As I said previously our depth is enviable. Marsh should end up superior to a large % of players already playing at test level.

I'd say out of that lot Marsh, Pomersbach, D.Hussey and Hilfenhaus have a chance to do well at test level.

Hodge is old and crap = VAUGHAN

Voges is nothing special = BELL

Watson gets injured too often to be considered = FREDDIE

Hopes is a bits and pieces player who isn't good enough with bat or ball for test cricket = COLLINGWOOD

Ronchi is a front foot slogger with a poor technique = for a keeper he does OK with the bat

Katich struggles against high class fast bowling = 99% of players to have played the game

Tait is a wild maverick who has no idea where the ball is going, = HARMISON

White is a slogger with a pretty poor defensive technique. = OK, you got me there.

You just don't get NSR, do you?

Surely that non-sarcasm recognition was pure gold?

Hodge is old and crap = VAUGHAN...But Vaughan already has more than 10 test hundreds.

Voges is nothing special = BELL. But Bell is 3 years younger than Voges and has already played 40 tests. Add to that, Bell actually DOES look special. He just needs to stop getting out like a tw*t.

Watson gets injured too often to be considered = FREDDIE. But when Flintoff plays, he is 10 times better than Watson.

Hopes is a bits and pieces player who isn't good enough with bat or ball for test cricket = COLLINGWOOD. I doubt very much that James Hopes will ever score a test double century. In fact I doubt he will ever play a test. Ever.

Ronchi is a front foot slogger with a poor technique = for a keeper he does OK with the bat. Ok yeah that's true. But he's a step down again from Haddin just as Haddin is a step down from Gilchrist.

Katich struggles against high class fast bowling = 99% of players to have played the game. But they don't look like a rabbit in the headlights as much as Katich does.

Tait is a wild maverick who has no idea where the ball is going, = HARMISON. And he's been dropped from the England team. He can at least claim to habe been world class for a short period of time.

White is a slogger with a pretty poor defensive technique. = OK, you got me there.

Nope,not yet.He will probably get into the ODI side first,assuming he stays away from pubs on nights before the game.
