Season 2: First Class Shield (Discussion Thread)

[R.Griffen]

Top of the table clash. Sayers vs Richo

[Scrads]

It's ridiculous how much I can't get my team right. My 'best possible score' is consistently in the top 2-3 each round but I just don't name the right players! Grr!

So....I don't have a captain or vice captain playing.

Great, when they are both in their squads t neither plays.  :P

[R.Griffen]

How does Cameron Gannon, Ryan Duffield and Jake Reed all miss the same week?!? Duffield would have a field day using the swinging ball

[PowerBug]

Pretty tough for reed to replace Pattinson, Boland or Tremain :-\

Pretty tough for reed to replace Pattinson, Boland or Tremain :-\

Strike rate of 57 in the last match for Reed vs a team who batted for 151 overs is worth a spot imo

Round 7 Progress Scores: Stumps Day 1
Q Koalas 96 (6) vs NSW Platypuses 265 (6)
ACT Cockatoos 105 (6) vs NT Kangaroos 377 (6)
T Devils 421 (5) vs SA Wombats 324 (6)
WA Swans 76 (2) vs V Possums 97 (6)

Nige I swear if you lose to Labuschagne and Pattinson... Number in brackets is number of players each team has this round. Scroll up for the ladder :)

The NSW captains this season have scored before doubling: 94, -10, -12, 94, 19, -8 (Amazingly all the +ve scores are Agar and all the -ve scores are Ferguson)
The NSW captain (Patterson) after Day 1 this round? 108!! Scrads you've finally worked it out!! (Still 3 Days left though so I've probably jinxed it now)

If only I had the courage to not only strip him of the captaincy, but to also drop him for Lehmann! Haha

[Nige]

If we lose do lose, bad things will happen. Start fearing the worst.

[R.Griffen]

Thanks Henriques, Tassie just keep winning

Round 7 Progress Score: Stumps Day 2
Q Koalas 246 vs NSW Platypuses 347
(QLD: Milenko 84, Burns 72; NSW: Patterson 216, Moody 83)
NSW looking like picking up a win to end off the season for both these teams.

ACT Cockatoos 435 vs NT Kangaroos 600
(ACT: Nevill 203, Holland 113; NT: Mackin 226, Finch 127, Bancroft 124, Cartwright 114)
Not the best lead in to finals for the Cockatoos, a loss here sees them slip to 4th most likely. A win and pending other results they may end 2nd. NT finishing the season all guns blazing but too late after their 0-3 start.

T Devils 779 vs SA Wombats 456
(TAS: Henriques 630, Richardson 117; SA: Sayers 274, Bailey 126, White 74)
What a game! Looked like a close one after Day 1 but Henriques just kept batting! Now it's the Devils game to lose. Sayers needs to get lots of the wickets on offer tomorrow for the Wombats to get back into it. The Devils will be hoping Kane Richardson steals all those wickets.

WA Swans 173 vs V Possums 227
(WA: Pattinson 101, Labuschagne 73)
The Possums top scores has 61, lowest scorer has 27. If the Swans had a captain this week it'd be serious trouble for Nige and Pk. They should still find a way to not lose this though. Surely.

[Torpedo10]

You mean if Valente played like he was supposed to?
