Sayers is close to Aussie selection, and Head just made another ton, on what WAS a difficult wicket, with Bird a current test bowler in the line up...you'd think they would be interested... right?


Only a week ago numerous genius's on here were calling for Head to be dropped and have the Captaincy taken off him now he should be in the Test side, makes sense.


I wasn't one of them.... not calling for him to be in the test team, but around the squad maybe....Sayers I would like to see given a go at test level, given the amount of blokes who breakdown, Sayers seems to be "sound" in that area. Mennie has had a break out season....worth a thought!

Trav off to Yorkshire for all formats given that they basically are the English Test side and are still the best club in the county championship so if he makes runs who knows what is going to happen.

Is this for real? Are South Australia actually a chance of making the Shield Final?

Queensland making a mini-comeback too. WA 6/202, already passing QLD score of 147.

Head has boosted his average from about 20 for the season to 38 in the last two knocks. Hopefully he has a big season at Yorkshire and a big Shield season next year and then he can be considered for a baggy green. Good to see him delivering and leading the side with the bat.

Mennie no wickets in this innings, any danger of being dropped if we make the final? ;)

Doesn't mean a thing.
I'm sure he makes decisions to try to prove he knows everything that other people dont
His excuses for not selecting Klinger are embarrassing

Around the grounds:

WA 7/243 v QLD 147 - lead by 96 runs, drinks on Day 2.
VIC 5/176 v NSW 341 - trail by 165 runs.
TAS 7/139 & 91 v SA 346 - trail by 116 runs, drinks on Day 2.

All eyes will be on the WA game over the next two days! Hopefully they can bat most of the remainder of day 2, and build a lead well over 100..
