The game has been transfered to the MCG to fit all the crowd in.
I have no doubt we will get spanked with that side

QLD look good in the pace department, could be ugly if we bat first

But i'm still happy to play these kids. Come on 2 of them just hit 90's.
I'd rather lose with blooding kids than lose with spuds.

Yes that is spot on.
Good experience to face Cutting, Harris and co on a GABBA seamer.
Still dont know how Dudopolous gets a game though

So he's a bowler then? Is he an import or from SA originally?

Agreed. Dropthelotofus has had a couple of good limited overs efforts, but has shown nothing in the longer formats to be there.
But hey, in this commercial world, @TheoDrop is an icon...

He's only had one match, where he got to bat and bowl once. Big on giving chances?

QL need maximum points
What else can we expect but a Gabba minefield
WA 34
30 QL
30 TA
30 VI
TA V WA
VI V NS
QL V SA
A QL outright = a finals spot with 36 points
Ryan Harris and Theo will do battle again
A few seasons ago when Rhino was a redback and Theo was a sandgroper they dueled
I wuz in the Chappell stand
Rhino pitched short to Theo
Theo rocked back and pulled
The ball sailed into the Chappell stand in a flash
It thundered into a seat and broke a plastic part of it
This seat bit richoched and spun around in the air
I reached out and caught the projectile
I have kept it , in case Theo became the first Golden Greek to play for Australia

Too late, Gillespie became that a few years ago. Apparently his mother's Greek.
However, no Australian cricketer has yet admitted to going Greek, so that option's still out there...

I thought Dizzy was the first Aboriginal.
He may have forever the first Greek-Aboriginal in that case.

Definitely Aboriginal.
Read somewhere Greek too, which surprised me.
