Speaking to a state level player the rumours getting around is that it was done via questionnaire because certain players aren't able to express their feelings in team meetings due to a certain other player in the side. The where should one bat in the order 4 or 5 is apparently a hot topic amongst the playing group

Far cry from the old days when opinions were given freely and too bad if you didn't like it/them. Maybe it is symptomatic of the timid cricket we play.

Thinking more about this whole issue, seriously how hard is it to give three dot points on how to improve your individual performance and three dot points on improving the team performance. Jesus any of us who've played any half decent form of cricket could do that in five minutes
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

are you referring to the common denominator is the Captain?


If you go back over all the team incidents over the past few years he is always involved somehow.

From Mickey Arthur's blog:

This decision was about sending a strong message that it is about time all players had some accountability for their actions.

Being late for a meeting, high skinfolds, wearing the wrong attire, back-chat or giving attitude are just some examples of these behavioural issues that have been addressed discretely but continue to happen.

Back in my school days I used to get in trouble for my tie not being straight, should've just given Watto and the guys detention.

Pretty boys think they are above everyone. Watsons old man saying he can make a good living playing 20/20, well let him play in front of cameras for meaningless trophies. Hated Watson since he did that stupid dance dismissing Gayle a few years back, blokes a tosser

I actually hated the primadonna a tad before - that just confirmed it for me. No test century in the last 36 innings, he broke down time and time again, and when fit was picked immediately ahead of others who were more deserving.

Shane Watson's wife Lee has had their baby today.
Will Watson has been welcomed to the world.
He probably would not have played in the test even if selected.

WTF? He bowls one good spell with a white ball and apparently he is reincarnated.
Yes we slag him off and for good reason, he's no good. This spell will be followed by a 0/70 off 8 with 8 wides in one of the next 2 games and order will be restored
