Tim Paine broke his thumb (hasn't specified what side) during the fifth test and Peter Siddle also injured a hip flexor bowling on the first morning.
Siddle withdrawn from the BBL to concentrate on red ball cricket, cheers.
Honestly, if all of our bowlers are fit, is he in the best 4 or 5 on Aussie decks?
Not in my top 4 or 5 on Australian decks. If he is though then we are going to be an average side for a while.
Starc, Pattinson, Hazelwood, Cummins, J.Richardson. Siddle concentrating on Getting into the Victorian side maybe?
Looking forward to seeing Jhye Richardson back, he's set to play in the Marsh cup. And for Siddle to play one of Tremain, Boland, Pattinson or Holland will miss out or they play 5 bowlers again like they did alot last season.

I can't believe that Tremain gets wickets, I'd carve him up and I'm old and past it.

We always have that perception of some bowlers we see don't we (I thought similar about Scott Boland) but 45, 51, 42 and 36 wickets in his last four seasons respectively shows he's a very good SS bowler.
I bet Ponting got in his ear. I wouldn't have him anywhere near tactical decisions like that. He has a history of poor decisions and underestimating the opponent.
