I'd be tempted to go something like:

Start: Seifert, Bethell, Sutherland
Loop: JFM, Rogers
Bench: Zampa

But I'd want to see the batting order and if they are batting first/second before locking it in.

Thinking this:

Stoinis, Brown and a little reluctantly Johnson to David, Smith and Wade.

Leaves my only somewhat definite donut as Doran so Vc is Warner tonight and C David, who I would feel more comfortable as VC.
Reversed Stoinis back in for Dwarshuis which allows Konstas E to be taken.

Could have used Doran but there is twice the doubt that he may play now that he has made the squad and even if not in the final 11 today could mess things up if named on Thursday.

Dwarshuis does have a game before that if it impacts you at all this round.

Currently all E's played last night.

My biggest risk with the current team in my mind is benching Doran to field Renshaw and McSweeney.

Should Doran not make the cut today this is the right option but I will be at work when the teams are named and may not be in a position to amend.

The course taken has less risk than benching one of the Brisbane players, doesn't it?

View attachment 82782 Should I loop Konstas’ 68 or keep Neser on field?
How much do you expect Neser to outscore 68 by ?

Probably easier to setup with Harper onfield if you want to use him as captain to take your VC score

Then make sure you put the E on Philippe

Neser might be a better option & Flex over Wakim if you think he is beating 68.

That's a lot of Renegades for a Hurricanes DGR. :eek:
It’s not ideal… I’ve already got 5 Hurricanes and a trade left to spare. I was going to use the trade on getting rid of a renegades player and trading them to a Hurricane, but with the rain around I think I probably need to get rid of Bartlett and trade him to possibly Abbott? Don’t know if I want 6 Hurricanes players going into next round.

You've got more options than that, but I would bank the 68.

You can put the E on Wade, and see how he goes in game one. Then make the call on Philippe on the Adelaide road v Neser on his friendly home deck or play both if Wade fails at the first hurdle making them all one game players in effect.
