injured and Hodge may just be too old. I do think Hodge has been unlucky not to play more for Australia and Hussey has been lucky to play as long as he has (given his extended form slump). He'll probably come out and score 3 tons and prove me wrong :oops:


Well, Mr Cricket is in the first test team and will no doubt carve up the Windies weak attack and make me :oops:

I still feel he has had too long a run at it and it's only the lack of good options that's keeping him in there

But ... time for me to move on and support him and the lads v the Windies

Its funny how that Andrew Hilditch stated that the reason why Stuart Clark wasnt in the squad was because the selectors were trying to pick a side to be ready for the ashes. How is it then that Hussey was named in the squad? Surely he wont be around come the next ashes.
Go you Redbacks!

Won't be around in 12 months :? Reckon he will. Point about Clark is valid though. Pretty sure he'll still be around next November as well. Should be in the side IMHO.
