Stars have shown little interest since locking away top spot.

Can be hard to turn that attitude around again too when the finals start!

Serious question... Unless you are betting on the game, do you really care if the strikers win or lose???

Absolutely not, couldn't care less and I don't bet on the BBL.

Yes, they have "Adelaide" in their name.

Their games are the only ones I have an interest in, and I think that they will win the comp now, they have the right mix of players to suit.

Losing Rauf is a huge kick in the guts for them, get Maxwell and Stoinis out cheaply and they'll struggle to post 150, they have no genuine quick that can nullify a team or intimidate.

They have an abundance of spinners but they could be fruitless on the wrong pitch.

I go to majority of the games and have enjoyed this year much more than the last few years, while the depth still isn't great in the comp the top end talent is much better this season.

Its a good night out at AO.

The Heat are f**king junk and I love it. I wonder if the commentators will interview Lynn again and have him apologize to their fans again, he should apologize to his teammates for another trash shot he played tonight and getting bowled by O'Keefe, who was awarded MOTM for his 1/20 from his 4 overs. That dismissal showed again how much of a joke he is, he is the most overrated cricketer in the BBL.

They are living proof that a champion team will always beat a team of champions, should be called the "Brisbane Ego's"

BBL wouldn't even cover loose change in his ashtray compared to what he'd get elsewhere.

Just having a family holiday on the Gold Coast I'd imagine.

With $1.77m to spend across the squad of 20 players is $88,500 each, obviously the last few on the list would be well under that, the big name imports well over that.

Even, even if AB was on $160k it pales into insignificance to his last IPL contract that was $2.25m.

Spot on LM, showing the family a bit of Australia after Xmas.

Players get more in the Bangladeshi Premier League.

That's where I think the Strikers have got it right to some degree, you only need a few stars to be successful and we've got our main 3 batsmen as home grown.

I’m sure the Heat are showing his family all of Australia as well.
All inclusive.

Forget what they’re paying him to play.
