Another team holding back the power surge until they’re into the tail enders.

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

Payne/Hatz took 4 of the first 5 wickets to fall. Scorchers making the right the calls with rest/rotation. Hopefully Richo back for finals.

Warner is absolutely garbage on the call to the surprise of no one.

 

[Agent93]

Excuse me. I've been working.

92??? AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!

In the name of efficiency, let's just schedule the regular match at Optus against the Sixers.

 

[RookiePick]

Hardie taking the long handle to Colin the Big Man

Really exciting to see the next generation of excellent test cricketers turned terrible commentators coming through.

 

[Agent93]

How many times this season have we had someone get out trying to finish the match with a boundary?

 

[Keys]

Danger game

 

[Ochre]

 

[Agent93]

Honestly, this was all a ploy to guarantee Matt Short the golden cap. Hardie / Inglis can't catch him if there's not enough runs to chase.

 

[Tugga27]

Danger game

On paper anyway.

 

[DanWCE]

Is that pretty much us locked on top of the ladder now, even if we cough up the last game? How much can the Sixers NRR swing with two games to go?

Run rate is irrelevant.
If the Sixers win their next 2 and we lose our last game we go to 2nd.

Sixers have a point from a rained off game

Fox just listed Cameron Green as the Thunder captain lmao

I challenge anybody to find a player who has played in every match and has had less impact than Hobson. He’s been in 13 matches and scored 106 runs off 80 balls, he doesn’t bowl, and in 5 matches he didn’t even bat. 4 of the other matches he faced 1, 2, 4 and 6 balls.

The only person he's holding out is Cooper Connolly. Even then, we don't need the bowling option, and he's probably a better bat at 6 should it be required.

To be fair, his fielding and catching has been good.
A number of times he has taken catches in the deep for key opposition batsmen.

He also hit a winning 4

When I was young I used to think Anthony Hudson was a bit of a knob. I think it was his weird head. But compared to the absolute twits who commentate Australian sport normally, he’s bloody amazing

Yeah he’s a quality fielder

Cardoons

The Hurcs couldn't chase 160 (including 3 overs of Matt Renshaw) with their much vaunted batting lineup.

So after being shit kickers for the first half of the comp, Brisbane are in a finals spot with a below .500 win/loss ratio.

Renshaw has been made to look unplayable recently

 

[Carbine Chaos]

If you're finishing 5th out of 8 sides you really shouldn't be qualifying for any type of finals.

He is, without a doubt, Mouth from One Tree Hill.
