They will probably put him back in the test side now, one hopes not

Agree, handy first class cricketer with not enough weapons to make it as a consistent test match batsmen

All personal scores against the Redbacks should be divided by 4. To make it fair.

And then halved again when made on AO

Include bowlers in that Siddle doesnt look like getting a wicket but managed 5/30 against the redbacks. Cowan with 4 centuries this season is impressive but I'd like to see Burns from Queensland given a shot with Ashes next year in mind.

Urgh ! Piss off Cowan !

doesnt matter who is scoring them cos we are letting them set a target

Dunk looks like a bit of a downy eh

Just tuned in to watch Raph play one of the worse innings i have ever seen. It must be an anxiety thing as he is a much better player than that.

We've been rolled on day 4 twice, can we make it a hatrick?

Let's not forget the past couple of weeks. Raphael has replaced a bloke that was killed in the team's last start. He also not only has to deal with that, Hilfenhaus nailed him in his first ever Shield match on the scone and to top things off the late Phillip Hughes picked him up off the turf after being knocked out by James Pattinson in his 2nd game.

I agree not a good game but there are major external factors here. Hilfy has played test cricket, Raphael had to work his arse off until his mid 20's to get a chance.

was that the game he came back at number 8 or 9 and made a tricky 30 to get us home with a one wicket to spare?

feel sorry for them now.

4 down for 5 runs...

Yes. He spent the night in hospital then resumed and hit the winning runs.

5/17................ouch

Kick us out of shield cricket. It's just embarrassing.

Or bring in the ACT & NT.

Dear I say the sack chuck comments will start to appear!

Obviously the players arent hearing the message from the coaching staff by our 2nd innings failures

FFS Redbacks

Sitting 3rd at the start of the round, if I could kick something, it would be your teeth

Only thanks to BP - could easily have been sitting last as well

Should be thankful the game we lost to NSW we were able to bowl them out quickly in the 1st innings and score quickly - gained 2.43 BP which kept us from being bottom.

Well maybe all the haters should just FO out of this thread and not comment, had enough of so called supporters continually bagging their own.

To be fair it's tough to remain upbeat and confident being a Redbacks supporter when the continually promise so much, give glimmer of hope and then capitulate and crash back to Earth time and time again.

Comments posted on here aren't about putting the boot it, they are more a reflection of the absolute frustration and disappointment.
