Out watering the garden and a white cricket ball hit me in the back of the head. Thanks Maxxy.

Trust Maxwell to save an innings like that for when their season is over and there's zero stakes.

That’s probably the only reason we got to see it. If Gades win yesterday there’s no chance we see this today. He had the opportunity to go out there and just bat with no consequences

 

[smasha]

Stars are a bit like Richmond,oppo teams play their little leggies off when the Stars come up on the fixture.
Why I will not write off the Hurricanes.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Only 3 teams will have won more games than the Stars after tonight.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Maybe make a win 4 points and the boost 1.

 

[Voice of the G]

Maxi not be allowed to play real cricket that being red ball cricket.Biggest waste of talent I have known in real cricket.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Maybe make a win 4 points and the boost 1.

Interestingly we would still see the same finalists.

I really don’t think they do. The Stars just always crumble when there’s something on the line

Welp, I came home from Sporting commitments to see this.

Enjoy.

The heartbreaking things for the Canes is they could bat phenomenally and make 240 and they would still be nowhere near it.

Hard to even take the field chasing this, it's a piss take they know they are no chance.

Maybe make a win 4 points and the boost 1.

Or just do a normal bonus point rule (get the score in 16 overs or roll them for 80% of your score)

 

[Headless]

So. Did I miss anything?

The bonus point is not about rewarding performance, it's about keeping interest in lopsided matches alive.

Nothing important happened today.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

If McDermott does that 45 more times, Hobart win.

 

[Coasters7]

So. Did I miss anything?

Marsh cup back on today. 274 first innings, not the worst. Chaseable though

 

[CakeEater]

This chase is so slow my son has fallen asleep.

Thankyou Hurricanes!

Our biggest mistake was getting Dippenar out in that game lol

Remember towards the end of our knock, they turned one of the cameras around to look over the back of the ground.

There was the Saffer mascot sitting on his own, elbows on knees and head down on his fists, just totally dejected.
God my mum and i laughed.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Beau’s nudies

 

[Moonwatcher]

Herschelle Gibbs was plumb lbw early in that innings. Goes on to make 175.

 

[Coasters7]

Tom O’Connell or Stewie McGill?

 

[BACCS]

Very glad I watched every ball of that Stars innings live, just luckily happened to be at a sports bar for dinner and we were the last people there haha

 

[NSWCROW]

That went well

 

[Stig O'Hara]

The more I see that Evans catch from the right angle....reckon it’s the best.
