867 for me, allowed me to rise 5 spots to lucky number 13 (again!).

Just had a look - it turns out I’ve been in the top 30 since round 4, but this is the first round I’ve managed to hold a spot within @Tails’ top 20 🙂

So 362 to first, top 3 separated by 45 pts.

shoulda woulda coulda, bring hales back is incredible luck, Carey easy in next round on that pitch, Stoin Vc in a way stuffed me from a richo C but to be honest still would have went short anyway.

not sure of trades, stacks of cash, carey in the easy one but I think i look at players for loop scenarios before anthing else now

Thinking I will skip Carey but bring in Hales, he is just too aggressive in the powerplay, puts on a good score before anybody even has a chance to stop him.

Out: Wildermuth, Larkin, Pfeffer
In: Hales, Labuschagne, Swepson

Will loop Swepson and Inglis in BWL and WK, still need to pick a BAT to loop out:
Maxwell, Labuschagne, Livingstone

VC Stoinis into C Short

Think that just about wraps it up unless I get tempted by Finch.

how is that brave? 2 games batting on a road and wont even loose cash, what scenario would you trade them out?
How many players have gone back to back centuries in BBL history ?

Can't recall watching last night if they had another pitch prepared for the next few games or whether they will try and "refresh" the current pitch.

Maybe it's Khawaja or Ferguson's turn

Think Weatherald actually averages more than Carey at AO , perhaps Head performs.

Yes I know a lot of hypotheticals , just can't see Carey & Hales replicating their 150 + SC scores that's all (could be totally wrong as well).

Probably will need to look deeper into Carey v Thunder & Hales v Strikers.

I guess though they say you are only as good as your last Innings.

I guess again it depends on people's circumstances , where they are ranked , what they are playing for etc etc.

Chase the same players as everyone else will bring in or dare to do something different and hope it pays off.

Jumped from 104 to 33!

SCS punted off the top league spot by a 6 teamer though...
I'll put my hand up there, I had the lowest score in the league by almost 100, again. Average round score excluding my team is 795.6 - clearly enough for top spot (the other league is 786.3). We'll get it back. At least one of these last two rounds I'll get a good score, surely, if not we have 7 other leagues right behind who could do it!

Don’t think anybody is expecting either to replicate their 150+ scores but trading them out with two games each to come at AO is completely illogical. Not to mention their break-evens both in the negatives.

It's a idea.

Please explain why it it is illogical ?

Carey with 4 scores above 50 +
Hales with 6 scores above 50 +

Posted their averages at Adelaide Oval , it's not Don Bradman we are talking about.

Hardly shouts consistentcy to me , which we all know rarely happens in T20.

Play the same as everyone else and what do you achieve ?

I get that but you said trade out, one ball they are both cooked like any BAT, but if you owned them I see no scenario to trade them out.
