Discussion BBL|14 Teams & In Game Discussion: GW 8 - ALL GAMES 6:30pm AEST STARTS

[Diabolical]

916 (Ferguson)

This far up the pointy end I'm not sure where I'll end up.

Now to get my head around the next round. Another single game round with rain around!

HUGE!!! We might have a new leader. 🤞

 

[Melmo]

622 Dwarsh. Picking Jordan over Stoinis 2 rounds ago continuing to haunt me, especially considering I Had to cop a donut with 3 hurricanes players. Bethell and Bartlett as trade ins no good either. Onto the next.

 

[Professor]

819(Warner)
Couldn't have asked for a much better game to end the round, Maxwell 113, new recruit Abbott with 99, new recruit Webster 59 and Edwards with a respectable 48. Was counting on Brown to play to get 11 because of having 4 canes, so very thankful that I could not only hold pace but potentially have a good rank improvement.

Great score Max, hopefully we can get another win, my score was a little underwhelming.

Neser 68
Renshaw 63
Stoinis 57

Agar 24
Billings 20

Interesting decisions coming up , 3 Sixers and 1 Scorcher , with a few underperformers I don't really want to field

that's more like the Herbie we know!!

 

[Boomerstar08]

672 (Connolly...)

Yeah I had some good scores; Sutho (166) - Dorff (99) - Rogers (119) - Ferg (86) - Johnson (81) however... the likes of Connolly (2(x2) 4) - Bethell (3) - Philippe (18) - Turner (8) - Wes (24) and Green (10) doesn't help one bit.

Feels a bit unders, but not overly sure, hopefully can go larger at the back end of the season and rise up the ranks

 

[Under The Dome]

The Stars finish the season with the Renegades @Marvel and Hurricanes @MCG

Decent chance to win both those.

 

[Pacifico]

789 Neser

Happy enough with that given I only had 11 players this round,
moved from 352 to 219

 

[Ben's Beasts]

Up 2054 to 2094, was struggling for motivation after making some poor moves at the start on top of some bad luck.
Was hoping to trade in some Scorchers but the weather isn't looking great for that game so thinking about a plan b.

 

[Miller is a Steele]

779 Edwards

Stoinis 57
Edwards C 48x2

Stoinis great with the ball today after his first failure with the bat. Edwards did well in the bowling innings and had a great opportunity to make a quick 20 but fell for 9. Would’ve been incredibly handy. Still not happy about his dismissal. Wasn’t all that conclusive and I’m a fan of “benefit of the doubt goes to the batter”, but there’s every chance my Edwards captaincy tinted glasses were swaying me to that conclusion!

The Edwards v Stoinis captaincy choice only cost 9 points. The real jackpot would’ve been if I went through with Sutherland.

Feel like it’s an above average score. Good for the top 10/20/50/100/etc. hopes, but took a hit in the 1st overall aspirations as I see @Dravid with a mammoth 916! So I’ll be a minimum of 137 (was 66) behind 1st overall since we were tied for 5th. Well done mate! Don’t want to go the early crow but I’d assume you’d be number 1 and probably have some cushion too.

Held rank, nice. Got a bit nervous I’d drop a bit for a second there when all these 800+ scores were getting posted. 5 SCS members in the top 7

Wow... No pressure!

Nice to see SCS doing so well, hopefully one of us brings it home!

Not to mention the Champ breathing down all of our necks!

 

[Connoisseur]

812 with Edwards as C. Thunder inclusions did not go as planned when the likes of Richardson, etc were under consideration as alternatives. Ended up fielding Harper over Davies which I would have preferred to avoid if Walter was available or if a washout was avoided. Renegades bowlers excellent along with new recruit Neser and solid from the Sixers and Stars.

Rank halved.
