Batting group was poor against the Duke balls. Individuals had moments after Christmas but didn't really nail too many games and opportunities given to them by our bowlers.
Carey must bat higher. Has the opportunity to play at Australian Level, can't have him being wasted down at 7,stuck batting with tail most games. Must bat in top 6 and give him every chance to perform. Wade and Neville bat 5 and he's a better bat then Wade.

granted that i think carey is a much better batting option than Manou, however, if i recall correctly we went from 3rd the season to dead last with Manou trying to bat himself at 1,2 or 3 the following year ina bid to get a gig to the 2009 ashes. Hartley has still been able to make a shite load of runs from 7. whilst it would be great to see carey don the baggy green, he must bat where he fits in for the team and not in a position purely based on a bid to get him thrust into the Australian side

Carey is one of Grade Crickets best opening batsmen. I'm sure his position at 7 is solely based on workload and not ability. Fair enough this season, why he finds his feet, batting at 7 is fine. But next season he deserves a promotion up the order, if it doesn't work, you lower him back down the order.
Hartley will be one of the best keepers never to have played for Australia, he batted at 7 and never got a gig.

Agree that he's not deserving of a Test cap yet (Even if they have gifted out a few to others in recent times) but the duck in the 1st innings was the result of a SHITHOUSE LBW decision from a ball that spun about 2 feet out of the footmarks so pretty hard to be critical i would have thought.

That's the 2nd alcohol related incident in 12 months for him I think....

Hartley has been the best gloveman in Australia for some time. Very much in the mould of a Steve Rixon, quality keeper and gritty bat (Hartley is a better bat though). Never had the profile of Brad Haddin, but could've ended up with an Ian Healy batting average and was always a far,far superior gloveman than Haddin.
