another injury for watto

Postby the joker » Thu Jan 24, 2008 6:59 pm

Another injury to Shane Watson added to Queensland's pain as James Hopes could not drag them out of their deep hole and Tasmania cruised to a nine-wicket win in Hobart. The Tigers were left with a chase of only 88 and reached their target easily thanks to a George Bailey half-century.

The injury-prone Watson was halfway through bowling his third over when he left the field. Although he completed 25 overs in Tasmania's first innings, Watson had only been back bowling in the Pura Cup for two matches after initially returning from his latest hamstring injury as a batsman only

Nobody has done this many muscles in such a short period since Phil Gallagher's career ran into a massive brick wall between games 287 and 292.

I agree (and said as much yesterday in another thread).

Through trying to do his job as best he can to get his name up in front of the Australian selectors once more.

Can't pan a bloke for trying too hard.

No point in trying to impress the selectors, when there is no chance of being selected in the first place. Need to be fit and in form to be looked at.
As long as he keeps trying to bowl, and as long as he keeps breaking down doing such, he hasn't got a hope in hell.
If his batting had come on this Summer, then he may push for a spot, but he'd have Hodge, Hussey, Katich, Rodgers just for starters to overtake first....
IMO, he knows his body isn't up to bowling so why try?

Concentrate on the batting and take up bowling off breaks...

You can when it is clear that bowling is causing him to injure himself on a very regular basis and he isn't any good at it anyway. Surely it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out that he has absolutely no future as a bowler given both of these factors.

If he keeps trying to bowl and keeps getting injured as a result he's only got himself to blame.

You can't blame a young man for wanting to bowl. But yes, his body is trying to tell him something. Unfortunately for Watto, this has happened about 10 years too early.

Nope, you can't blame him for wanting to bowl. There are things i'd like to do but i refrain from as i know what the consequesnces are. Time for Watto to accept that it is in his own best interests to give the bowling away. Who knows how far his batting could develop if he was able to play a whole season.
