Discussion BBL|14 Teams & In Game Discussion: SATURDAY DOUBLE HEADER 11th JAN 3:45pm AEST [SY6 v PER] & 7:00pm AEST [ADE v BRI]

[Under The Dome]

Just checking we can't use the flex position for looping, as they only cover the lowest score?

No bench score for Flex position

 

[Shannon]

Get scorched 😎

Solid performance, looks like another long season for stars

Trying to get Connolly onfield, so Hosein it is.

 

[Darkie]

Not sure if anyone else had considered holding Harper as a potential WK donut in the event he was left out of the side, but if so, his donut draw is not great until round 4, but really opens up after that.

He plays in the following games from round 2 onward:

1
1 and 4
4
3
4
4
Bye
4

Hopefully Cartwright is okay, but if he’s not, Harper’s job security may increase, making him hard to hold as a dedicated donut.

 

[Aston]

2/483 (Curran)

Very happy with that start!

Jhye 103
Cooper (E) 102
Curran (VC) 100
Stoinis 37
Webster 19
McKenzie 15
Harper (E) 11

 

[Darkie]

Khan, JFM, Seifert or Zampa captain? I'm leaning towards khan

I would have said Khan too, but have now omitted him altogether given the job security risk that Bethell appears to present.

I’d probably go Zampa amongst the others, I think the Gades batsmen have some tough matchups.

 

[Sideshow Bob]

2/407 (6SI) Curran C

Loop gets my curran Vc and Connolly
May roll the dice with Harper E as he probably still gets the second game now, feels a bit flat Tye over the others stings

 

[Ben's Beasts]

2/385 (Curran)

Curran, Stoinis, McKenzie, Richardson and Tye.

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

1/388 Curran VC 6 SI

Curran x 2, Cooper (E), Stoinis, Webster & Milne.

Clarke lowest score not included in total

 

[Tamuhawk]

2/472 (Curran) from 7 SI

Looping Connolly and taking Curran's VC score. Jhye brilliant to make that my 3rd player to ton up in the one game. Had Tye on the bench instead of Dorf as I was $800 short. Stoinis, Webster, McKenzie & Harper very disappointing and definitely looks like a mistake loading up on Stars.

Still happy with that start!

 

[T43597]

2/372 - Jhye & Connolly played

Webster, Stoinis, Curran & McKenzie with doubles. Will have to choose a Gade as captain after Webster failed as VC. Seifert, JFM, Khan & Zampa are the options. Im tempted to risk it with JFM.

 

[tso]

2/357 or 2/347
7 SI
LOW SCORE 10

 

[Darkie]

@Rowsus

Some other donut to play options (please check before selecting!)

Bird
Anyone else who is surprisingly omitted when teams are revealed (eg Paris, Stek, Bird types)
Patterson?
McSweeney??

 

[Beg2Differ]

2/472 Curran

JRicho, Curran (v will take), Connolly (e will take), Stoinis, Webster, McKenzie.

Need to find the right doughnut to put on the BAT line to take Connolly & Curran and will do so. I was going to take Doran as WKP2 but if I put him on the BAT line then I need to find another WKP2 and not sure who that might be yet.

Very happy with that.

 

[Darkie]

2/385 (Curran)

Curran, Stoinis, McKenzie, Richardson and Tye.

No Webster is looking like a nice POD based on that belated feedback re CA guidance.

 

[blue dreamer]

Definitely need a 3rd wicket before you even consider it, I would think.
90-100 points minimum required, to bring in a donut in Rnd 1.
You lose a place in your team. and potential $$$$ growth.
No good doing that for an 80!!!!!

What about 102 and 103?
Connelly and Jhye, might already have a donut if Bazley not named.
Already have Doran for captain loop but won't need that with Webster on 19 points.

 

[Under The Dome]

3/494 Curran (VC)
6 SI

Connolly, Behrendorff and Richardson played with Curran and McKenzie the other two.

37 from Stoinis is a tough call to put in another DG or take and put in a future DG.

 

[Aston]

Is it worth trading Sutherland/Edwards to a DTP (e.g. Johnson) in order to take Coopers score?

Or do you think a straight swap from Konstas to a 39.5k loop is better?

 

[T43597]

2/372 - Jhye & Connolly played

Webster, Stoinis, Curran & McKenzie with doubles. Will have to choose a Gade as captain after Webster failed as VC. Seifert, JFM, Khan & Zampa are the options. Im tempted to risk it with JFM.

I may actually drop Khan for Sutherland as i have the cash. Then it would be JFM or Sutherland as captain. Leaning towards JFM but its risky, very risky.

 

[Pacifico]

2/453 Curran VC

Curran x 2, Jhye (E), Connolly (E) Stoinis & Mckenzie

happy the loops paid off, thx to rolling lockout am now looking at loading up on the likes of Pope/Johnson etc in anticipation of future doubles
