  1. McGrath JE McGrath


    Top order needs to perform much better
     
  2. Colesy BL Hornby

    Our batting didnt hold up at all.
     
  3. Farny AP Farnsworth

    Sorry, I really need to keep up. Are we getting an opportunity to put our strongest Academy team out (i.e. the strongest academy team on the game...)?
     
  4. Eds E Ames

    That is why it needs to be Fittaman replacing Short and not Deane.
     
  5. McGrath JE McGrath

    If Fittman replaces short and the top order go cheaply there is a weak middle order
     
  6. Luffers JRE Luffman

    ...wut?
     
  7. Baxter MJ Deane

    I would argue my point but, yeah whatever.
     
  8. Eds E Ames

    Then play Fittaman at 2 (he is signed up as an opener IIRC) and play McGrath at 4 with Hornby at 5.
     
  9. McGrath JE McGrath

    Probably a better option. McGrath done better down the order for Lions in BS this season
     
  10. Eds E Ames

    After scoring 227 you really cannot justify us needing another all-rounder. We needed 280 to win in the last innings. I would say we bowled well. But the batting definately needs improving.
     
  11. Baxter MJ Deane

    Disagree with moving McGrath,
     
  12. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Fittaman is not an opener.
     
  13. Colesy BL Hornby

    Nah i'll run out of partners at 5.

    Dont move the only player the actually scored runs.
     
  14. Baxter MJ Deane

    NZ brought in an allrounder for an injured batsman because the allrounder had outscored the other options.
    Arguably I've done better than Fittaman this year, plus I add an extra bowling option.
     
  15. Ged GEC King

    You know who's scored runs at an average of over 50 this season batting at no.5 in bs?
     
  16. Baxter MJ Deane

    Dafter?
     
  17. Farny AP Farnsworth

    Dafter!!!
     
  18. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Ye... what I meant was, our "star" players over the course of GBs 2 games have been decent... those who failed today were solid against NSW.

    And looking at their form and GB record definately won't be dropped.
     
  19. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    You'd come in for smith if anyone... tbh Fittamen gunned for the Academy, and you failed. lol.
     
  20. Colesy BL Hornby

    Yeah. I would bring Dafter in if it was my choice.
