Dont we play West Indies next?

[Rushby Hinds]

the best leg spinner in the land by far is playing for Victoria.

And no, I don't meen Cam White.


Has anyone else seen McGain bowl?

Yep, Bryce McGain is VERY good. Second best spinner in the country behind MacGill.

We are a bit short on the spin front at the minute. White isn't good enough. Hauritz isn't good enough. Casson isn't good enough. Cullen and Bailey aren't good enough yet. Heal not good enough. Who is Queenslands spinner? Is it Nye?

magill gets the nod for me if he is fit you dont take 200 test wickets by being a dud and he knows his time is now ..he has lived in the great man warnies shadow for a long time now its his time to shine ..by the way i seem to recall a bloke by the name of bob (duthcy )holland playing test cricket at 40 so why can stu magill not go on for that long he has spent plenty of time waiting 4 his turn + there is no one who even comes close to him at the moment !! (when fit)

MacGill would be first choice if fit. First choice for any country in the world probably.

With Symonds off-spin becoming more and more effective,I would pick Noffke giving us three quicks,Noffke as a fouth and Symonds the spinner,Clarke to chip in every now and then.This would allow a little less pressure to be on Haddin as he could bat 7 or 8 and not have the expectations on him that Gilchrist has left in his wake.

The attack looks light on. You need to take 20 wickets to win a test match remember. Give Bollinger a gig.

Haddin would not bat below Noffke.

I do feel a bit for Hogg having to bowl to the best players of spin in the world. I reckon you will find that Warnes Ave against the Indians may be pretty high. If he had the Poms or SAF to bowl to, things may have been different.

no, i disagree, Hogg was hardly getting any spin, and on come Symonds, a part-time spinner and he gets more spin and better figures. Now you can't tell me the great man Shane Warne would have had a high average, thats just crap.....

Warnes Ave against India is 47 and MacGill has over 50.

Thats a good team boon, the reasoning behind noffke is sound.
