3/737
Double: M Stoinis, T Curran (C), B Webster, H McKenzie, A Zampa, T Rogers, T Seifert and W Sutherland
Single: J Richardson, C Overton, J Edwards and S Abbott

Edwards and Abbott excellent on a single. Hopefully Overton joins suit as the last remaining player left on a single. Great start from Seifert and Sutherland to compensate for Rogers and Zampa.
4/828
Ecstatic with all SGW players scoring above 60. Initially had Allen and Thornton parked for next round but deciding yesterday to grab both Seifert and Sutherland meant dropping a Striker down to a Heat player (Renshaw). Chose to drop Thornton and grab him next round whilst parking Allen on my bench. :cry: Now means a max of 7 doubles for next round if I use a boost. Not many Short avenues I like, so Connolly, Benhrendorff, Thornton and ? to join Overton, Richardson and Tye.

One of my best starts in recent years in this format. Currently 4/841 which excludes Zampa's score of 8. J.Richardson, Connolly, Overton and J.Edwards as the singles on field. Curran started well as VC and Sutherland and Seifert have been great too. Misses are Zampa, O'Neill, Mckenzie & Webster.

Only other let down so far has been Allen's injury who was stashed away for 5 games in the next 3 rounds. Have 5 other Strikers and Scorchers players but one of them is Doggett so could be down to 4 dgw before trades. Would like to save a boost as unsure on trade outs but O'Neill, Allen and Webster if he doesnt bowl again seem like prime candidates. Would have to boost to get in M.Short but leaning towards fading again but the Allen injury makes it tougher, annoying.

I'm keeping Webster given the double again in round 3, surely if he's next (or close enough to) in line for an all rounders position CA would want him rolling the arm over.

Of course the injury to Hazlewood might see a change to availabilities.

The challenge for teams with a good start is finding high values players worth trading.
Take for example, would you trade Webster or Sutherland? One is losing cash with a double in Rnd 3, the other is making cash with a bye in Rnd 3. You could argue to keep either or trade either.
How do you get Overton, short, Inglis, Dorf this week? How do you get Abbott, Walter, Edwards the round after?

Edit: I forgot Maxwell as a Rnd 3 option.

Marsh only bowled 2 overs yesterday, on a day where one of Australia's main bowlers went down. With Hazelwood out, can't see them resting Starc (or Cummins) and they now have back to back tests at the end of a long series. If Marsh can't bowl, Webster becomes an option and based on what CA have done, he might not play BBL at all.

You can't get them all, particularly if you want to generate some cash for the back end.
