You must look at why he is not getting picked?

IMO he must be such a d***head that the Aussies selectors thinks its not worth the risk and he will have too greater effect on team harmony! The aussies have always said that wankers are often found out and quickly discarded from the side. This is clearly the case IMO as to why Hodge has not been picked for so long!


That, and as soon as the ball moves around even only slightly, he starts nicking everything!
The reason why he doesnt get a gig, is that good quality international bowlers who can get a bit of movement will take care of him without fuss.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

We still haven't got it right in One Day Cricket. A terrible, negative performance with the bat. Hughes couldn't get out of his own way again, Warner is a one trick pony who doesn't understand the value of the single, Pup was batted too high in his first back after an already slow start by the aforementioned players. The Kat was batted too low and got out playing his unnatural game just when the innings was starting to tick over. Thank Ablett for Steve Smith. That kid is a talent. Not so sure about O'Keefe though who doesn't do all that much with the ball.

regards,

REB

Itsa good thing he has not faced any good quality International bowlers then Coz he averages about 50 In Test Cricket

Its his age, and big mouth that has him playing for the Vics

Speaking of O'Keefe's I wonder if Skull feels any shame about calling for that Hazlewood kid to be picked for the Ashes squad despite having never played a game for NSW? ;)
