Thanks Conno - Cutting was the one who I would have preferred to omit but maybe DC is an option as a POD move and my chance to get top 100.

I'm in a very similar boat, am considering going Billings to Abbott for last trade which means benching one of Neser or DC, probably has to be DC to cover Abbot in case, risky but I am way behind this round after a terrible Saturday.

The bit that helps us so much here is the quality of the drainage in our sporting stadiums. Yes it's going to rain overnight from Monday to Tuesday in Melbourne, but if thats the only rain, it will have no impact on the two games later that day.

Going with the masses is not going to make a difference to your ranking is how I see it - I a will likely be gambling DC goes poorly and no one has Abbott which could be the diff I need - whereas if DC goes well I will move the same as everyone above me...

Im having a bit of a dilemma right now, Thought today's games were the other way around when i made my plans

Option 1 - play neser and keep cutting on the bench until carey bats (if he fails Phillipe moves to wk1, cutting to bat slot)

Option 2 - play cutting over neser and have no wk loop for a potential carey failure (as i won't have a unlocked player to sub in unless i lose a dc or short type) and have neser stuck on the bench

Think I read 10 posts in 30-45 minutes that the rain was arriving in the last game it was forecast at the MCG and they still got a full game in.

Can get very confusing for people trying to follow.

Thats Melbourne. I live about 10kms from the MCG (east side) and we had thunder, lightning and heavy rain for 20 minutes before it arrived at the MCG, even though it was coming from west to east. It was just good fortune that they got that game completed.

5/131. Big problems after my supposed guns couldn’t fire and I missed the teamlists yesterday which cost me trading in Marnus and keeping Lynn.

Hopefully can recover but not liking my chances.

Is that Adelaide for Tuesday ?

Damn hot as hell here today.

Melbourne

I guess so.

I remember watching a football game at the G one day , sunny on one wing , rain shower on the other , quite bizarre.

I guess we need a poster who is actually at the game and when they get wet they know it's raining and can message us all 😀

Yes spot on, feel i need to do something. 👍

The games are at 3:50pm and 7:30pm. Weather forecast stopping at Noon isn't of much relevance.

Thanks Ken, I'll post later tonight as this gives you a 48 hour look forward and only went to that time slot.

 

[Wolffy84]

Looking at the Adelaide forecast for Monday, the Strikers V Thunder game could be in more trouble than the games in Melbourne on Tuesday.

Storms rolling in from 3pm

I believe back in the 'pre-internet weather radar' days, the Jordan F1 team paid a farmer not far from the Magny-Cours circuit to call them every time it started/stopped raining there. Jordan won that race.

That will be one big cloud if it produces rain in France & the G 😀

Smart plan by the sounds of it.

@Deeman1 might be our best bet to be the weather man for Tuesday

Will be a point that 2 matches in a row on an outfield thats chopped to **** becomes a problem, wouldnt want too much rain.

Neser or Siddle to take the on-field spot?
The other will be looped with DC.

Once the first game starts you can't move Cutting

Siddle as he should get the death overs.

Siddle seems to get held for the later overs and thats an opportunity for more wickets.

 

[Herbie66]

Confusing.

I think he must have Bertus as WK1 to swap with Philippe (maybe) if Carey fails.

I guess Cutting is currently bat E

Siddle. Most wickets in the power surge this season and has taken 3 wickets or more on 3 occasions this season. Neser dependent on favourable early pitch conditions (for swing) to be very successful.
