On my phone so couldn't post but I'm seeing 90% chance of rain at the wrong times for GC and Canberra on the overview. 40-60% on the detailed version.
Sydney showing 70% morning/early afternoon on the overview. Still possible it rains into late afternoon. Hopefully they can still play a game even if it goes later into the night as it's a 3:30 pm time slot.

Re the Vc debate, I vc'd Carey and I’m grabbing it, it's not huge risk this week for a few reasons:
- It's week one, game one so you don’t have to worry about trades yet.
- You’re probably starting plenty of Scorchers DGR players who will all play next round so you don’t need to worry about trading them out.
- The next round is only a DGR for the Strikers so if you’ve pre-empted that by starting a few this week (as I have) then it's a no-brainer to trade out your non playing players for Strikers next round in their DGR.
- You've gotta remember that scores in this format fluctuate wildly from the averages at times so it's still easy for a quality DGR player to score a couple of 30's, a lot of it comes down to luck, eg who bats first, how the opposition fares, catching opportunities. Grab the 130's and run if you can.
I’d definitely think a lot harder about it after round one and how it was going to affect my planning/trades.

That's my train of thought too and I've only been playing around with combinations of tonights game since early today. The weather has me spooked and played a big part in my decision to bypass Brisbane.
I really like some Gades picks...Nabi, Christian, Wildermuth I see as being very well priced for DP players and Shinwari may be a tournament gift. I'm only a little disappointed that I've missed the obvious Pattinson, but thats cricket.
I see my team as really well set for next week with 4 strong Adelaide selections, and I am probably looking at Short to become my 5th.
Setting up my bench I have looked towards GW3, notably Henriques, Edwards and 1 of McDermott/Wade as WK2 to give myself flexibility on Carey's bye.
