Interesting as they are both similiar type players who are great for their state and both have fiery red hair!

Who would you prefer if you could pick either?

Andrew McDonald is more your bowling all rounder whilst Dom Thornely is more your batting all rounder. Hard one but I reckon I would just pick Thornely because he can make an awesome score and take some pretty handy wickets.
I know Andrew McDonald. He went to the same school as me, but was 2 grades lower than me.

Dom struggles against the short ball and it is a proven weakness and now the other states have picked up on it and he has been struggling, although last night he scored a few he hardly faced Tait who is S.A's only strike bowler.

Murray High represent.

Two vastly different players, would be like saying Brian Lara vs Glenn McGrath.
 
Re: Andrew Mcdonald or Domnic Thornely?

I would have said Dom 2 years ago but last year Dom proved he cant play under pressure. The only runs he scored was when we were going great guns. He's done OK under pressure this year but really he's not the player he used to be.

I'd take Andrew McDonald in the Shield and Thornley in the Ford Ranger Cup and Twenty20 competitions.

Thornley has the ability to win games and can be very explosive with the bat whereas McDonald is a better bowler and is very consistent with both sides of his game making him a perfect 4-day all rounder.
