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.
