So I thought I would share

annoying? possibly
interesting? maybe, maybe not

Ghost ship? definitely not.

My dad (82) wanted to do his own team this year (without my help - maybe I need his)

He flew to Perth this week and forgot to change a few things in his team (nothing new). Sometimes I think it's strategic.

1001!

1 Star, that's right 1 Star!
Philippe captain! 9 players :LOL:

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry - that's my dad (82)

Love the Woosie Dad stories.

He needs his own thread on the site 😀

If he scores like that with 9 players and only one with DGR , just let him do what he wants

me: 1012, captained Maxy

Dad (82): I should've done that too.

me: How much did you make?

Dad (82): 1001, with 9 players.

me: what? did you captain maxy too?

Dad (82) Philippe, I forgot Strikers had a bye, so still have Khan

Can I swap teams ...

- Out: Kelly, Sangha, ...
- In: Hales, Turner etc ...

- Maybe Barteltt to Guthrie etc to fund it ...
- If he could squeeze in Bazley then I'd go that option first ...

Caveat: not sure what the make up of the BRI team will be heading forward ...

Got a trivia type question .... what is the highest price a player has reached in the BBL ??
Close.
Stoinis hit $346,500 after rnd.12 in BBL 07.
He'd scored 194, 115, 0, 0, 0, 199, 376, bye, 67.

I think only the 376 was a DGR.
He wasn't just batting well but also snagging quite a few wickets.
Batting he averaged 53.3, 130.6SR, with 49 x 4s and 11 x 6s
Bowling he took 14 wickets.
Dug through the archives from my first BBL SC season (18/19) and found these screenshots.

The legendary 376 from Stoinis was the perfect storm as he opened the bat and bowled at the death during the Stars DGR. Essentially this was the Daniel Sams/ Tom Curran role on steroids.

I don’t see these records (points and price) getting broken anytime soon! It felt like having access to a cheat code.

So with mills confirmed leaning towards getting him but leaves me with problems still got matt kelly and what to do with stars players i want to hold maxi and dont know bout curran injury and could be good idea to have extra bench player so my plan of darcy short might not happen in this round but if he goes big again i might not be able to get him

At this early stage it looks like (holding Maxwell, Clarke and Couch):

DreRuss, Curran, Zampa > Inglis, Agar, Behrendoff

Will leave me with:

Garton, Phillippee, MShort, Inglis, MMarsh (Nielson (E), Maxwell)

Clarke (Gilkes (E)

Tye, Behrendoff, Jordan, Baretlett, Agar (Connolly, Couch)

5 DGR players.

See how Gilkes goes in the first game and switch Nielson on (if needed) not ideal, but its the way it is.

Hoping for no suprises player availbility wise ;)

Was wanting to trade Clarke over Curran, but he has very little trade value, if Curran gets up could do Clarke to Lamichanne, but we will wait and see.

Round 6 will be interesting

Might depend on how many SGR of Curran (injury concern) , Marsh , Maxwell , Philippe , Rashid & Sams etc people can hold and field to be the differential.

Suspect Ellis , Lamichhane , Lynn , Mujeeb , Short , Wade will be all popular.

Don't expect Bartlett or Bazley owners trading them out before Round 6.

McDermott could be a interesting POD

No updates on Meredith.

No idea on Neser , Steketee or Swepson's availability

6-8 DGR players might mean benching some SGR premiums.

Well bye bye Curran. What’s peoples thoughts on Inglis V Behrendorff?
I thing if you can afford the extra 20k wihout to much stress then Behrendoff is the better option. I think he will be more consistent but may not have the potential ceiling of Ingils if he can get some runs quickly.

I for one at this stage will probaly get both, but at the moment I have Clarke as WKP so think Ingils will be a better option than Clarke, Clarke can sit on the bench, hopefully if he ever posts a decent score I will be able to loop it on to the field, but am not holding my breath.

Opportune time to use Curran's $$$ to fix Elliott

Out: Curran , DreRuss , Elliott

Backing Stoinis & Zampa to come good could be advantageous.

Plenty of options for ins , depends whether you want players for DG4 or are looking ahead to 5 & 6.

2 from Agar , Inglis , Mills probably works + someone like Lamichhane.

Then need to work out who you are trading out in 5 & 6 though as well.

Like I said yesterday may need to eat a donut or 2 one round to set yourself up better long term.

I think one problem you have is you cant get Gilkes out of the WKP bench. I think your other best trade out options are probalby DreRuss/Stoinis and Zampa/MKelly (if he is not selected). And then hope that Finch gets up and plays so you can have him as bat6 to replace Maxwell.

I dont really know if I'm much help, but the other problem you may have is if Curran does not get up. I think you may need to trade Stionis, DreRuss and Zampa/Kelly and hope all of Finch/Hughes/Kann play just to get numbers on-feild for this week and sort your bench out over the coming SGR's. With boland out I think it opens the door for Kann (maybe).

At some stage I also think you may need to get a BAT/WKP on your BAT bench to give some flexibility to get Philippee/Gilkes to be able to switch to BAT line.

Edit: I don't know., lol, maybe do what @Herbie66 said :)

Edit2: If Curran is out for a period of time, then you probably need to trade him this week. At least Zampa/Stoinis/Maxwell will play next round, so it may be a case of taking some pain short term for the greater good and holding Zampa/Stoinis/Maxwell. So that would mean your outs would be DreRuss/Curran (if out for a period)/Kelly/Elliott and I would be brining in 3 scorchers this week to maximise gain to cover the potential loss of holding Maxwell/Stoinis/Zampa this week.
