Worst Players To Get A Baggy Green

[Beeswax]

I'd rather see Henriques, Faulkner or Mitch Marsh as all-rounders before Christian

Anybody before Christian. He called his numerous smashings up of gear/rooms 'isolated incidents'. He's about as thick as they come.

I'd rather we even had John Wayne back before Christian

Easy on Manou here! He wasn't that awful!

Smith definitely though. Tits on a bull are more useful.

Some of the bowlers we picked in the 90s were pretty rank. Paul Wilson anyone?

 

[Beeswax]

Bryce McGain by a long way for the most recent era of Australian cricket.

He had a hard gig though for a debutante. Bowling at SA in his debut test match and at high quality batsmen who were already set. He only got one innings.

Watching him getting smacked around was pretty bloody unpleasant. I never like seeing that done to a first gamer.

Here's an article that might change your guys minds about Bryce McGain slightly. He's a hero in my mind now.

True but half of his deliveries were half trackers and full tosses that any batsman would smash.

Steve Smith is the worst selection i've seen in recent years. He got selected on popularity instead of actual ability

totally agree. Hasn't got stats to back up all the. Hype around him

 

[Michael Geers]

Definately Bryce Mcgain however Rob Quiney is pretty close and Dan Christian should'nt even be considered.

I forgot what test it was in the recent india tour, but he bowled this terrible over where he only managed to land the ball on the deck three times.

Horrible....

So Watson has given away the Vice-captain's job to concentrate on his game or was that to distance himself from a leadership group he does not support.

Wonder who will take his place, slim pickings..

Joe the Camera Man would have voted for Muller - or was it in fact Warnie who Joe took the wrap for over that comment?

 

[Kram81]

I thought it might have been a joke with 'Just blame it Joe' being an old saying in Australia.

 

[Sharkman84]

Andrew McDonald has my vote

 

[Bluey Zarsoff]

Andrew McDonald has my vote

A lot of players have done worse than 9 wickets at 33.3 and 107 runs at 21.4

 

[Ashton Agar]

Peter George

 

[Beeswax]

Andrew McDonald???? He's a good cricketer, who next is going to be thrown up as a 'worst' contender?

Clint McKay? He's only played one test and didn't do much on debut. Ohhhh, he must be shite.

I still think this current Australian side is the worst for many many years.they were made to look good by the crappy English (united nations )side.

Pretty rough on the Australian side. They might not be the best but they played well as a team, far better than what England did. England were pretty poor but I don't think you're giving the Australians enough credit there.

Thank God this is a free country and people can voice their honest opinions,and ai repeat my honest opinion,I think this current Australian team is the worst I have seen in my 85 years,How many of the current side would have made it in 2000-2003,? Clarke and nobody else,Johnson is NOWHERE near consistent enough,when he is "On" he is good...BUT....WHEN HE IS OFF HE IS LOUSY.

Muller I reckon
