Discussion BBL|12: Teams & In Game Discussion: Congrats Diabolical B2B Champion

[Woosie]

Time to ask the guru

@Woosie

Who/which Heat is Woosie's Dad trading in ?

He's out, back for the flip. His piece of paper has a few names on it, but it looks like he's leaning

Bazley, Neser, & Steketee

Has Pierson already.

1,106 (Thornton C)

Honestly, I’ll take this score but I should be ashamed… cos I’ve managed to make 2 blunders in 2 rounds.

Rd 1. Accidentally got stuck with Sangha as Captain after being locked out while still creating my team.

Rd 2. Traded in and VC’d Mitch Marsh not knowing he was injured 🤦🏽‍♂️… had to settle for Thornton as C (shoulda just gone with MShort at the AO)

Any suggestions for future trades/or any tips appreciated.

fwiw I would probably look at :-

Marsh - > Steketee via Stoinis
Farooqi - > Swepson
Hales/Rossouw (haven't checked their BE's) - > Neser

 

[bunlit]

Just a clause to the Neser pick, he provides a handy loophole for the SGR next with Heat playing the last game if you don't have Connolly or other loop options

 

[AaronXA]

Have decided to go

Marsh, Farooqi, Wood and Rossouw —>
Hardie, Steketee, Dooly and Neser

Have decided I want Stekers and Neser from BH…

Might have missed the beat with Hardie but love his role (thoughts?)

Not fond of dooly but with a -80 BE seems like a must-have… would rather have Hossien preparing for the REN dbl

 

[AaronXA]

Don't want to sound like a smartass but how did you not know Marsh was out injured ?

The lack of talk on here as trade in option for Round 2 would have been enough (for me) to ask the question.

Understand people don't often have time to check Squads and starting XI's.

Positive is you now have a lot of cash to use to trade in anyone 🤗

Still a very strong score all thing's considering

Yeh didn’t have much time on the day and ended up missing about 50 pages worth of stuff on this site… I skimmed through a bunch of articles in the app itself, they all had Marsh in, and all I could think of was how solid he was last szn… so I bought him in and VC’d him 😭

The worst part is that the next logical pick for VC was Jhye and woulda pushed me to the 1.5K range for points in that round.

If ever in doubt on a players availability send me a PM, glad to help

Trades currently so far are:

Agar ---> Bazley
Sams ---> Steketee
Dorff ---> Neser
Farooqi ---> Jhye Richo

Is it viable to run with only Stek and Neser for the Heat double in order to swap Bazley for a cash cow in Dooley?
Any thoughts would be appreciated

 

[The Myth]

Just a clause to the Neser pick, he provides a handy loophole for the SGR next with Heat playing the last game if you don't have Connolly or other loop options

Do we expect him to rejoin the test squad and be unavailable? Thought he’d just continue on with the heat

I’d be pretty confident he rejoins the test squad, that’s what has happened in past years. Usually there aren’t any two day test matches

How ?

He is not in the Boxing Day Test Squad

Heat's game in Round 4 is December 27th

 

[7/11]

Lots of peeps be using a boost


Why?

I don’t see myself using one for a few rounds at least, so don’t want to disadvantage myself by leaving 3 boosts for the last 5-6 rounds when I may already have the team I desire.

I’d say a lot of people are struggling for cash after most thunder players lost a decent amount of value and need to trade out 4 players to get their targets for this round.

If not, then scrap my whole point, I just assumed he was in the squad

 

[Woosie]

Thinking of boosting

should I boost for Dooley and Shadap??
Already have Bazley

A Agar > Shadap Khan
Rossouw > Neser
Tye > Steketee
Farroqi > Dooley

or play no boost

Rossouw > Neser
Tye > Steketee
Farooqi > Kuhnemann

I'm leaning boosting, but also really want too save it

I could do no boost. Instead of Kuhnemann, pick up Dooley for cash gen, or Shadap

 

[Shannon]

Changed my mind, doing this instead :-

 

[50 shades of Wade]

What am I missing with Billings here?

I’ve seen him in very little trade ins but personally he’s a lock. Averaged 52 last year before missing the last couple of games and batting 4 which is still decent.

Is it that he’s not keeping anymore and a high break even or is it something else I’m missing?

Will be popular trades. 3 Heat and Dooley.

146k feels alot for a middle order batsman, particularly one thats not been in the best form of late.

& one who's probably not going to get you a quick 20 for SR bonus all that often

Interesting to note Kuhnemann not on this list

Will make a fair bit of cash if he can continue to score well and stay in their best XI, personally have question marks if either of those things happen so will be passing.
