Clearly having more than three bowlers is overrated.

I too blame the bowlers.

Terrible 4 days of play Trolls

First innings was very average with all their batters being given too much latitude lots of starts. We were lucky no one had gone on to ton up. Shithouse.

Second innings was trash after a bullshit lbw ruined our momentum. Kept our necks in it with our lower order.

Third innings was brilliant but we just couldn’t dislodge DemurePrincess

Fourth innings we chased alright with lots of mediocre scores but no one really went the distance. Ultimately the lower order really ****ed it up for us when the win was there to be had.

All in all, **** this shit

Nice melt

Three bowlers don't get tired?

So can we pick 2 bowlers and, 8 pure batters and a WK?

Need two all rounders.

7 x pure bat
1 x keeper
2 x bowling allrounder
1 x pure bowler

New meta.

Thanks for the week, Trolls.

Bad luck, Wests. We had the better of the contest in the second innings but just had too much to do in the back half to come away with the win. Good to see sausageroll, BRAB, Proper Gander and Headless all getting starts to give us a chance on day four.

Round Two is just around the corner and a chance for us to regroup in the early stages of the competition.

Go Wests!!
