He did, as nightwatchman v Indians in Perth, but, like Mo, he was picked to take wickets, which he was sh!t at. 4 wkts at 79 in 4 Tests does not a bowler make.Big Dog wrote:Didn't Mann score a Test ton?

Still...anyone that gets a test ton can hardly be called 'the worst'skully wrote:He did, as nightwatchman v Indians in Perth, but, like Mo, he was picked to take wickets, which he was sh!t at.Big Dog wrote:Didn't Mann score a Test ton?
Re: Worst Wozzie cricketer to play for Australia?
Meh, I'm just chuckin' names out there. Mann was typical of the tosh that got selected to play for Aus in the absence of the WSC players.
Sam Gannon is another of RD's favorites from the era.

Of course the undisputed leader would have to be Chris Matthews

To quote John Arlott (but less wittily as there's only one in this case):
Skully, you're just demonstrating yet another case of man's inhumanity to Mann.

Meulemann, if you look at the stats. But you'd be a prick to go on one Test.
So ... Sam Gannon or Craig Serjeant.

Serjeant made a stirling 81 on debut at Lords and a 124 in a big stand with Woody (251 after coming to the wicket at 3-22) against a full strength Windies to win a Test in the WSC era in the Caribbean. We chased down 362 in the 4th innings to win that match by 3 wkts.
I'd still go with Wally Edwards.

Serjeant was a bigger disappointment. The original Phil Hughes.
