Strikers vs Melbourne stars

[OnSong]

Crossthwaite is an embarrassment to himself and the strikers. How about shut up and make a run!

Don't mind players chirping on the field but back it up for christ's sake, once at least.

At least (almost any other keeper in Aust) wouldn't have been an embarassment with his antics and he couldn't have done any worse with the bat than Crossthwaite.

I believe he got right into Owais Shah as well, when Shah pulverised us earlier this year.

Best one was when he was chirping with Shah. Clearly said "how did you get a contract mate, your sh*t" Ummmm Adam, you dont even have a state contract and Shah has played for his country????

[wycbloods]

That one with Shah was terrible. Last night's with Warne and Wade was just . Wade was always going to have the last laugh he took his spot in the bushranger's squad didn't he?

I think we now realise how good we had it with Manou.

He would be better served sliced thinly and deep-fried.
He would be better served boiled, diced and covered in cream/vinegar with some chives and bacon.
He would be better served wrapped in foil, baked, then cut open with chilli con-carne, cheese and sour cream put on top.

A spud of the highest order.
There is no doubt.

I would rather Lleyton Hewitt play as a keeper/batsman over Manou.

but the argument is cross v manpoo

Can you compare spuds with spuds?
I don't think we are better off but to say we are worse off is almost blasphemy.

Was clearly the best gloveman in the country (and probably still is) and had been batting pretty well over the last 5 years. Was treated very harshly imo.

10x the player Ludeman or Crosthwaite are and will ever be.

Better than anything we have now.

I think you will find his average would have been pretty close to (or over) 35 in the last 5 seasons. Pretty good for a keeper imo.

Not everyone can be like Gilchrist.

[OnSong]

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say his glovework was over-rated, his decision-making at times was atrocious and his batting, well, no comment.
AOB has the same batting average and he is considered a poor man's bowling all-rounder.

[mighty_tiger_79]

i would say manou is better then crossthwaite

Probably, but how "good" we had it is taking it one step too far, surely.

[mighty_tiger_79]

well i would have to agree with you on that OS

[Media Park]

AOB is awesome

Edited for accuracy. Love the way this guy plays.

And our keepers have done so well so far this year. Neither deserve their spot in the team
