Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3690472, member: 9052"] Yeah definitely would've been better to get the normal middle order treatment and start down at 5 or 6. Given Marsh's form and the eventual return of Green this series would've been a great opportunity to play him at 6 as that position won't need an all rounder when Green is back. Issue moving forward is that Head looks every bit a number 5... counter attacking middle order bat that can score quickly under pretty much all scenarios... there's no real need to move him up the order like what would normally happen. Green will come back as the long term number 4... and he's much better suited up the order than down at 6 And Marnus is the number 3 who the selectors will be hoping gets back to some sort of form and be a mainstay at the spot. That really only leaves opener or 6 for McSweeney moving forward and even for the longer term with Marnus, Head and Green not really leaving the team over the next 5 years if their form holds. Maybe Marnus gets moved to open and a spot opens for McSweeney at 3, but is that much of an improvement on opener? 3's are basically openers nowadays. [/QUOTE]
