Surely you can add to something here, to be ranked 26th is a fantastic effort. Can you do me a favour and join Group Code (623147). This will enable the leadership group to track your team and you can also join a SCS league next year, but you need to be active on the site, which you are for AFL, I believe you're a Blues man from memory.
Done. Thanks for that.

Blues top 4, but I'm struggling to find much of SC interest :unsure:

The final 3 days of a long season and something tells me there will be more curves coming.

Thanks to Steven Peter Deveraux Smith for punishing the **** out of me on Saturday night.

I'm a pretty firm believer in things happening for a reason, and I just think this is the path I have been on all along.

The lead is still in tact, only smaller. And there's 4 decisions to the line. If I make 4 good ones I win. If I make any less than that then it's in jeopardy. Either way, I can't control the outcomes, like everyone else I just attempt to make the best decisions I can with the info I have.

So much intrigue around the weather tonight. That's going to be a bit of a scramble in itself. I know there's people worse off in the chasing pack than me if it strikes, and I know they don't have the use of a boost to assist.

All of this guarantees nothing because we all know you can strike it lucky without advantages in this game.

Good luck for the run home to all, and may the best team win.
Your ability to hold a lead for a number of rounds now despite those of us behind throwing everything we can at you, has been extremely admirable. You are there because of your decision making, so I am sure that you will continue to make well informed decisions over these next few days.

Good luck, you deserve it given the season you have had.

Smith won't be rested, he requested and was granted permission to stay longer before he hooks up with the test squad. That doesn't sound like a rest to me, but another 170 points tonight, you might want to get him in. 😁
Yeah I saw that, just wasn't clear to me if that was for both games.

He requested permission to play the Perth game, to try and get the gf in Sydney. Not a lot of benefit to him playing today - quick turnaround, long plane flight all with a dodgy back. Not like he needs the time at the crease!

Not saying it will happen, just that I won't be surprised if it does (and if a few of his mates join him).

Going to be fascinating that Sixers line up tonight. Do they just keep the form going, or rest players? Little worried about Abbott tbh. If someone like him is rested I’ll just have to straight up field Bazley rather than looping

Also weighing up Smith but unsure. Surely he doesn’t go 100+ three games in a row?

My Predicted Sixers XI is:

Patterson
Phillipe
Henriques
Silk
Christian
Kerr
J.Edwards
Bird
M.Edwards
Murphy
Naveed

Shaw maybe replaces another bat

Reckon they rest the bowlers, Smith and move some of the middle order up to give them more of a bat. Wouldn’t be surprised if Kerr opened.
