The Australian selectors have spoken

They said <p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">"We want the Krab.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">We enjoy watching him scuttle around the crease.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">We like his nudging.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">His unwashed demeanour.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">He 3 day stubble.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">And his can do attitude.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Ashley Noffke can go please himself."
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Brad Hodge obviously wont play a test match on this tour.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Once Clarke comes back he will be sent back to SRK.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">So what message are they sending to Noffke, we hear you liked the rum on your last tour here, fancy another round.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">OK, so you want Katich in the side, we get that, but surely giving Noffke a run, even as a batsman, is a better go than playing Hodge.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Hell, playing anyone but Shane Watson is better than Hodge.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Now us Australians must endure Simon Katich again.
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Clarkey, you now can never leave this woman, not even if Michael Slater sleeps with her.
