D Hussey very unlucky

[rod_rooster]

Yep, D Hussey extremelly unlucky to miss out on the Test squad. Surely he's next in line after the lot selected. Beau Casson getting picked is interesting.

[the joker]

Unlucky for what!!! he made the one day squad and you pick Katich before him in the test team every time

[Dogwatcher]

Casson's performance in the Shield final would have clinched his spot.
Plus he plays for NSW

Andrew Hilditch said that Dan cullen Propably would have went but was still unavailable with his finger injury. but it turns out casson leaving WA was the right decision for him

Yep, that would be it. Best part about taking Katich is he could bat in any spot if needed.

how bout pi$$ off hilfenhaus in favour of d huss?
why do we need 7 bowlers?

and what about Shaun Marsh?

Couldn't agree more.....

DAVID HUSSEY should have been selected for the Test Squad and i am very disappointed that he wasn't.

What the hell does this guy have to do to get a Test debut?

[sasquatch]

I reckon Cam White's fairly lucky too...

[hearts on fire]

OMG... i didn't even notice he got picked!

What is wrong with Cricket Australia? are they out of their mind!

CAMERON WHITE.... hahahahaha.... biggest joke in Australian cricket....

You forgetting about the Redbacks i see.

[Booney]

Redbacks...REDBACKS? I cant see any there....

Casson would be 4th choice spinner in that test squad after MacGill, Symonds and M Clarke. He didn't even bowl in Victoria's 1st innings in the Pura Cup final. Are there no net bowlers available in the Windies?

White would be 4th choice spinner in the one day squad after Symonds, Clarke and D Hussey. How many all rounders do you need in one team?

youv been reading the papers too much heater with that theory. If it takes you a season from bowling in the nets for a motnh you need a hard look at yourself

I'm happy to see Hilfenhaus given a shot - I'd pick him over Tait or Johnson any time.
I do agree D Hussey and Katich should be in.

Well I saw it very clearly on a day at Parkinson oval against Kensington after he returned that he had lost a serious amount of confidence

[matt]

Anyone called Beau should not be withinn a postcode of the Australian test side.

[sasquatch]

I read on Baggygreen that Cam White was replacing Brad Hogg in the squad...
Does that mean he's going to bowl?
I'd rather see WATTO...
