Caused me to double check my spreadsheet but you were right ..

I was terrible with players and teams 2-3 seasons ago so make sure I am correct now before I post.

 

[Herbie66]

I'd have heat lineup as:

Banton
Bryant
Lynn
Renshaw
Cutting
Peirson
Laughlin
Lalor
Steketee
Swepson
Khan

They could potentially drop Swepson and have an extra batter in Heazlett and Renshaw could provide a few overs, but I think they have more than enough batting power with those top 6.

happy with that

ok then , how do you see the Scorchers lining up ? ?

According to cricinfo, Heazlett seems to be in much better form than Peirson. So if Banton keeps, might be an option to play Heazlett over Peirson.

Plus hard to see Bryant and Banton surviving past the 10 over mark given they are both players who go hard. So whoever bats at 4th might get decent game time.

Boof has confirmed that Peirson will be keeping.

Can't say that Heazlet or Peirson have ever entered my team considerations yet ... nothing to say I'm right though !!

Mmm ...

Oh ok. Thanks.

I think I have nailed 9 out of 11 spots (not that Voges reads my posts) , might be even harder to pick if Bancroft stays with the Test Squad and Patterson is out injured.

Like many really hoping Green is named Round 1 (or Sutherland/McGurk) and not sure if Paris plays ahead of Kelly or not.

If I can't get a $42k playing option on my bench it might be back to Milenko again who gave me nightmares last season or sacrifice a more expensive player.

I don't think you have to go too risky bench wise this year ...
- Hopefully Sutherland, Harris , Jewel ?, Cameron? , Paris ?, Agar ? etc or spend a little bit more ...

fwiw

Livingstone
Patterson
Bancroft
Marsh
Turner
Green/Inglis/Whiteman
Agar
Richardson
Paris/Kelly
Fawad

Bancroft could open and Livingstone slide down to 4.

Livingstone ... ??? need to go looking .. does he bowl or another token DPP player ..

Harris , Peirson
Nevill
??? , Green/Sutherland

Steketee , Boland , Agar , Paris all look viable maybe Freeman or Mennie also

Thanks .. a few more to add to my watch list ...

very occasionally bowls , although reports are Marsh might not be ready to bowl and not sure how Turner's shoulder is so he could be the 6th/7th option depending on Green.

 

[Herbie66]

Pat Brown if you need a VC/C loophole for the first 6-7 weeks could be a option as well.

Last summer, there were 35 SuperCoach BBL players available for the basement price of $42,000.
In BBL09, there are currently just 11.

Well bugger me ... that is actually an astute insight !!

 

[Herbie66]

Livingstone ... ??? need to go looking .. does he bowl or another token DPP player ..

Livingstone actually took 14 wickets from 28 overs in this year's Vitality Blast so he might be more useful than I first thought.

Will need to check if he has been bowling in the MSL.

IF Agar goes to India , he might get a bit more of a bowl depending who they sign as injury replacement players for Behrendorff and Tye , all conjecture at the moment until Squads are finalised.

May end up being just another English batsmen that fails to live up to the hype or one worth looking at.
