Except it keeps the season alive, without it there would be 4 teams with nothing to play in the last 6 weeks of the comp.

There are too many grade cricket plodders as there is. The talent is barely there to support 8 teams let alone 10.A 9th and 10th team would definitely help the competition feel less repetitive.
They need to be merged with the Stars. Who knows may get a competitive side with 4 or 5 from the Renegades, 4 or 5 from the Stars and some decent Internationals.Gades need to be relegated
I reckon that is an XI that could compete against MI or CSK, but then we got club cricketers in there as well that are trash.Finch Stonis Maxwell Larkin Harper Cartwright Webster Nile Richardson Boyce Zampa

I lose interest 3/4 through the comp.
Definitely but CA are about the money and getting Sydney/NSW more titlesI reckon that is an XI that could compete against MI or CSK, but then we got club cricketers in there as well that are trash.
Less teams, and we get better quality cricket
Yep got to replace Cartwright Larkin Webster Harper, would potentially look at a Wicket Keeper bat (Baristow), All rounder (Stokes), pure batsman (?)Bairstow, Stokes, Rauf as internationals
Why would the Victorian based CA want Sydney/NSW to get more titles?Definitely but CA are about the money and getting Sydney/NSW more titles
did you see the way they gifted the shield to NSW a couple of years ago, or the way the big guns always return around finals time, or can't have Gayle but you can have druggo HaleWhy would the Victorian based CA want Sydney/NSW to get more titles?
Gifted a shield as in were top of the table when a pandemic hit? A more appropriate comparison would be when Victoria were given full points v NSW when the SCG was deemed unacceptable but the same was not done when the MCG was deemed unsafe v WA.did you see the way they gifted the shield to NSW a couple of years ago, or the way the big guns always return around finals time, or can't have Gayle but you can have druggo Hale

They had 80,000 in 2016. That's just off the top of my head

People seem to forget that these blokes being called up are still around the 150th best cricketers in Australia. They're the equivalent of about the 10th best player on each AFL teams list. We just don't realise as there's no international comparison for the relative quality of the AFL.Scotty Boland was once a Grade Plodder.
Look at him now.
Players have to start out somewhere.
Or straight from Milo Cricket to the big time, you reckon?
Too many games, plus it went from being on Channel 10 who did great job of broadcasting it to fox/7That was an awesome game to be at, the atmosphere was electric.
Somehow in the following 6 years they've managed to fu** it up.
In saying that, covid hasn't helped.
And what do you do about that? Most of the gimmicks in the comp were supposed to be measures to keep competitive games happening.Willing to look beyond crowds due to Covid and the natural hestitation that most people have at the moment (not looking for an argument on this). One of the big issues outside of player talent (which is woeful) is the lack of competitive games. Have had a squizz most nights and there have been a lot of games that are over by the 8-12th overs.
I would consider myself a cricket tragic, but in recent times I seem to have lost the connection to the game that I once had and despite a local lad playing in the BBL and got my side I have little or no interest in the BBL were once upon I time I would have watched every game and seen 2-3 live each year. There is not 1 player in the comp I want yo go see vs once upon a time Warne, Hussey, Pietersen etcWilling to look beyond crowds due to Covid and the natural hestitation that most people have at the moment (not looking for an argument on this).
