How many Stars/Renegades is too many?
I currently have 5 of each..

Comes down to personal choice.

Some play Round by Round

Others have a starting side with Round 2 & 3 in mind.

If you are trying to maximise DGR players each round then 10 is probably a great start.

Just need to be able to move some of your Renegade players on before their Bye and hold onto the Stars until Round 3 if possible.

I currently have 5 Stars and most likely will have 3 Renegades.

At the end of Round 1 when I am 40,000th I will probably say to myself "why do I even bother"

Short is in 51.2% of teams, or 22,300 teams, meaning there's only around 43.5K teams entered so far. If you are in 40,000th, yes, you might as well quit.

The Adelaide Strikers are still hopeful Brendan Doggett will be available for Tuesday’s opener against the Sydney Thunder in Canberra despite staying with the Test squad.

Heres the team. Would appreciate any feedback on it as I am a a bit of rookie in bbl supercoach. Bit worried about not being well enough prepared for future rounds and Kahn playing both games.

Have decided to fade the wkp position to facilitate matt short and I'm open to any changes.

I would put Doran onfield (in case you wish to use him as the 🍩 to take your VC score)

I would VC a 🌟 player with a DGR , either Curran or Webster will be popular.

If they score enough make Doran captain.

Otherwise use a Renegade player as captain.

4 Scorchers/Strikers for Round 2 preparation ✓

Abbott for Round 3 ✓

If you have spare cash I would look at Wildermuth (should play with Neser out)

Looks good

Any chance of rain in Canberra ?

Goodness me , all the value and cheapies on offer and half the comp is still starting him.

Maybe I don't know what I am doing.

Seems a low number playing , forum seems quieter this year as well , maybe people are going elsewhere for info

Like the look of T1 with a look at WK 2 and Bat 6 , then allows Doran to swing if necessary and bring in Seifert.

Think people are just being more cagey this year. Not providing info for fear they’ll be copied.

Could be very well right

Whilst dismissing the notion that two or more people independently may come to the same conclusion or train of thought.

I’ve always found I go against the grain enough naturally that people will avoid my advice if it doesn’t resonate. My problem is going along with the crowd on a pick when I did not want it in the first place. Those are usually the ones I regret the most.
