Opinion BBL|12: Player X vs Player Y & Trade Discussions

[Dravid]

Smith essentially replaces Vince

Don't see how it affects where Kerr bats.

Kerr might even open 😀

Interesting to see if they bat Smith at opener or 3

 

[Woosie]

Kerr, I know DPP helps, but with Smith returning, he'll be pushed further down the batting order. Plus Abbott is about to monster the next opposition.

Well, that made things easier. Not
DPP is helpful
Abbott is gold

Also,
RD10 Scorchers
RD11 Strikers
RD12 Thunder <-- Warner is back

 

[Woosie]

I'm looking for a cheap Striker

Manenti or Conway?

I'm leaning Manenti, but has Boyce coming soon.
Conway has Siddle.

 

[Darkie]

I need to choose 1 to go

So who goes

Abbott or Kerr

Abbott is more proven and in better form, if you can handle him being SPP. Kerr has a good role, but may be coming off the boil slightly.

I agree about Kerr. Something doesn't seem right. He didn't look like he had anything 'extra' to give.

But that opening idea. 🤔
I would've thought

Philippe
Patterson
Smith
Henriques
Silk
Christian <- leaving??
Kerr

Looking for opinions on how you would rank these trade in options from the DGR players in order as priority? Already have Agar, Lynn, Short, Tye. Currently ranked 85th.

Inglis
Bancroft
Behrendorff
Hardie
Thornton
CDG

How many of these options would you be getting? (As that can impact the ranking of these players for you)

Have two trades left for this round. No boosts unfortunately.

I'm going to assume that's Ashton Agar.

If you can only grab two of these. I would try to grab one from Strikers & one from Scorcher so instead of ranking them simply from best to worst option. I'll split them up for you into 2 parts to suit your teams need.

1st trade: need a Strikers bowler.
Thornton vs CDG
Would pick Thornton as he'll likely bowl 4 overs more consistently than CDG. If you want the POD then go CDG.

2nd trade: need a Scorchers batter
Bancroft vs Inglis vs Hardie
This one is a tough one. If you are after POD then Bancoft is the play. Hardie if you want to play it safe. Inglis if you need a keeper to replace McDermott and want to play it safe. (assuming you have McDermott score)

So that rules Dorf out as you already have 2 bowling options in Tye & Agar.

 

[Herbie66]

That could be a option as well.

How many DGR 12 bowl line players will you have ?

Does Abbott take one of their places ?

Thanks mate, appreciate the advice. Yep that is Ashton. I hadn’t considered one from each team, was initially thinking inglis/behrendorff and hardie, but having 4 scorchers and only 2 strikers could leave me too heavy with scorchers players albeit I think they score well.

Will be taking Thornton at this stage over CDG as they play both Renegades and Stars whose batting lineups are both pretty dubious. Cheers

At this point, 4. and Yes.
Hopefully Jhye is back, and Loose Bus could be on that line too

I need to make my mind up if I want Behrendorff or not.

Behrendorff , Richardson (?) , Tye , Steketee

Still holding Abbott , Ellis & K Richardson

Loose Bus Change & Neser bat line.

Inglis
Bancroft
Behrendorff
Hardie
Thornton
CDG

Given Perth have two doubles near term, I would say:

Inglis
Hardie
Dorf
Bancroft
Thornton/CDG

 

[Deeman1]

Thornton v W Agar?

I know I will pick the wrong one 🤪

Edit: Scratch that, Thornton not named 🤪

 

[blue dreamer]

Last boost question.

Trade in Matthew Kelly or Ashton Turner

Kelly, Turner may not bat if Scorchers fire here.

 

[blue dreamer]

Thanks for the above @Darkie, I bravely, or stupidly (or both) decided to bring in Kelly which leaves me relying on Thornton playing to have 11 scoring players.

But on the flip gives me another double gamer if Thornton doesn't get picked

Sounds good.

One thing I should have mentioned is JS - Turner is a lock and Kelly historically in and out. Jhye could mean he’s safer, but I gather Morris is missing perhaps a little unexpectedly.

If you see any JS risk then I’d probably switch. You want your double players getting a double.
