And pies

You probably forget he played for the sixers

 

[Moonwatcher]

Petter Siddle how could you

 

[Moonwatcher]

Strikers losing NRR here

 

[greatwhiteshark]

The Stars are the Gold Coast suns of the BBL, or maybe even Fitzroy.
D Grade outfit.

That’s 2 piss poor efforts from bazley, no doubt got the shits up because he didn’t bowl

Define played

When one looks at Tim Paine's wife, he is winning off the field. He's not got his 1st win as a head coach of the Adelaide Strikers.

Perfect Mitch Marsh audition by Bazely

Can’t be bothered bowling and can’t bat

Chris Lynn - "more importantly, the Stars (Spuds) are winless before Christmas".

They gave the Stars the hard fixtures, because they are supposed glamour team . Sixers, Renegades and Heat are going to be in the finals or thereabouts. Its a horror draw for them.

No excuses tonight - with that batting lineup they should have won easily…but once again they took the gas

 

[hutchy31]

Well, I hope the strikers miss out on run rate. That’s brutal from Short, being taken for 11 in the last over by nos. 10 and 11. Pathetic.

Just D grade?

Ultra generous the fact they bring a 40 plus year old Siddle back…

 

[Plugger35]

Stars 0-3 and early favourites for the wooden spoon.

 

[Whiskers]

The Stars get the Sixers twice, Renegades twice, and a game against Brisbane at GABBA in the run home. On this form , they are lucky to win 1, and there is every chance they could go 0-5 in those games.

And yeah I agree with you, Strikers didnt play that well today but the Stars are in a bad mental space right now. Just down on confidence. There needs to be a cleanup of this squad by the start of next season. Too much dead wood being held onto from previous seasons.

Who’s the deadwood being held onto here? Cartwright? Rogers? Not much really.
Duckett, Webster, Curran all came in and good players. Milne, Warren new to the side.
Maxwell and Stoinis are international players.
Siddle was recently a striker, hardly his fault.

Nice trolling from Chris.

Did you forget what happened last night?

Don’t rule us out either now Konstas isn’t available

Makes absolutely zero sense when you consider his wife vs the woman he lost his test career for.

As I’ve mentioned before, there bowling attack is one reason they will be lucky to win a game

 

[JimmyBC]

Lloyd just called out you nasty social media types from the other night!!

 

[NYRB]

Hussey and Gilchrist thought the Melbourne Stars would chase that down at the change of innings.

The Stars need to play the remaining 7 games, and determine who wants to be there next season.

Im going to say it now, there needs to be a whole cleanout. Siddle, Cartwright, Sam Harper, Tom Rogers, Joe Clarke, Brody Couch, McKenzie, Joel Paris, Steketee, Campbell Kellaway, Jonathan Merlo. Harsh to say this- none of those guys would get gigs in other BBL sides. We have to remember this squad once recruited the likes of Spiceman Fletcher and Nic Maddison. No clue in the direction of hiring players.

Blood some Victorian youths.

To be fair to Stoinis, he played alright tonight and this season.


Changes need to be made, otherwise we will keep seeing this year in , year out. I am staggered that there weren't changes end of last season.

Surely Maxwell and Rig care enough to fluke 1-2

 

[ep2018]

Stars were unlucky not to win a title in the early seasons and now are looking like a spoon team with zero titles.

Leave Fitzroy out of it - we got shafted

Not a Stars fan but its getting to a stage now, where its a concern carrying the franchise who underperforms year in , year out. Feel a bit for the fans- and from their crowd attendance of 17k the other night in their first home game, its clear they are disenchanted the way this club is going.

Sam Konstas when he got his 50 the other night against Strikers, showed how proud he was by pumping the Thunder logo. None of these Stars have love for the club, I repeat None. Maybe Maxwell- but lets remember he was a former Renegade and has already accumulated millions worldwide. So for him, its pretty much him unwinding his career. You struggle to see who the next leader to take this club forward.

Peter Moores is the first one Id be looking to sack and then go from there.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Kellaway in for Rogers and bat him up the order and see what’s he got 20/20 wise
