Brett Geeves latest boomer of an article. Langer throwing Renshaw under a bus to replace him with Shaun Marsh:

I think if Renshaw is dropped for Shaun Marsh I'll be barracking for the poms.

So we replace a promising 22 year old who has yet to really fail in a Test, with a Dinosaur who occasionally performs in a Test.
I'll get back to you.

Nah, Langer is right, side needs Shaun, oh and Mitch too, side definitely needs more Marshes. Oh, and Bancroft, he's a Westralian too isn't he?????

Enjoy Geeves stuff but reckon this one has some slight sour grapes in it from Geeves. Don't think Langer is out of line in what he said. Renshaw needs runs, been in poor shield form. Most good players have been dropped at some stage, often multiple times. Throwing under the bus is a massive exaggeration. Hopefully Renshaw isn't gifted the next 5 tests on the basis he is young and potentially the future.

You really think the Marsh's should come back in? Its clearly driven by bias from Langer.
 
Little talk I heard from someone I think would be in the know.

Nevill will be Keeper, a debutant to debut - most likely Hilton Cartwright.

Shaun Marsh (god help us) so so close if Renshaw is not up to it. Talk is maybe Khawaja moves up and opens, Smith to 3 or 4 - wherever he wants and Marsh the other spot.

Keeper from SA - Alex Carey too raw.

If there's a debutant it may be Cameron Bancroft.

Yes, he deserves his chance as he was in the test squad for the series in Bangladesh that Australia pulled out of a couple of years ago.
 
Bancroft has to play

No more Faaargin Marshes or Khawaja these guys have had ample opportunities and failed over and again.

ACB can jam their summer of cricket up their arse and can GAGF if they pick Khawaja and Shaun Marsh again imo.


Get Haydos to take Renshaw fishing for a couple of days and give him some counsel and pep talks.

That should fire him up.

Then Bancroft can bat at #3 or at #6
 
It was a hectic morning .. I swear he said Cartwright .. maybe it was Bancroft. Or maybe thats what I wanted to hear haha. But it was Healy I was chatting to.
