7552 in SC
4864 in official

Having the wrong DGW's hurts (Kingston and Sanga only playing one) and not planning for byes with donuts also hurts.  Anyway lessons learned for next year.

In SC have to trade Maxwell, Marsh, Cummins so those three trades taken care of this week and Chris Green has a bye, Hopefully no donut.
Trades:
Cummins to Narine
Marsh to Christian
Maxwell to Perara
Pietersen VC loophole
No donuts if all play but mediocre bench cover with Sanga, Kingston and Pierson. No Bowling coverage.

In Official Lynn, Maxwell, Marsh and Cummins have to be traded and Sixes and Thunder have byes with another 3 players involved so will be more than likely wearing another donut.
Trades
Maxwell to Perara
Marsh to Pietersen
Lyn to Finch
Pietersen VC loophole
No donuts if all play but Sanga only bench cover.

Ranked 250 odd for the week with 1,068 in SC.

Up to 4.5k  :)

Damn you got me :) 407 for me!

But I'm in a really good spot this week in SC, have used only two trades and can use the 3rd for loopholing

Quiney, Hilfeanhaus on the bench, with donuts on the field. If either of them fail, Lynn becomes McCullum or Cummins becomes Steketee.

Will also put the VC on Pietersen

Hopefully there is no selection dramas to screw up my nicely laid plans haha

Despite two donuts my SC rank went from 1447 to 678! In Official I went up a few to 771, which seems to be where I'm stuck :P

About 140 points man! Fair way but anything can happen with byes and ODI players. Dont think I'll win, but top 10 would be cool!

;D guilty haha



Wish we had some indication whether Sangakarra was getting a game this week. Hoping he doesn't so I can use him to loophole (freeing up a trade and allowing me to loophole the bowlers too). We won't know until just before the last game, so I think I'll need to hope that Short doesn't go toooo massive against the Gades in that final match.

Surely you have a Thunder or Sixers player to loophole? I am using Cummins for loophole as I had 4 players in the ODI side and with the bye he offered a nice loophole right up till the last game.

Agree on Bartlett there is some talk that Reardon may be the one to go. Buchannan a little unlucky but place had to be found for Mills.

[elephants]

Buchannan getting rested I believe after such a long injury layoff

Maybe the game time is clashing with a modelling gig he already had scheduled  :P

12th January:
Hobart Hurricanes: Tim PAINE (C), Dan CHRISTIAN (VC), Cameron BOYCE (DVC), George BAILEY, Stuart BROAD, Hamish KINGSTON, Ben MCDERMOTT, Sam RAINBIRD, Jake REED, Kumar SANGAKKARA, D’Arcy SHORT, Beau WEBSTER, Jon WELLS
Rainbird, Reed in for ROSE, TAIT. Rusty gets his wish of seeing Tait dropped, surprising to see Rose dropped too, teams generally use spinners at Docklands. Maybe Short will get some overs now?

[fanTCfool]

Liam Bowe getting a debut tonight, not good news for other Liam, O'Connor, dropped from the Strikers.
