Hil-fen-haus is a Tas-sy Man
Hit him for 4 if you &%-$#ing Can!
Try to hit a 6
And he'll knock over your sticks!
Its Ben Hilf-en-haus!!!

Do you think it would be a good idea for the Australian selectors to sack Ponting now and give captaincy to Clarke. (Keeping Ponting in the team) |

I wouldn't drop Ponting, a few bad series doesn't make a bad batsman. Maybe he's not the greatest captain, but he's not terrible. Australia have been spoiled by the likes of Steve Waugh and Mark Taylor.
What would you like to see the Australian team as, in batting order, for the 2009 ashes, and then the World Cup? |

Hussey will be old!
37?
Decent teams though.
If Australia can find another really decent spinner, then I think they'll continue to be the powerhouse of international cricket.

yeah hussey will be old but there's talk that he could continue playing on into his 40's and i believe that he probably could and would.

Playing into his 40's??
What makes him any better than other players who don't play into their 40's?

clarke for vc, are you kidding me!, the aussies are already complacent enough,
bollinger deserves his spot, should get a crack over most guys for tests, (injuries providing it)
bracken, hilfenhaus, hopes etc. will never make tests (im not being biased tom!, i put bracken in there) simple on their lack of pure wicket taking ability.
haddin shouldnt open the batting in tests,
they wont come up with a decent spinner for a while,
nathan brain maybe (but he's our age, and davo carted him for four) haha,
but no-one has the skill at the moment
there aren't many around globally

lol, not as hilarious as his face when davo smacked him inside out over cover for a one bounce four (he was number 11 and received a standing ovation for his 9 not out) haha
priceless davo moments
i think he received about 4 standing ovations in the rep season

Yea sorry Hilfy doesnt have the record for one of the highest wicket tallies in a Pura Cup season  He was just overbowled that season and struggled a bit last season, he will be back however. |
