BBL|08 final Melbourne Renegades versus Melbourne Stars @ Marvel Stadium

[HenrikLundqvist]

Is it too much to ask that they don't play that bullshit sound byte every time there's a wicket? Which shmuck thought that sounds good?

I haven't heard music that bad since the Renegades used to play Dwayne Bravo's song.

Every other league does home city grand finals

NRL don’t use SFS or Shark Park. A League would use Marvel, not AAMI.

What other leagues do is a matter for them. The AFL and NRL don't even have home grand finals.

The BBL would be foolish to take this away from the Renegades so a few thousand people can get in.

with Finch (previously?) out of form/touch, Harris had to play the aggressor. It just didn't work. You could argue they're both trying to find form.

Harris thinks he is above this bbl s**t because he’s a test opener now. Doesn’t treat the bowlers with any respect. Maybe the importance of a final will kick his ass into line and he will play a gem.

Says the Renegades and Marvel fan...

Even in the semis it’s home city, not home ground in NRL and AFL

Could you imagine them playing Collingwood v Essendon at Marvel? Sharks have to host Roosters at SFS if the meet...

Fancy the Stars to win this.

Collingwood and Essendon both play home games at the MCG.

I don't give a s**t about Cronulla.

I guess Jim Maxwell won't be indulging in the Fox commentary today

You've got to be somewhat kidding yourself if you think the game should have been moved.

Renegades finished higher, its at their ground. Thats it.

What a sook. Just wondering if he complained about barracking commentators every time Mark Waugh ever commentated a Sydney game? Or the entire Ch9 commentary team...

They players have had a rough start. Fire alarm at 2.30 this morning now the stadium is being evacuated.

Interesting semi finals.Warrell put the Stars on top early.And the Renegades dug them selves out of a big hole.It looked like the 6ers where heading for 200 runs.
Both of these clashes between these two sides where big wins for the Stars. Who are the better side on paper.Renegades what a win on Friday night.Think this is going to be a belter of a GF.Great wicket at Marvel last Friday.

One Maxwell is enough. His name is Glenn.

The hotel the teams and commentary teams had an alarm go off.

Be just a few players? Surely the locals don’t stay in a hotel

All the former players/commentators on ten had a foot in a camp. Mark Waugh commentated the Sydney matches, and was involved at the Thunder. But he was no different to Flem and the Stars, Punter and Hurricanes, Gilchrist and Scorchers and Roy and the heat.

Warne takes it to another level - and as Maxwell says - he doesn't always act like that.

The Melburnians don't but everyone else does I'm pretty sure which is basically the whole Renegades team plus a few Stars.

Anyone in the ground? How full is level 3 yet?

They were probably all out on the circuit at that point anyway.

 

[Bob Neil]

So it starts at 2.45pm Melb time? Is it on FTA TV?

 

[weetert]

I'll go Renegades with Harris MotM.

The MCG would have had 80,000 by now!
