There's a decent chance that Richo's unavailable for most of the summer again next season, Behrendorff's always an injury risk, Tye isn't getting any younger and frankly I'd be comfortable playing 4 quicks and relying on Agar, Turner and any other part-timer for spin on most wickets. I'd be giving Kelly a decent offer. Morris is the one I think is most likely to be pinched.
 
Matt Kelly as well unless he somehow gets guaranteed games in and around Pie, Dorff, and Tye.
Jhye probably won’t be playing many BBL games next year. Reckon Kelly would have got just as many wickets as Tye has this year if he had been given the same no of matches.

They're gonna have to, he's out already. Super-sub has worked beautifully.

Between that and how late they held Clarke back, I'd say the Stars were tanking if I wasn't familiar with their general level of competence. Are CA committed to the international player draft next season? :think:

Word on Clarke is that he's gassed after yesterday. The plan was probably to have Maxy bat more than 2 overs.

Clarke still got symptoms of covid. He’s passed the mandatory isolation period but you could see him last night in the interview - was absolutely cooked. Does not look healthy at all.

Morris wanted to come back to WA.
Signed a 2 year deal.
Can't see him going anywhere TBH.

Had the pleasure of listening to this game on SEN, omfg, some of the worst commentary I have ever heard, Darren Berry was awful.

You missed Brett Lee blaming the whole result on a minor mix up of batters being at the wrong ends.

Over. And. Over. Again.

Shouldn’t the umpires be overseeing this matter? It’s unlikely that the players were trying to pull a swifty, but even if they were, it’s the duty of the umpires to regulate these things, like the number of balls bowled in an over. It’s the umpires Lee should be having a go at not the players.

Stars also missed it. I suppose it's difficult at Kardinia Park when both ends are known as the Geelong Trash End.
 
So basically displace Australia’s best batsmen(currently) so you can accomodate a fringe player. Uzzie was awesome and should stay but he has to be the one that needs to be flexible. Plus Uzzie has way more experience opening that Lab has

Agreed A5, on both counts.

You can't reasonably go from lauding Carey's first test performance to hating on him two tests later. Give him a series at least.

You can't displace our two best batters to add in someone not deemed to be in our best 6 only a few weeks ago. If you want Ussie in one of Harris or Head have to go. And you can't drop Head. Which means you bring in Ussie to replace... Harris as an opening batter.
