What do you do with Shane Watson?

[the_interloper]

i'm a good bloke (i really am!), so can i play for australia?

No cause we know you're a campaigner.

Not sure who was worse, him Shaun Young or Dan Cullen!

What about Beau Casson? Or Cameron White as a bowler?

Casson wasn't too bad, in fact he is another that deserved a home test. White, fair enough but one could say he should have got a go in the top 6.

Well Watto gets a gig, so why not lol

Oh goodness how did I forget that pie chucker!

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Yeah true, he was at least ok.

I mean Johno Pastings getting a baggy green ffs!

It's alright. Once you come to terms with Vic plodders getting games ahead of the best from WA. You'll be able to sleep easier

Could be worse they could have given Ahmed a gig too!

Scott Henry says hi

Hey he is bad, but both state sides have had some rubbish players lol!

Seriously, how Shane Watson continually gets a game baffles me. He is seriously over-rated and has never made runs in a pressure situation. Shaun Marsh should be batting at number 3. He has a very good one-day record and we need another batter.

So will Watto get the arse today? Guess I'll know if the Bigfooty servers crash due to the mass celebration

 

[CheekyMonkey]

he will score 73 off 81 (2 dropped catches and a close LBW not given) and then proceed to piss everyone off with low scores in the remaining matches

Unfortunately by the sounds of it they are playing Faulkner for Cummins thus the hack somehow jags another game!

Don't you dare forget he would review the LBW given which would hit halfway up middle stump!

Well considering the biggest ODI tourney is the world cup and he avg 50 at world cups i would say in the past he has scored some vital runs, And the 2nd best tourney in ODI is the ICC champions trophy and he avg 41 i would say he has scored vital runs there too. But i understand most people hear just prefer the bag him and say he has never scored runs.

Yeah remind me what year it is again...it isn't 2011 still mate. He has barely scored a run a 3 years! He was good, now he is an absolute donkey that can't hit the ball!

What difference does it matter what year it was, the guy was saying he has never scored runs at pressure situation and is overrated, so i was just pointing out has has a good record for big tourneys.

Bank to the bank?

Yes in 2011. He doesn't now, he hasn't for some time. The moment we stop carrying Watson the better. The worst thing that could happen is for him to slog a few runs today, that frankly scares the living daylights out of me.

The boundaries had grass (i.e banks) on both ends. Thats where he was deposited lol!

Still grammatically incorrect. Which is the most important kind of incorrect.

Yes I know, but thats what the photo was saying. Gosh he was hopeless McGain! Useless!

I would have thought the worst thing would be for Watson to fail and the Australians to lose. But okay.

I for one hope Watson smashes it today, if he can regain his form he can still have a major impact on this World Cup.

Sadly not everyone can be like Warner and play 56 games and Avg 32 but people talk like you are one of the best, and no one ever questions your spot in the side no matter how you go, Geez even Alastair Cook has a better ODI record than him.

We won't lose period. Yeah watch him hit runs then fail against the good sides as he has been doing all year! Bad signs were in the ODI series before the WC where he could barely get a run when India were bowling party pies
