These rounds just keep whizzing by, double header today with Hobart taking on the Thunder in half an hour and later on tonight Brisbane face the mighty Stars.

Got a fair few playing today (M.Hussey * 2, White, Birt, Wright, Hastings, Dunk, Cutting, Gannon, Vettori and Bird), hopefully they can all share some big points.
 
jiska78 OMG Dunk as Capt! :eek::thumbsu:
Bloody cracker move. Had to be him, Birt or Dougy but I chose Dunk purely due to his consistency. A lot of people just look as averages which are really useless as it only takes one big score to distort them. Dunks scored 87, 16 and 40 (and now 96). A lot of the Hurricane averages are false because of the inclusion of the first washed out game. 120 odd from him, doubled, and still 3 innings to play :thumbsu: :hearts: :rainbow: :D :p ;) :eek:

Edit: Damn. Out for 96 off 54 balls, huge but disappointing. What an innings. Being in my team aside, the guy really deserved 100, fantastic innings to watch.

I got told to remove it by the powers that be. Apparently a new policy after complaints from sponsors. Pretty disappointing, we all had a lot of fun with them last year, but understandable; need to keep the sponsors on board or none of us would be here :cool:
 
Gee wow Gingy, your opponent has no Thunder or Hurricane players except Mr Cricket :confused: :eek:

Some bizarre strategies going on in that league. Early close losses will cost me :(
 
Damn Hussey out early.
Yep. That will hurt a lot of other people :). My opponent has him VC to Wright as C. He'll have to make a big call in the next 4 hours.
 
Oh great. Douggy gets an economy of 5 but because the thunder are so pathetic, the game never gets to the final four overs for his second spell so no bonus, except the game ending catch he took. Was sorta hoping he'd drop it and then bowl the next over :)

I'm aiming for 1000pts this week. On 326 with 3 players played but they'll play again, so 11 players left :)

I was tossing up between Doug-the-Rug and Laughlin all morning. Kept tading both in and out, ended up going with Laughlin even though I know nothing about him other than he bats higher up the order (#8) than Doug. 80 points from 1 of 2 games thank you very much! :)

Good call mate. He's been on my watch list but Dougy impressed last few weeks. Wrong choice by me but Dunk covered by decision and then some :thumbsu:
 
Remember Douuuuggggggggyyyyyyyyy has one more game to play!
Can't see him beating Dunks score..

Bloody Lynn. Out for 10. Guys destroying my dream of highest round score. FFS. Better take 4 or 5 catches.

I'm going shit, everythings going wrong. Hussey as captain, Lynn as new recruit failing and doing FA, Kiewswetter being a spud (so getting rid of him next round for Dunk), Bollinger only 12 points. Meh! :rolleyes::thumbsdown:

Only shinning light is new recruit Birt with 58 points. :rainbow:
 
(so getting rid of him next round for Dunk)
Get on the Dunk bandwagon...

Actually.. Wait.. JM.. Dunk.. That's it.. I'm trading him out.. ;)
 
Why the hell is Cutting at 8 and not 7 or even 6?? Bizarre.


Understand Hopes being ahead of him with the game situation, really should have been batting ahead of Sabburg.
 
No Vettori.. Hmmmmm..

Just gonna put this out there; Maliga doesn't bowl, he throws as hard as possible. Makes Murli's action look normal, the fact Malinga is allowed to throw like that is an absolute disgrace to the game of Cricket.

Yeah I'll curse Dunk by getting him in next round.

Everyone who has Dunk or who is thinking of getting him in you've been warned! :eek::thumbsu:

Vettori had an epidural in his back before the game, unfortunately he didn't quite get there. In other news he gave birth to a baby girl last night. Vettori and baby are both doing fine. :hearts:

Re: Malinga, yeh I noticed on a couple of side on replays yesterday that he was clearly chucking it for all he was worth. I don't recall him doing it in previous years, at least not so blatantly obvious. Has lost a yard of pace and is trying a bit too hard with his 'effort' ball to get it over 140km's to me. :thumbsdown:

Holy crap??? Guess he won't be playing cricket for a whole with all the multi-million dollar media deals coming his way..

:D
 
I thought it was round 5:oops:.Left finch on the bench I thought i would give hodge another crack thanks for that one.......>your gone.
Finch won't be playing again in league matches. Only back for finals, assuming they make the finals without him.
