Renegades on top? No chance, might do well early but once Finch leaves they have no hope as usual

I actually rate their side, get some momentum behind them and they should be up there. Yes they will struggle without Finch and don't know the situation regarding Bravo and Russell.

 

[Commissioner Gordon]

Think Strikers will surprise you mate, have a much better team then last year

Can't say i'm entirely convinced but hope you're right. Pollard and Hodge will definitely add to the batting but can't forget the losses of Reardon and Klinger, not entirely sold on Simmons. Laughlin another reasonable addition but apart from that basically the same squad.

Yeah i think how Simmons and his opening partner (Ludeman i reckon) go will play a huge part for us. If they can get us off to good starts we should be able to post some decent scores. I rate our bowlers

[Hamingja]

I'm predicting lots of runs. Bowling attacks are looking a touch pedestrian.

 

[JC Hawks]

8. Melbourne Renegades.

Why that low?

 

[eth-dog]

Why that low?

Dunno really. Had the top 3 as clear cut, then 4-8 pretty even and thought they had the weakest attack.

Bravo is a gun & anything can happen with Russell.
but how long will the WI pair be there for, the whole BBL season?

I am not entirely sure but I'm going to assume they are not as Pollard is going half way through to be replaced by Ten Doeschate.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

The Scorchers will slide badly I think.

Bravo has played in a number of BBL's but only ever for a few games

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Cummins most wickets, Badree best economy rate.

Badree will have an economy rate of 0.

Ruled out with a shoulder injury.

Oh, bugger! Thought he was a great signing at the time.

Didn't know about that, unfortunate. I know Floros replaced Buchanan in the heat side but didn't hear about Badree

Simmons loss is huge.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Simmons loss is huge.

It's more the unavailability of the Marsh brothers and NCN. Simmons will probably flop.

If we make good starts and get Paris back later in the tournament we'll do OK. Don't think we'll be in the top 2 though.

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

The loss of Badree for the Heat is huge, the best Twenty20 player in the world lost for Flintoff.
