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

[Bomber18]

Would have been pretty happy with 30 for the game. Being 40 with maybe a bat to come is just gravy!!!

The fielding points were already the gravy!! 🤣

 

[Black Hawk]

Not sure why Harper and Lawrence bat before Stoinis and Maxwell

 

[Shannon]

How much longer can the stars have Rogers & Harper batting in their top 3?
First 4 overs are so important in setting the foundation for the innings yet those 2 every game seem to get out early in a variety of ways.

 

[Pacifico]

VC bethel slowly inching closer to forcing me to play with one less player on field

 

[Foxy's Fe-Lions]

Because it's the Melbourne Stars.

Duckett
Stoinis
Lawrence
Maxwell
Cartwright
Harper/Rogers/anyone else
Would be how I’d line up.

 

[7/11]

In this episode of “How will Sutherland lose his team the match?” It appears that the early favourite is his bowling this time round.

 

[Darkie]

I’ve just raised the bat … for the round.

Slightly concerning that there are fewer than 1.5 games to go!!

 

[Darkie]

I wonder whether long-stop becomes a more commonplace fielding position with all of these ramp shots being played.

I take it we may not be winning our doubles matchup then?

I’m not even 150 yet with 7 in this game and one already played. Bethell making up the majority of my points currently.

Kellaway should be in the team batting at 6, Rogers out

Plus how as captain, he will lose you Fantasy team the match, as well

Gotta be someone better than Rogers going around. Surely could entice someone half decent from another team over.

 

[Dravid]

If you're not giving that out, you never will

 

[7/11]

Wasting all this time when snicko says there’s a spike when it can be nothing else but an edge. If this ends up not out, it’s a joke.

 

[Chumpion]

The stars should run a competition where each game they pluck a random fan out of the crowd, chuck a green shirt on them and then send them out to open. Might finally see some decent power plays!

Not in our pool!!

It at least would be entertaining!

I’d also be careful, as there’d be a handful that would suggest Essendon do the same thing!

Recall back when the Stars last made the final they had a pretty good opening pair. Wonder where they went...

...They're still at the club, you say? And one of them is the captain?

 

[Ratzondix]

Did Ben Cutting retire? Last night the commentators were saying DC wants to come back. Would be handy for the stars lower order and 1-2 overs a game.
