The Sheffield pura Shield cup final is fast approaching.
Well not fast, its approaching about a day at a time.
I will need to find myself a couch that sits in front of a foxtel TV in order to see any of it.
The thought that Victoria, a proud and beautiful state, could lose to NSWales, a vicious pack of heathens, sickens me.
Victoria, gentleman that they are, have decided to use the players that have been available all year.
NSWales, vile scum that they are, have selected a bunch of ring ins.
I suggest they leave them out, last time I saw Lee And Clark bowl for their state they looked ordinary.
But they have nothing on our Bryce.
There is some contention over whom shall be picked, out of Quiney and Mash.
Even though I think Quiney is the better batsmen, Mash can dig himself into the crease and hold on, where Quiney is more likely to play the flashy innings.
But we have a middle order full of people who can play the flashy innings. Also the few times I have seen Quiney play spinners, it has never been that impressive to me.
With the bowlers according to the dailies the last place is out of Dirty Dirk and Clinton Mckay.
Sure I am biased by the fact Dirty Dirk is involved, but he is the logical choice out of these two.
Clinton has a very good recent record, looks in decent form, and is taking wickets.
Dirty Dirk is an angry growling warrior who would stab you in the eye with a pen to get your wicket.
For a Final I know who’d I prefer.
I’ve looked over NSWales side quickly and I have seen some problems for them.
Their bowlers have not taken a lot of wickets for them this year, and a few of their batsmen haven’t made many runs for them either.
There are some new names in there, Clark, Clarke, Bracken and Lee to name a few, but they only sound impressive if you say them out loud.
I suggest you don’t do that.
Instead I suggest you artificially find some reason to think we can win, like Bryce is a better bloke than Stuey, or Brett Lee will disrupt the team with his constant singing in Hindi.

Let's face it. Hodgy can't score runs againt top bowling. Ronnie Macdonald is good for a 60 in one innings, and the side plays better when Cam White is injured. Did I read in the paper where they called Cam White a 'spin option'? Since when? I thought he bowled slow medium seam up...
And what's the Vics best opening partnership this year? -12? It doesn't matter who opens the batting, Hodgy will be in three overs from the start, and he'll snick one to the slips since he's lousy outside off stump.
At least one of the quicks will break down in the first innings (Harwood, anyone?). Let's face it, Bryce McGain is going to hasve to get 12 wickets and Hussey's going to have to get a triple century. Since both those things are inevitable, I think the Bushrangers have it in the bag.
