Double: M Stoinis, T Curran (C), B Webster, H McKenzie, A Zampa, T Rogers, J Brown and T Seifert/W Sutherland
Single: J Richardson, C Overton, J Edwards and S Abbott

Selected Tye over Connolly as I wanted to wait a round on Scorchers batters and wanted to start at least two Scorchers bowlers. Behrendorff likely to make it three next round. McKenzie over Milne was a tough decision for the second Stars bowling avenue behind Curran with not much lost yet. Harper with the E and the decision to make as whether to change Sutherland to Seifert or switch Edwards to Sutherland allowing both Seifert and Sutherland but would prefer not to have five Renegades and only one Sixer.

For those feeling a bit down just saw a post where a coach had both Connolly & Richardson on the bench to loop but then forgot to put the E on either of them 😅

Well done to those that took Connolly (E) , would be locking that in , don't think too many players from a side on a DGR go 100+ let alone many from the Renegades.

I will take my Turner's 47 over Harper's 11* and swing Doran to bat line and bring Seifert in as WK 1.

Might swap Doran to Scott , DPP link with Allen & Overton might be handy (still likely to fade Short Round 2 😱)

Just leave Harper @ WK2 all season

So CA advise Webster not to bowl due to a Test match beginning on the 26th which he might not even be part of.

Words escape me

Does that mean he is getting recalled to the Test Squad ?

Do they even bowl at practice anymore (fully understand it wouldn't be high intensity)

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?
I think I would go with the Konstas option, unless you’re very bullish on him (in which case an Edwards type to a 39k loop may still be worth considering). I think it costs you a DGR player down the track, but it seems cleaner (eg you’re not relying on Johnson to regain fitness on your preferred timeline), and I think having an FD with a good draw will prove pretty valuable.

Not taking Clarke’s vc obviously, will be rolling the dice on T.Rogers of the Renegades variety to hopefully pull back some of the deficit. Dorf, Richo and Curran great. Hoping Clarke, McKenzie and Webster pull their fingers out next game.

Another question re the flex position, if you have a double game player in the flex and the lowest scorer onfield is a single game player, do you only get the 1 score?

Edit- Finn Allen scored 6. I have Sutherland as my flex, might change that.

Flex gives you 12 starters , you get your Highest 11 scores each round

Doesn't matter whether they are DGR or SGR players

Cheers mate, I just had another look at my team…

I have Harper (E) in WK spot, is it worth trading Edwards to Phillipe and forgo Harper’s score and then switch Doran into BAT to take Cooper’s score and Curran’s VC? Allows me to keep Konstas on the bench.
