Really didn’t want Sams to dominate today, would’ve got him in if not for needing to loop Clarke. Oh well. Dooley on field over McDermott would’ve been nice too…

 

[Aussie_boy]

**** off Sams. There goes any chance of me having a good round.

 

[TheRednWhite]

Sams 4 wickets now, caught and bowled....this actually can't be a coincidence anymore. It's honestly incredible

 

[TheRednWhite]

* off Sams. There goes any chance of me having a good round.

yep...when one guy you don't have gets 20-25% of your total score it's hard to have a decent week

Hurts when I would’ve gotten him in and captained him too if not for Clarke last night. Oh well.

Actually I lie captaincy has nothing to do with it but still

 

[Plugger35]

Sams with 4 wickets, should have backed him in as my captain.

Got a feeling my captain choice Hardie will fail now just to rub it in.

People trading out Sams are crazy. You don't trade out players with good roles who have played a couple of bad games in a row in this game, you actually do the opposite. Especially when it's the highest averaging player over the past few seasons who bats at 5/6 and bowls 4 overs (as long as the opposition don't chase down the score in 16 overs or less).

Wicketless for three straight games (don't think has ever happened to him before) and one score above 10 with the bat all year, he's mega due.

He'll be my captain if my VC fails.

Called it. Even turned down Marnus' 66 as VC to give him the C.

Law of averages boys.

 

[NSWCROW]

Went Wade capt for the POD

Finished equal with short

question for you: has Sams been bad enough last few rounds that he is due another good score next round? According to law of averages, I think he is due another good score to even it up? Asking because I'm bringing him in

I wouldn't be expecting back-to-back 3/4 wicket hauls but he's still definitely due with the bat and doesn't go wicketless very often if you look at his history. There's a reason he's the best fantasy player in the game.

 

[TheRednWhite]

Tim David 113 on the bench, no E

100+ score on my bench was the last square to tick off on my bingo card this week. Thanks Tim!!

Great, looking forward to it

The secret to BBL SC for me is to go off your gut then follow advice or recommendations on social media feeds. This round i got sucked into some bad trades from Wicky on Twitter.

 

[Tso1967]

7/631 Sams

Inglis, Bancroft, Tye, Abbott tp

 

[Plugger35]

Looks like there might be some rain on it's way in Sydney as per usual so I've decided to switch the C from Hardie to Philippe just in case Hardie doesn't get a bat later on if it rains.

Brave call captaining Philippe against the best bowling line up. But then again he is one of my traded out bats this week so he is bound to do well. Nice pick

 

[TheRednWhite]

Rain also scared me a bit. Had an extra bowler so had to bench one of Tye, Dorff or Abbott. So I benched Abbott. Dorff hasn’t looked likely for a wicket, hopefully some junk for captain Tye

Well he's made it past 20 at least, no run rate bonus for him yet though.

 

[TheRednWhite]

Tye captain and wicketless

Fitting end to the round really

Silly me, I thought that was the end. No…Bancroft out for 1. Abbott wicket, the one I benched. That’s the end

Simply cursed

 

[TheRednWhite]

No wait there’s more!

Abbott gets another wicket and it’s my final bat! Hardie also out for 1

Hahahahahahah that’s actually funny

 

[Aussie_boy]

Hardie McDermott and khawaja averaging 1 between them…. At least he got out to Abbott

 

[Plugger35]

I dodged a bullet switching my captain from Hardie to Philippe just before the game.

 

[TheRednWhite]

Scraped past 400…all out
If anyone has copped more than me this week just give up

-Lynn 22
-Jewell traded in for 15 after 3 great rounds in a row previously
-Tye captain 23
-Hardie 1
-Bancroft 1
-Head traded in for 15
-McDermott 0
-Khawaja traded in for 2, thankfully on the bench
-David 113, stuck on the bench
-Dooley (E) did well, had to bench a bowler…scorchers bowled first and potential rain so benched Abbott (even when I win with a good E, I still lose)
-Traded out Philippe 64 + fielding points

I get amazed every day but I don’t think even I could top this week

 

[Aussie_boy]

Not sure what was going through my head fielding Hardie, Inglis and every other batsman over Dooley. Got suckered in by recent higher scoring games. Today has killed off any chance of a high finish.
