Discussion BBL|14 Teams & In Game Discussion: GW 7 starts FRI 10th JAN 6:15pm AEST [HOB v SYT]

[Darkie]

To add to this - she is 36 weeks pregnant. What are the rest of us losers doing?!

Baby brain is working wonders!

 

[THCLT]

787 (Maxwell)
16 SI (49 average)

Johnson, Renshaw, Dwarshuis, Philippe & Edwards (?) To play.

 

[Pesci001]

7/731
Harper, Stoinis, Curren (DNP) a total of 41pts

with J Edwards, J Philippe, B Dwarshuis (C), S Johnson next game

 

[mike89]

6/654 (Bartlett)

Only Stoinis tonight like many. 5 to go including C.

Maxwell being quiet helps, if Bartlett goes well tomorrow this round is probably salvaged.

 

[Diabolical]

6/695 Tall Paul assuming Edwards doesn’t play even though he is named in their squad.

116 from my three Stars on their double is well below what I was hoping @ 23.2 PSI or really 19.3 PSI given I was expecting Curran to play two!

I ummed and ahhed about trading Short to Maxwell. Relieved that I held firm for a 43 point advantage and a 99 BE differential advantage. It was only the low BE’s of Renegade targets that worried me about being able to afford to get Short back in that swayed me in the end.

It is not all chocolates with Walter as captain, I still need him to turn up tomorrow with a better effort than his first game before taking him as a win over Maxy captainers!

 

[Pacifico]

5/649 Tall paul. May just be 6 down pending Edwards

Injuries/ a lockout stuff up & players being spuds leaving me in a precarious position where i'm currently being belted in 12 of 16 leagues (inc 3 public leagues)

 

[Miller is a Steele]

2/682 12 SI - 3 down if Edwards is out

Overton 131
Short 120

Thornton (4) excluded as the 12th man.

Overton excellent once again. Short finally came off with the bat. Shame Ellis caught a screamer to get him out, was still ~90 runs to chase. Still not convinced he’s back just yet, lots of heart in mouth stuff. Didn’t time it as well as he usually does, even a couple of his sixes didn’t look like they connected all that well. Bowling role not good today. Looks as though they have the 4 specialists than Scott or Short is used more depending on how the pitch is playing. Adelaide and Marvel next. Can see me potentially captaining Overton next round over him. I’ll worry about that later.

4/709 13 SI- assuming Edwards gets up since he’s in the squad, 5 down if not

Stoinis 27
Curran DNP

Stoinis likely goes next round with the bowling role not secure. Curran obviously goes too with the injury.

Walter C, Dwarshuis, Edwards 🤞, Peirson, Johnson, Kerr, and Renshaw to come.

 

[Under The Dome]

12/17 of my squad have the chance of not taking the field with weather on Wednesday

 

[Rowsus]

Rowsus: 3/652 - Walter - 12 SI = 54/SI (37/SI without Thornton/Johnson )
Assuming Edwards is cooked. Thornton 4 dropped out. Thank goodness for Johnson and Overton!!!!

Wife: 4/675 - McSweeney - 12 SI = 56/SI

Rowsus: 6/680 - Walter - assuming no Edwards - Walter (C), Johnson, Dwarshuis, Philippe, Hosein to come.
13 SI = 52/SI

Wife: 7/716 - McSweeney - McSweeney, Johnson, Dwarshuis, Philippe to come. (Has Edwards too.)
13 SI = 55/SI

 

[nmh94]

7/741 (Maxwell). A very poor night - Maxwell, Stoinis and Harper all duds, no second game for Curran.

My wife - 7/1137 (Johnson). She has Johnson, Renshaw, Vince and Henriques to come.

 

[Professor]

7/561 or 8/561 if Edwards doesn't play. Walter captain, Phillipe and Dwarsh to play.

Double single gamers in Curran and Rogers. 😁

 

[Herbie66]

Stars on the Double

Duckett 210
Webster 100 (1)
Usama Mir 86

Maxwell 77
Siddle 66
Stoinis 51
Cartwright 42
Curran 39 (1)
Paris 39 (1)
Harper 26
Couch 12 (1)
Rogers 12 (1)
Merlo 11
Warren 4 (1)

 

[Dravid]

Currently sitting on 612 with Phillippe, Renshaw, Hosein and Walter (C) to come (assuming Edwards doesn't get up).

Umm'd and argh'd about the best way to play this round and in the end decided to keep my Gades and get a leg up for next round.

Keeping all my Gades hurt me depth a little bit also meant I faded Maxy, which worked out ok. In the end the choice was between Johnson and Mir and I went Mir.

Going to be a drop for me this round, however the last game of the round has been kind to me so far, so hopefully it continues!

 

[mike89]

Just in from the 7 call of the Test: Inglis out of Sydney with a low grade calf strain, Webster is back with the squad as the reserve

Add another one to the list!

Time now to get rid of all Stars from our sides as quickly as possible.

 

[Under The Dome]

Stoinis may bowl in the next couple.

M Short must be close to a Squad call up 😉

Wonder if they try and get Connolly involved with a view to the Sri Lanka tour

Wouldn't think Duckett (or Usama) owners will be in a hurry to sell.

Wait for Curran scans , but I was trading him out in any case.

Harper won't get much so just leave him at WK2/Bat bench

Stoinis probably won't get the higher priced Renegades/Strikers for next round so probably worth keeping (maybe bench)

Maxi owners will more than likely trade to get higher priced Renegades/Strikers

Might have other issues trying to move on Heat & Sixers players as well before they lose too much value depending on scores tonight

 

[Darkie]

Stoinis may bowl in the next couple.

Saves a trade!

Sounds like they will add another batter
