Brad Hodge - Just STFU!

[Rik E Boy]

he is not the first and most certainly wont be the last Australian cricket that has been starved of opportunities.
Darren Lehman was dominating for SA long before he got to the big league, also andy bichel was dominating for Queensland and could only manage to be 12 or 13 man alot of the time because of the amazing bowlers in his time, fair enough that the batting line up is struggling at the moment but picking hodge in my oppinion would only be a quick fix, not good for us in the long run taking his age in to consideration, i say out with the old in with the new

Yeah but in Bichs and Boof's day we actualy had a side.

I say he won't be. I think the story of why is well known to those within first class circles in this country......

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR MOTM BRAD, AND WINNING A RYOBI TOOL KIT
Excellent Im delighted that its a tool kit, I think its a sweet victory, interesting game, to come way with some runs was slightly amusing, I didnt think I would get any today

Yeah I was sick all last night, went to Dvaid Jones with my wife this morning to have a look at some kids xmas presents, had to dash off to the David Jones toilet and was sick so I went home and had a sleep, woke up at 12-45'' jumpED in my car'' and came to the ground, my wife didnt think I would make any runs, so at least I proved she was wrong which was good ..........
......
YOUR FIRST CENTURY OF THE SEASON, YOUR CERTAINLY NOT SHOWING ANY SIGNS OF SLOWING DOWN

[Hodge laughs hahahaha]

Well look I mean if its a serious question off course people think about selections and things like that, you wouldnt be human if you didnt want to play cricket at the highest level and I certainly want to, and obviously Im trying to get in that side, yeah I can hide from certain aspects and say that I dont want to be involved but the truth hard facts that they are is that I do, so if I keep playing well and perFORMing well then we will have to see down the line

What's your point mal? I saw his interview as he left the playing arena after his innings and add this one in I thought he handled himself beautifully, are you saying that he's settled down a bit?

I cannot understand why someone has not come out and said what is pretty common knowledge about Hodge. He is allegedly a pretty ordinary bloke, not well regarded within the Aussie side and our skipper does not get on well with him. Our skip has obviously a lot of say about selection, so you will not see Hodge whilst the Punter is there.

Canberra boy? I know he played for the Comets but could be NSW born. One of us has been bowled by that particular wrong un.

Terrible.
Knew that was coming REB

[Media Park]

Bump.

After his last call about Baggy Greens being given away, and about the thousands of runs he made and got constantly ignored...

[Rik E Boy]

Terrible.

Come on. It wasn't that bad.

Also in the 30 man squad for the 2011 world cup. cant wait until he starts moaning about missing out on the final 15 man squad.

I read an interesting article in the sportsbeat the other day where Hodge ridiculed the Aussie Selectors after dropping Mitchell Johnson after the 1st test in Brisbane and the picking him again 2 matched later in Perth without playing a game and not having any form at all.

He also mentioned about the selections of our spinners, with Doherty averaging 48 in Shield cricket and Micheal Beer averaging 40 and both being selected to be our frontline spinners. Hodge said he himself averages 41 as a part time spinner.

He also went into bat for Dave Hussey, who has a very good First class average, is a consistant performer at state level and Hodge believes the selectors should be picking him on a consistant basis.

I enjoyed reading Hodge speak his mind on things cause he's pretty much on the mark with it and good on him for doing it. He's only really saying what every other player is thinking IMO.
