BBL Match 22 Perth Scorchers v Sydney Thunder 3/1 2045hrs @ Perth Stadium

[cats_09]

Seemed to take ages for the medical staff & the cart to get out there - looked like Warner trying to signal for them, the umpire calling them also and then a third player also trying to get the cart out

Were they holding off on the bringing the cart out until the medical staff got out there or something?

 

[cats_09]

What happens with Sams now, obviously won’t be batting , do the thunder get the 12th man available to bat?

Definitely - concussion sub will be activated

Potentially for Bancroft also who will have to undergo concussion test you'd think

 

[fnerd]

Looks like continuing on which is fair enough (provided they have available replacements but that’s genuinely deflating for it as a contest.

Main thing is both players welfare

Get Andrew Maher off the tv, he isn’t a doctor and we don’t need his opinion on every thing and the smallest things possible to try and sound important

 

[cats_09]

****.... dont show it again ... no need for it

Who's showing it?

I switched over to Fox and that don't seem to be replaying it

 

[MC Bad Genius]

Who are the commentators on Channel 7 tonight? Talking about whether or not Bancroft can come back on. WTF dude. Read the f***ing room. No one cares about that, we just want to make sure he (and Sams) are alright.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Old mate on the phone to the bookie there making sure they get the info first?

 

[NYRB]

Not sure who the break favours here, given Perth were in a Power Surge.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Hahahaha Dan Christian is up

Can he bat lol

Yeah, stating that he has moved his fingers is not exactly comforting or helpful

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Hatcher will come in I'd say.

Can they use Christian as a batting sub or is he only allowed to field?

Can we replace Gilkes anyway

 

[ep2018]

We should win easily from here I think, Thunder would be in all sorts mentally.

Channel 7.

 

[nobbyiscool]

I know this happens every week in footy codes.

But does it feel kind of like the bloodied corpses were just dragged from the field so the show could continue?

I'm not suggesting the game should've been called off... it's probably more an issue with the broadcast and the lack of info, it feels very sudden that we're back playing again.

Doubt you would have the numbers for that but I don't think he's much good.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Perth will want to get a move on this over.

 

[Andronicus]

Did Hatcher's eyebrows fall down to between his nose and upper lip?

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Connelly ramping.

 

[Andronicus]

Umpire feeling the room and not calling the obvious wide.

 

[cats_09]

Channel 7.

Cheers, I rarely watch any sport on 7 unless I've got no option

There's some things you don't need to replay and that's one of them

 

[pacemaker]

7 are amateurs, Fox all the way. Cricket shouldn't have left 9.

 

[norway blue]

That’s a crack

How hard is it? Just say something like:

"For the sake of the players' families, we won't be showing any replays or making any judgements about what happens next for either of them. We hope for the best for them both and we'll give you an update on their health when we hear anything new. For now, we're just going to talk about xyz ..."

And then just shut the hell up.
