BBL|08 final Melbourne Renegades versus Melbourne Stars @ Marvel Stadium

[smasha]

Cmon Stars.

 

[smasha]

What a sook. Just wondering if he complained about barracking commentators every time Mark Waugh ever commentated a Sydney game? Or the entire Ch9 commentary team...

I have heard Jim Maxwell on radio,always likes to have a dig at Melbourne,definately wears a chip on the shoulder.

 

[SterlingArcher]

Should be a good batting deck. 160 at least for the Gades to start, setting up a contest.

Jim is the last person to chip anyone about bias..his NSW bias is over the top

 

[Kyptastic]

Walking up to the ground now, can see a lot more green than red amongst the lines

 

[Dez!]

Bloody hell Warne just go blow Stoinis already.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

The game hasn't even started and Warne's already sucking Stoinis off.

 

[Cleavy]

So with the Stoinis/Richardson rivalry, I guess it’s green Hulk vs Red Hulk.

 

[Gough]

I guess Jim Maxwell won't be indulging in the Fox commentary today

Come on Cleavy, you know Jim will be at home listening to it on his crystal set.

 

[Cleavy]

Can't believe Punter has Sean Abbott in his best XI for the BBL this season, he might have got 22 wickets but he gets carted a lot, especially in the death overs.

So Fox has had Lynn and Bailey in for Maxwell and McDermott with the bat, and Boyce ahead of Abbott with the ball.

 

[smasha]

Could someone answer me a question that is driving me nuts?

What was The Locker Room at Marvel Stadium originally called?

Without mentioning names, Warne had a crack at him.

Pretty sure it’s always been the locker room.

 

[smasha]

Pretty sure it’s always been the locker room.

No it was called something else.

 

[Gough]

Without mentioning names, Warne had a crack at him.

I'd argue that he's right, Warne does sound like a normal punter rather than a man with 700 Test wickets.

 

[juss]

Stars win this I think

 

[drd23]

Good start by Bird

 

[Scorpus]

That's a bad shot

 

[drd23]

Finally bowls a good ball and gets a wicket from it. Not sure it was really necessary for Harris to keep trying to go after Bird though

 

[Kyptastic]

Harris is not the smartest batsman going around

 

[rocker_oz33]

Harris you dickhead.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

That's a bad shot

The commentators said the same, yet if it goes for 4 it’s a good shot. Played the same shot 2 balls earlier.
Always a bad shot if you get out, great shot if it’s a boundary.

 

[SterlingArcher]

Harris is not the smartest batsman going around

Really dumb. 0/16 after 1.4 overs, two dot balls would be fine at that stage, but most likely you can tap it around for 2 singles and be 0/18...

Renegades a good side but some dumb cricket. You really could do well with 8 an over in the power play and that's what they were going at. No need to chase more big shots.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Mediocre with flashes of brilliance....

 

[Hamingja]

So many dumb batsman. You've got 12 off the first 4 balls off the over, what do you do, play a premeditated slog and get out
