Probably a guy that’s less known to you AFL guys but if this came from Timmy Williams as suggested it isn’t just another podcast guy. Guy was previously with daily telegraph and anytime he brought forward mail in the nrl season it was usually on the money, was often before main journos. Guy is legit.

We’d still want confirmation as you’d expect it to be circulating heavily, but I’m building as if it’s correct for now.
Good to know.

Hopefully we find out for sure asap as the ripple effect is real.

Lyth expected to be available for the first half of the tournament. Eskinazi expected to be available for the entire tournament.

Do these 2 even make the starting 11 and if so, fro who? I have the starting 11 as follows -

Faf
Bancroft
Hardie
Turner
Inglis
???
Agar
Richardson
Tye
Mills
Behrendorff

I'm not sure which Scorchers to start on the bench round 1 now as unsure the make up of their starting 11 in round 2? Maybe just Tye,Faf and either Inglis/Bancroft and then trade in another couple after round1 e.g. Hardie/Bancroft.

One of Lyth/Eskinazi will very likely play accompanying Faf and Mills as the OS players. Probably Lyth for the first half then Eskinazi once Lyth has finished up. Of course if Lyth isn’t batting well then Eskinazi could replace him at any time.

Agree, with Lyth and Bancroft swapped, so what does that mean for the bowlers? Agar at 7, Tye at 8, Behernforff at 9, then a few need to fit into the last 2, Richardson will take 1 if fit. Not good for Hatzoglou
If all are fit i’m expecting Mills, Tye, Richo and Agar as the mainstays with Hatz/Dorff to take up the last bowling spot depending on the pitch.

Hatz may get a decent run of games early if Richo misses although Kelly may get a run if the pitch is really suited to pace.
