy to suggest that Clarke should be dropped before Watson because he had a bad test.

Clarke has been shit for a while now.

I don't like it but our selectors give me no confidence that they'll make the hard calls (in this case the easy call).

All and sundry can see Watson out and Marsh In as logical but I won't be surprised if Voges makes way so golden goose can get another game.
 
Gym for life is a troll. He's a filthy basement lurking scumbag who's probably never been in the gym in his entire life. Every time we quote him we feed his appetite more than the doritos and mountain dew sustain him whilst he is simultaneously streaming LoL and playing WoW - i guarentee you he isnt even watching the cricket.

I already regret quoting him earlier and giving oxygen to this moronic troll

That's the problem, A golden goose is useless. What you need is a Goose that lays the golden eggs.
 
Voges did do the complete opposite of what he was selected for though and that does have to be acknowledged.

He was brought in to be the mature head who doesn't throw his wicket away.

He disappointed and Clarke is clearly passed it but they're still better options than Shaun Marsh.


Watson on the other hand has failed for longer and actually has a valid alternative. As does Haddin who needs to be moved on now

Really? I don't think there's as much of a gap between Marsh and Voges as people are making out to be.

Voges should hold his spot for the next test, but needs to put some more runs on the board.

I don't know why there's even still a debate about Watson. Get him out and Mitchell Marsh in. His selection in this test was a ludicrous message to be sending to the team.

This. Marsh dominates the tour matches with the bat, selectors pick Watson.
Soft selections = soft team.
 
Really? Last time I checked, excluding that joke of a Windies series, Clarke's last test innings was an unbeaten 138
Last 24 innings. Two tons. No other scores above 50. Definitely in a lean period is Michael!

gym4life goes onto the ignore list and I feel better already!
 
Australia should be unchanged, red hot favorites before the test, simply means 5-0 has to become 4-1.
 
England weren't even trying to disguise their plans to him. A bunch of short straight fielders, and literally every single ball fired in at the stumps.

They could not have been more obvious as to their tactics if they tried. Yet Watson just keeps blundering straight into the same trap over and over.

Forget his scores. It's the fact that he is completely unwilling or unable to adjust his game to address a glaringly obvious weakness that should see him dumped.

And that is worse then every other Australian batsmen who just threw their wickets away?

Think I'm just finding this out..

I am not a troll. That poster is just upset that I said carlton had no good players in a discussion with him on the main board.
