Team Thread Crocodiles Team Thread

[Frodo]

D4E has a couple of very busy weeks, so has asked me to put up this thread.

Last season was a good one for the Crocs but with no silver

This year we can build on it.

Guys, Please confirm you availability for this season.

New players are encouraged to apply for a spot (and a medal or two)

 

[Equus]

I'm back for another season!

OD captain still okay with you?

 

[Equus]

I'll gladly accept the responsibility.

 

[DoubleO7]

I'd willingly play for the Crocodiles again.

 

[peterss]

Im in again.

 

[hougie]

Chuck me down. I'll be back from Costa Rica/London by the start of March so expect my activity to jump after that.

 

[Frodo]

Two new signings guys

Please welcome

Stengleins_a_Champ

and

Alberton_Magpie

 

[Frodo]

With the team pretty settled, I think we need to move on a bit:

For a start, who's in charge of supplying the booze?

Over on the other Channel Therbs was wonderful, but he's retired

How about player of the season, in both forms?

I'm prepared to be on the voting panel but maybe it should be 3 of us.

Any other thoughts? Donut batter of the year? Worst purebowler average?

I reckon that this may be our best season, we need to screech at the lowly pretenders in each game.

CARN CROCS.

Dunno about the B&F Frodo, we always try to get one running and it always falls apart by mid-season due to the amount of work involved in running it.

If we do one, we need just one person casting the vote. Preferably someone different for each form of the game.

 

[peterss]

First game for the season and I'm pumped as the OD captain!

I'm testing out the WK at batting spot 7 - I found that when a WK bat at a lower position, they tend to make more run as they hold the tail if the batting order collapses. So I would like to see how it goes and if it works with EddieSmith's sim.

Either way, post away and good luck this season.

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

Good idea Equus.
That worked for me a couple of seasons ago. I also found that the sim was less likely to put a pure bat in to bowl. Almost as if the sim didn't look past the wk when looking for bowlers.

However, last year that tactic failed me a couple of times and I ditched it. Possibly prematurely.

 

[Equus]

We'll see how it goes but if the current batting order is strong and we don't get to see A_M bat, we'll try it again.

 

[Frodo]

I'm happy to do a MOTM thread and do the voting.

3, 2, 1 for each game and separate tallies for OD's and tests.

OK?

 

[Equus]

That should be good.

 

[Equus]

Argh!!! First Round loss. Not the result that I wanted.
Batting order needs to be shuffled around and such.

A_M managed to score 33 runs at 7th spot. Our second highest scorer.

I got a duck.

 

[Equus]

 

[Frodo]

I think average is really ER

 

[Equus]

Ah good point. Will have to change when we play the next game.
