There’s nothing like a bit of state parochialism when it comes to pushing players for the Australian side. But the Herald Sun’s Michael Horan has a point when it comes to Victoria’s Chris Rogers.

Like team-mates Brad Hodge, Cameron White, David Hussey and Peter Siddle, the 31-year-old Rogers seems to be just another Bushranger hovering on the fringe, while yet another young New South Wales player is earmarked for express passage to the top.
In the Age Jesse Hogan also writes about Rogers’ impressive start to the Australian summer.
