The Cricket Thread (part 10) - from Feb 2025

@Lawry

The changes I suggested were made. Maybe a test or two late. SK, Webster. I wasn’t the only one wanting change after Perth. That first test was really poor.

So off the back of this comment I thought it was worth revisiting your changes proposed post Perth. Yes you weren’t the only one. I’m sure I called for Uzzie to go - but I do have to laugh at most of these calls only 10 weeks later.

Must have missed when Marnus was dropped

@Lawry

Fark off Marnus you goose. Please drop this big mouthed fool

What is it - 3 test tons for Smith since you wanted him dropped. Fortunately this suggestion wasn’t adhered to! You were right on the other calls

@Lawry

Inglis must play in Adelaide - I’d also drop marsh or smith also. Australian cricket in crisis

Lucky Cummins held his spot to win MoM in Melbourne

@Lawry

When we get bowled out for 108 tomorrow then the coach should resign. Marnus must be dropped and I’d consider dropping Pat for Adelaide and get him on some fitness program- he’s a month behind where he needs to be

This one might be my favourite. Head, Uzzie and Smith . So much egg. Amazing what backing players who are proven performers can actually do.

Please don’t tell me the Lotto numbers for Saturday night

@Lawry

Marnus needs to be dropped

Head needs to be put on notice - perform more consistently

Uzi/Smith to retire end of series but earlier if they keep up the poor form
