This is the guy who won it twice. Even the pros get it wrong:



Still had Wildermuth in his team, so not a total loss.


I wouldn't call him a pro. Winning bbl supercoach doesn't take skill. It is all down to luck. He lucked out twice. This is a flukey game. You just need the right batters. Like, whoever had Renshaw and Wildermuth will win this round. It could easily have been McSweeney and Wildermuth. Too many variables. It's a luck game.

Whoever is outside top 500 overall after round 2 probably has 0 chance of winning. Guarantee someone in the top 1000 after rd 1 had both Renshaw and Wildermuth and either Connolly or Allen. That has set them up

That wasn't a bowlers game, just about every bowler got smashed but at least Bartlett took a couple of wickets.

Wildermuth got smashed too and only took one wicket but he made up for it by smashing a ton when he batted.
More chance of bowlers getting smashed and not getting bonus economy than batsman based on alot of grounds this season.

Really struggling to see good bowlers in this comp : Xavier Bartlett, Ellis, Jhye Richardson struggling to keep less than 8 runs per over for instance. A ground like the: GABBA, Hobart or Perth - based on the first 6 games , bowling sides will struggle to contain- even at the death.

That might answer part of my question tonight, not sure to keep Bartlett VC for Round 2 given he scored 67 points last night.

I have never rated Ellis in the Big Bash. Good T20 bowler but not a fantasy T20 bowler. He was overpriced at 150.

All fantasy games require luck, but winning twice and consistently being up there has to require some sort of skill

Game can swing wild so being ranked low after Rd 1 or 2 can turn around pretty quickly with one good captain POD

I went from outside 10k about halfway through the year 2 years ago to into the top 100 (and a pair of socks and free KFC)
 
I picked Munro as my VC so now I need to pick a captain from my DGR Thunder players Warner, Bancroft, Shadab and Sams.

It will probably be either Shadab or Sams being all rounders.

Warner would be tempting but go Sams or Shadab. I would lean Sams. Didn't Sams bat higher in the first game?
 
I traded Philippe out for Bancroft, he better make a good score, no wickets for Captain Sams either but at least he took a catch.

I have still got Edwards too who got pushed down the order and barely got a bat, a lot of swings and roundabouts in this caper.

So happy I benched Philippe so I could play Bancroft.

Also i traded out Babar now that’s winning.

I always seem to make the wrong moves.

I really dislike the double game rounds and wish every team played once every round.
 
Edwards will probably outscore my Thunder players even after they've played two games, only Shadab got a decent score.

Hussey said he made Shadab captain, he is right into the BBL Supercoach as well as the AFL Supercoach, he knows his stuff.
 
If one thing goes to show, loading teams with double game players is not the right strategy. I think no more than 6.
Im planning for the long-term. I too had 6 on the field this week for the double players.

Took the VC off Bartlett for Shadab which ended up being a risk-free play despite Shadab scoring slightly lesser points. At least I avoided Daniel Sams.


Chris Green getting 2.0 overs was a tad surprising.

I also captained Shadab.

Was shitting bricks when he was on -2 after the 1st innings.

Thank god he made some runs and has a 2nd game.

Will watch the Thunder game in the double closely. If Green doesnt get as many overs as Shadab or equal, I think you can play 1 of those 2 going ahead.

Shadab getting 3 overs batting higher than Green, and Green getting 2 overs is concerning for Chris Green Supercoach owners.

On the ENGIE wicket, I was convinced Green would get 3+ overs tonight.

Pitch didn’t seem to spin as much as normal either.

Passing on Billings and Renshaw big mistakes this round.
 
not looking good for a game tonight, what are peoples plans with their canes players?

i’ve got clarke who can cover owen, and curran for ellis. but with them locking out at game time regardless i guess we might not have the chance to pivot. watch it be a 5 over game lol

Most people should be in the same boat so it might not matter too much if you can't cover all of them or it ends up being shortened.
