[Art Vandelay_]

Oh yeah baby. The real stuff is back finally.

 

[idel one]

Think the ladder needs updating - Qld in third I thought?

 

[eth-dog]

We should win this. Gonna be tough though

Ah cheers.

 

[idel one]

Ah cheers.

Thanks - sorry to make work I had just been looking at the ladder after reading FOX Sports preview which is why I noticed it

No problems. This is the first time I've posted the ladder after the BF look and feel update and the table code is different.

Is Wilermuth injured or is it purely because he was with the Renegades last week whilst the rest of the team would've resumed training for the Bulls? Seems odd

No idea, could not find anything in the news or social media.

Maybe they thought they preferred the extra spinner at JO (given it's more spin than pace friendly)?

 

[Cleavy]

probably strained his "drinking arm" at the Renegades BBL celebrations

 

[Crashy]

Has Chris Lynn retired from shield cricket?

 

[idel one]

Has Chris Lynn retired from shield cricket?

Not that I have heard - but I know he has talked on several occasions about focusing on white ball cricket until after the World Cup. Bit like Billy Stanlake - don't rule them out playing Shield cricket again but maybe not in immediate future.

 

[grimlock]

Updated Vic squad in OP.

 

[eth-dog]

Presumably:

Gotch for Harper
Siddle for Pattinson
Harris for Maxwell, with Maddinson to move down to 4.

Excited to see Mcsweeney more. In his debut in Rd1 against Tasmania on that Gabba green top he dug the **** in and made 30 odd off 160 while everyone else threw their wicket away. Proper compact technique, makes grade cricket and futures runs and is reasonably good with the ball too, took an 8fa in a grade match the other week.

Why Gotch and not Harper? Harper did nothing wrong in his last shield game

Why Gotch and not Harper? Harper did nothing wrong in his last shield game

Harper averages 17 from 10 matches, Gotch averages 31 in 16. Gotch is a far better bat in red ball cricket.

 

[eth-dog]

Incumbancy.

 

[year of the roo]

Gotch and Harper are such similar players that it really doesn't matter which one plays. I'm just glad we're not playing both.

 

[eth-dog]

We're back! Gonna watch the first session on the stream, hopefully win the toss and bat first.

Aaaaaaaand the opposite happened

 

[eth-dog]

Nic Maddinson in first slip, did that happen at NSW? corbies grimlock? Always thought of him as more of a ring or outfield player

 

[grimlock]

Can’t remember him in the slips ever.

Fekete and McSweeney 12th men
