BBL|07: Official Fantasy & Supercoach Discussion

[strikeforce]

Thanks mate,

You dont think feek can get another 28 and that would be near 60?

Oh yeah forgot they have another game. Could go down that way then yeah. But you have to find a Scorcher you like don't just get one for the sake of one.

Yeah thats the problem, Already got Cartwright, Paris and would need to get Willey and maybe a Voges but cant see him making any money or anything at all really for the double next week? Anyone else worth a look around $30k for perth?

[Rusty00]

Was tossing up between

McClenaghan vs Ahmed: picked McClenaghan which looked excellent after his first 5 balls, looked terrible after Ahmed's four overs, ended up ok (would've been better with both)

Fekete vs Nair: picked Fekete which ended up bad, and looks worse given how early Nair came into bat.

Had Watto VC and Buttler as well, with Maddinson on the bench.

Still can't decide the final make-up of the rest of my team. Still struggling for another cheap bowler bench option as I don't trust Paris' JS, which makes missing Sams and Nair annoying.

Paris probably has decent JS for the first few rounds, the Scorchers are struggling to scrape together 11 players at the moment

Marshx2
Bancroft
Whiteman
Dorff
NCN
Cam Green

All unavailable

I've seen a lot about Dorff and NCN being unavailable, but nothing confirming how long for? Even with those 2 out, Paris is still behind Johnson, Tye and Richardson in the pecking order so depending on team structure could find himself on the outer?

[PowerBug]

Klinger
Cartwright
Voges
Turner
Willey
Inglis
Agar
Richardson
Tye
Johnson
Paris

That's from the first page. They could still roll with all 4. The heartbreaking news about Klinger really means I have no idea what will happen with their batting. I imagine they are reconsidering the decision to go with only one International and are looking hard into finding a batsman to play for them.

[PowerBug]

Melbourne Renegades: Aaron Finch (Captain), Dwayne Bravo, Tom Cooper, Xavier Crone, Marcus Harris, Brad Hodge, Brad Hogg, Tim Ludeman, Mohammad Nabi, Kane Richardson, Chris Tremain, Cameron White, Jack Wildermuth

[strikeforce]

Is Voges worth a look now at $30k? Surely will come in at 3 with klinger out.

[NoButYeah]

Melbourne Renegades: Aaron Finch (Captain), Dwayne Bravo, Tom Cooper, Xavier Crone, Marcus Harris, Brad Hodge, Brad Hogg, Tim Ludeman, Mohammad Nabi, Kane Richardson, Chris Tremain, Cameron White, Jack Wildermuth

At a guess: Finch, Harris, Ludeman, Hodge, Cooper, Bravo, Wildermuth, Nabi, Tremain, Richardson, Hogg with Crone and White to miss

[NoButYeah]

Started well. 339/3. Watson c 242, Ahmed 85 and Buttler 12.

[Gigantor]

So I'm hearing that Cam Green from the Scorchers is available to play but only as a batsman

Will probably bat somewhere from 5-7 so doesn't have the best scoring potential.
Though scorchers have the DG next round, he is only 20k and a DPP.
Could be a decent bench option, only takes one good game to generate a bit of cash

Anyone think Wade will open? ATM have three WK/Batsman (Why does it say "Batters" on the site?) :o  I mean I know it's not real cricket and all but .....

Yeah tossing between Wade and Maddo loop now :P

You would have thought so but he batted at #4 in the 'Canes practice match with Short and Doolan opening. Bailey in at first drop.

With the way you have started I'd be inclined to bank the 47 but you might want to risk it for the weekly prize.

[Rusty00]

No Lynn for those who picked him

Thought it too hard to loop both Sams and Maddo, so did stick with Wade, also brought in Stoinis today after squads today, hoping Archer doesn't bite me now!

But still have Mcullum, Big Show, Bravo, Finch in my side. Really hoping on a high score this week. It was that one spot with Stoinis that had me baffled all week and still! So went with Stoinis after his amazing AUS form and given he said he wants to return to the national side via the BBL ;)   .......   ???

Almost spent the Stoinis money on NCN but given we don't know the Scorches teams yet :-\  guess this is why the fantasy BBL is such a great challenge! Keeps us occupied though :P

[tbagrocks]

STOINIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Macca gets the 60 anyway!

[Rusty00]

Why is Boland still bowling after 40 off his first 2 overs ???

[PowerBug]

Melbourne Renegades: Aaron Finch (Captain), Dwayne Bravo, Tom Cooper, Xavier Crone, Marcus Harris, Brad Hodge, Brad Hogg, Tim Ludeman, Mohammad Nabi, Kane Richardson, Chris Tremain, Cameron White, Jack Wildermuth

At a guess: Finch, Harris, Ludeman, Hodge, Cooper, Bravo, Wildermuth, Nabi, Tremain, Richardson, Hogg with Crone and White to miss

i highly doubt the stalwart of the Gades will miss and Ludeman will take his batting place. I have wilders and Crone not playing, they still have 20 overs before Tom Cooper who always bowls.
