A nice bit on cricinfo on Mark Cosgrove.
"One of the most consistent scorers in Australian domestic cricket over the past few years, Mark Cosgrove would have loved nothing more than to be judged on his weight of runs, not his weight. But the modern cricket landscape focuses so heavily on fitness that Cosgrove never added to the three one-day internationals he played in 2006. By then, he was already a big man with an even larger reputation."

Piyush Chawla, Romesh Powar (a couple of good tubby Indian spinners). Saurabh Tiwary has put on more than a few pounds lately too.

Teaboy - are we talking Mars bar or runner? Both funny. But prefer the Brandes one

The runner one. Delivered with typical Aussie bluntness.

Solid top 5. As much as I'd love Boon in for his beer drinking capabilities I think this lot take the biscuit. And buffet.
Do we go for a balanced side or add lots of spinning all-rounders. Leverock, Blackwell, Botham, Samit, Ormond? Do we need more quicks? Who is keeping?
