[Coach Bombay]

Klinger - opener will always get a bat
Harris - opener will always get a bat/one of the best t20 players in aus
Finch - opener will always get a bat/one of the best t20 players in aus
Marsh - i think he is ok at this level
Maxwell/Doropolous - Runs/wickets always a contribution
Botha - Runs/wickets always a contribution
Haddin/Paine - both cheap. will pron go paine cos haddin is a dick
Faulkener - runs/wickets
Cutting - awesome batter against the redbacks, hopefully this can continue/gets wickets

[Coach Bombay]

Christian is so badly out of form i couldnt pick him.

Do you think Richo will play much with Tait, Botha, Putland, Boyce etc bowling

[bd u15 09]

Yeah I have just changed it up. Been looking at it all day wanting to change but I finally have.

Got Wright in for Christian
and
Herrick in for Richo.

Frees up another 30 grand which means I'll be able to bring in Samuels next round for Forrest!

[bd u15 09]

Also Klinger in for Wells just for this week and see how it goes

[Johno6]

is the league full?
i cant seem to join

[Hondo]

So no-one starting Warner and then trading him out for say Gayle in round 2?

[Hondo]

Same here

Just tried and couldn't join

[Hondo]

I have my L plates on here hence the questions:

Are people targetting Pollard or Samuels? What about putting one of the West Indians on your bench to start so you have them for next round. I am thinking of starting Pollard on my bench for round 1.

[bd u15 09]

I have a feeling that one is full and not sure about the other. You can always start another one with you two and some celebs and you might get a couple more at the last minute make a team.

I think your allowed unlimited trades Hondo and wasting a 100k on a bench player is probably not worth it when you can have a Hussey in there and then trade him for a Gayle next round.

[Hondo]

Yeah it's just that I already have Hussey

I was going to run with Hussey and Hopes as all-rounders round 1 and then switch Pollard in from the bench for round 2.

Given that in round 2 I would be getting Gayle and then I wanted to leave a trade for any obvious bolter I missed.

You only have 2 trades per round for the first 7 rounds then unlimited for the last 2 rounds

[daysofourlives]

So no-one starting Warner and then trading him out for say Gayle in round 2?

See above , exactly what im doing

[daysofourlives]

We have 10 in the fox sports one, i think that one is unlimited so should be able to join that.

Looks like the Bigbash one is capped at 8 maybe, but it says i can still invite people to join

[Johno6]

i think im in fox sports one

both sites take so long to load n stuff up for me
so im just gonna leave everything as is.

is there an app at all for these?

[daysofourlives]

Any chance of the teams having to name their 11 or 12 a day or so before the game?
I have been looking everywhere for a team list for tonight but can only find a squad.
I guess G.Maxwell isnt playing tonight as he is playing chairmans match

Perhaps the ACB should insist on this as a bigger interest in the fantasy side of the game can only be good for bigger crowds etc. How can you possinly pick your sides not knowing who will play. Will the Strikers go with 1 quick and 3 spinners.
You have to read so many different articles to find out who is unavailable it really is poor management from the ACB

This is what I found so frustrating about BB Fantasy last season.

You get used to AFL where all the teams have to be named before a certain time.
