Maybe too tight a time frame to get someone signed?

They've already got a couple of kids on the books.

Nope, I'd heard a few weeks ago that the Thunder had planned to use DC if required as a LRP. In their coaching staff, and as simple as outside of their handful of blokes already within their LRP crop, he would be as good as if not better than anyone else, and within their coaching setup knows their plans, etc. I believe he even got some NSW grade cricket in for a few weeks there pre Big Bash.

I am sure I read he recently made a century in Grade cricket

Yeah 3 games of grade... 270 runs @ 90 (highest score 130), 7 wickets @ 12 (best bowling 4/40).

Don’t do this to me, I don’t want to have an excuse to have DC in my team. :ROFLMAO:

Actually a little surprised he wasnt signed by someone earlier after declaring he was out of retirement, was good over in Hong Kong and has scored 130,72 and 68 for UNSW this summer.

Much worse blokes to have taken off the scrap heap.

Just encountered a weird “update trade” issue. I had originally traded out O Pope but have decided to trade Overton instead. I had moved Overton to my Flex position but it wouldn’t let me trade him out - said I had to trade someone from the keeper or bat positions. I flipped Overton with Doran, updated the trade, and then flipped Pope to the flex spot.

Something to be aware of if you are planning on leaving trades late as you might not have the ability to pivot positrons if you can’t use DPP to get players in the right spots!
