Discussion SC BBL|11: Diabolical wins $25k major prize...!!!

Bugger... Perth scorchers basically on a DGR earlier than expected. Well that sucks... only got the one scorcher in Tye. Wish I kept Agar from last round.

Yeah but they did have an extra BYE courtesy of the cancelled Stars game, so maybe they will still have the DGR next round???

I assume the scorchers and heat games (4th and 6th) just swap around as the Sixers were due to play the scorchers on Thursday.

Can't imagine so - they were already on a back to back weren't they? I'm sure Scorchers vs Sixers was one of the games in the double too so likely the Heat will just slot in there once they have a chance to call up replacements if necessary.

Heat have their existing R9 game scheduled on the same day haha! Think we’ll have a fair few fixture changes so it’ll be a fair bit of luck trying to capture the DGRs.

Now my interest has sparked up again 😀

Can't control the uncontrollables so just deal with what is ahead of us the best we can.

Everyone is probably advantages/disadvantaged no matter what happens.

 

[toxic]

Ending the round now disadvantages owners of Sixers and Heat players, continuing the round advantages owners of multiple Scorchers and disadvantages Heat owners. It's a tough one.

Or cancel the round ???

Who knows atm

Heat likely to be decimated when they play next anyway. Sounds as though covid has swept through the club.

Heat v Renegades scheduled for Thursday as was the original Scorchers v Sixers game.

 

[Connoisseur]

Emphasises how pointless playing a fantasy competition in the middle of a pandemic is thats about it, no way you can plan for any of this rubbish.

Those coaches that have joined me in NBA, EPL and NFL over the past 1-2 years will beg to differ as they have enjoyed career best seasons by putting measures in place to successfully navigate player losses to covid protocols of which there have been far greater than those in the BBL along with fixture changes, with minimal extra trades received.

 

[tso]

Wonder if they will give us the Heat players average score ?
It's something and won't be too much to pee people off who don't have
many of them.

 

[Ben's Beasts]

Scorchers v Thunder likely to be moved to Thursday night per Tom Morris.

Hopefully a venue change too with that wild weather expected.

Keep seeing people saying 20/20 is not physically taxing , no reason they couldn't play 4 games in one day at a venue

Any chance sc ends the round now and scorchers vs Sixers is the first game of the next round

Just double up like they used to in the WBBL. What could possibly go wrong?

More LRP's , teams could play at 2 different venues the same day.

I think the BPL a few seasons ago had teams playing twice on the same day.

It’s like the old AFL half games they had in the preseason haha

 

[Herbie66]

Fakhar as C next time the Heat play outside of Queensland , he might be the only one healthy.

What about finals day in the vitality blast? Two semi finals in Morning/early arvo followed by the final at night. Great day of cricket and two teams forced to play twice. The winner of the afternoon semi has to play back to back
