Also I think for next season OD and FC we should have OOP penalties, seeing as we have something for the T20 comp. Might look into a little restructure of how we name sides. :-\

[R.Griffen]

who needs 6 players when you have the best player in Australia and he is also capt

Gotta love Torp's no name bowlers getting him points this round haha. Nicholas with a 50, Conway 3 wickets :o

[fanTCfool]

Sayers should be tracking alright, 3 wickets in the first innings and even chipped in with 30 odd with the bat.

[Nige]

Turner with a century. Almost played him over Trav Dean but Vic bias...

Round 5: Day 2 Stumps
Q Koalas 310 (Milenko 126)
T Devils 656 (Khawaja 414, Richardson 102)
After Travis Head defeated WA last week, it looks like Khawaja is gonna dish it out to nrich's Koalas :o This one is done I reckon

WA Swans 468 (Maddinson 240, Nicholas 142)
ACT Cockatoos 498 (Holland 200, Rainbird 103)
Close game! Jay has a player advantage but if Maddinson can repeat his first innings score then Torp might getting a win! I pickt he Cockatoos though.

V Possums 309 (Tremain 178)
NSW Platypuses 148
Scrads called it, his two highest scoring players so far this week are not even emergencies. Similar can be said for the Possums, their 2 highest scorers aren't named either. if Agar gets involved NSW have a way back, but the Possums for me.

SA Wombats 464 (Sayers 256)
NT Kangaroos 372 (Mackin 187)
A bowler shootout with bats on both sides failing. I'll be at the ground tomorrow cheering on Wombats' Chadd Sayers and not Kangaroos Ryan Carters, so I pick the Wombats to win this :P Shaping up as match of the round though.
