Game of the round imo

Tipped Sixers as I trust them more but won’t be shocked either way

 

[Taylor]

Does it end the Scorcher's season if they lose this?

Can that be said of all their remaining games?

Aye, Scorchers have had two good ones recently, can't be too far away from brain-fade bowling and batting collapses.

Still plenty of games to go. It’s top 5 remember

I hope the Scorchers do win as it means Roy and Livingstone have gone off

 

[Agent93]

Top 5.

Ugh. Next thing you know they'll adopt the NHL's loser point to keep the standings artificially close.

Or Jhye is Jhye and not Pie. Can live with the batters making 30-odd at 130, but do love it when the bowling is tight and wickets fall.

It was top 5 last season. Worked pretty well. Basically the IPL format.

Love watching Jhye just wish you muppets would play Kelly! If you don’t want him we will take him!

Deserves a shot given Dorff and Tye's performance so far. WACA are pretty careful on overloading fast bowlers since we've been regularly snapping them in half since before Bruce Reid days. I think Kelly might be on a bit of a rest break given the number of Shield overs he's sent down.

I have a feeling Perth are just hitting their straps, should be a belter of a game. If the Sixers win this they’re only a win away from finals.

Kelly, Gannon, Paris, Whiteman, Bancroft. They probably won’t hang around with us next year I wouldn’t think

Sixers to win for me.

Dan Hughes to continue his good form.

 

[NYRB]

How good is it to have live sport in WA? Been yonkers

 

[Crashy]

All teams would be hoping for a Sixers win

Hasn’t Hughes made nothing in every game bar the Stars match?

 

[Hamingja]

I don't know. I think you want to finish top two, top 3 minimum with the finals schedule. Just scraping into 5th is pretty pointless so Scorchers taking points off Sydney helps the Hurricanes, Stars etc.

 

[Torz]

Sixers elect to field first.

Love to bat first at Optus. Hopefully we can put up a good total.

 

[Hamingja]

Based on the other night you'd be picking the Manatee over Ball wouldn't you

 

[ROOTA#6]

Should be a good game this one, hopefully high scoring and goes down to the wire.

hope so...not sure why but I’m in the mood for a high scoring 6athon

 

[StingBitten]

All over for Scorchers if they lose. They do have some momentum and batting/bowling firepower. Would be an indictment on Voges should they fall in a heap again this season.

Whatever happened to Kurtis Patterson? He's on the Scorchers list, haven't heard him mentioned at all recently. Same goes for Sam Whitman actually.

 

[lozstar]

why are scorchers favourites? easy win for the sixers

Patterson is a horrible t20 player

At home mainly. It’s a toss of the coin.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Edwards the difference.

One of the finest BBL thingys in many a day.
