Thats not what I want to hear Ink! give me late 30s in the sweltering WA sun. I do hope it is a competitive series though. I think it will be

The longer we bat these first 2 tests the better. Don't care if we go at 2-3 an over. Keep the Poms out in the heat as long as possible, particularly if they front load the series by playing both Archer and Wood from the get go.

Happy Ashes all. I can't remember being this excited for a series or maybe its just years of conditioning by the Tigers have just taught me to forget the previous years! Predicting 3-1 Australia. Steve Smith top run scorer and man of the series. England worries me if they can keep their bowlers...

Perth must be throwing serious money at Liam Henry to get him over there

Maybe thats part of the attraction? Anonymity, less pressure, bucketloads of cash and seeing the world. Can see why players would be tempted

Busted. Can't seem to stay on the field for longer than a couple of games at a time. Boland has replaced Cummins and Doggett will likely replace Hazlewood. Losing one is ok. Losing both levels the playing field a bit imo

Think much of our fortunes in the medium term depend on Green getting close to his ceiling

Agree Steve. This is probably the best side. I like Weatherald but not sure he has done enough. Think Green and Marnus would probably swap though. Having both Webster and Green either allows Starc and Hazlewood to go harder in shorter bursts or increases their chances of playing maximum tests...

Green on 70* Say what you want about selectors but the guys they pick come back to shield and are pretty consistently the best players

Konstas wont be playing international cricket again until he closes that highway between bat and pad...

Little bit too much nuance in that one Poopy

Neser can do everything Sean Abbott can do and more

lies, damn lies and statistics

Eels talent scout getting a clip around the ears atm missing Galvin and Godinet

Benji's interpersonal skills and leadership have never been in question. Its the Xs and Os coaching where there are doubts. Luckily the latter is much easier to teach than the former.

Can't really see how this can be policed really. How does the NRL prove what is tampering and what is just analysis as part of their jobs?

Mason should be the 14 in cup imo. I'm not ready to draw a line through him yet. His confidence seemed shot last year and that's as much an issue around how he was managed/coached last year. He probably should not have been anywhere near the NRL side. He did initially hold his own at NRL...

Good player but i think with the current balance in our roster he would be a luxury. I think our priority with the remaining funds has to be an out and out first grade prop

might not be a superstar but based on the last few tests he is a signficant upgrade on Seyfarth, Sukkar and Sione Fainu (as a backrower).

Slightly different case but haven't we just done it again for Attard? Really hope there are some clauses in there.
