I tink they're token if they don't play him, gotta go with someone coming off a score.

Dougall looks well out of his depth at the moment and Klinger must bat 3.

[Jim05]

Thats the side i would go with aswell Bloods.
Dougall looks way out of his depth.
Dont mind Klinger opening though, still think he is our best opener

Why not give Thornton a crack, he's making runs. Similar to Dougall in that he is in form. If he can't make runs, then he isn't ready. Cannot use form as an excuse.
Harris-Klinger-Ferguson-Cooper is a solid line if Ferg can crack it and make some runs.
I would rather see Crossy bat above Christian, but I know it won't happen.
George-Haberfield-Christian isn't a terrible seam attack either.

[CoverKing]

Can't nderstand why people are moving copper down the order in their sides

Agree CK, I would swap Cooper and Ferg

[Lightning McQueen]

Ferg scares me at number 3.

[Jim05]

Ferg scares me at number 3.

Yep 2 spots to high.
Cooper has to bat above him

[bloods08]

West End Redbacks: Michael Klinger (c), Daniel Harris, Callum Ferguson, Tom Cooper, Ben Dougall, Daniel Christian, Adam Crosthwaite (wk), Aaron O'Brien, Cullen Bailey, Jake Haberfield, Peter George, Joe Mennie (12th), Tom Thornton

Tad harsh.
Cant remember the last time a team on paper won a game

[Coach Bombay]

my office overlooks adelaide oval, I can tell you that there is no reason that they cant start playing. Shouldnt be too long, barely rained this afternoon

By office, i mean workspace. The names arent even in the scoreboard yet, but there are people walking around North Tce without umbrellas. I want some cricket DAMMIT

[bloods08]

Toss finally done and in a strange move, Klinger has won the toss and will bat first. Thought it would be the perfect afternoon to have a bowl first.

[Coach Bombay]

The names are going in the scoreboard
Klinger 3
Thornton 4
Cooper 5
Ferguson 6

Binocolurs arent too good though
