Sanga has been horrible, looking at him next round for sure, obe bonus holding Marsh is that i can grab anyone next trade period.

Yeah we could have kept Maxy as it turned out

Sorry guys I left the C on Hastings but there's still one game to go. KP could knock out a 100

How bad has Sanga been just quietly? We will all bring him in or back in my case next round though.
yepppppp, better bloody lift next round, it's my biggest game of the season with my closest mate (that does fantasy sports)

743 and 1530 overall here. I was needing a KP fail to move higher, but still made the Wright move with my C choice (see what I did there?!). I'm struggling with Hobart players to bring in...

hahahahaha 743 here too but I had KP Captain, 446th now, after a really shocker week last week I dropped a couple 100, any gain's a good gain from here... Hussey injury was annoying, had to carry him on the bench and field Wells

The Hurricanes I have are Dunk, Boyce, Christian, Sangakkara and Wells (Had Wells on the bench, and had Sanga+Dunk for a while so Boyce and Christian are who I'm bringing in)

I'm only going with 3 Canes. I remember last year chasing down a Canes double and had a round of disappointment. This round they have Perth and Adelaide then I think they have the bye in the last round. That said, ideally I have another but I can't afford a decent bowler so I have taken a cash cow in Agar.

Hastings/KP/Paris-->Sanga/Christian/Agar

Sanga, Lynn, Bravo, Gayle, Blizzard (Wright, Floros)
Dunk (Hartley)
Christian C, Russell, Behrendorff, Willey, Agar (Stoinos, Steketee)

Hastings and KP straight back in next round hence the cash cow pick given I expect Christian has a high BE and is overpriced but I think he's a must in.

Boyce C for me, Christian seems to get most points batting and he's against the best two bowling sides in the comp this round... I brought him in but not putting C on him (Partly for a bit of POD to my opponent)

Well this weekend really sucked all my Hobart boys blew with Sanga - FAIL, Christian - Fail, Dunk - STUNK, my team also included Hussey - FAIL, Maddo - ZERO.
As much as I was looking forward to having a rip at this format, I really can't get into it. There are just to much scoring down to luck, and as much time you put into it sometimes doesn't matter.

A poster on the SuperCoach Scores website is coming first and by his own admission he hasn't got everything right. He has however had his share of luck most importantly with nailing C selections all rounds bar one including backing in Paine last round.

As for me those same 3 Canes stunk and FFS I even flagged before the round how a Canes double can be frustrating like this. That said, Wells and Paine were good. The rest terrible.

480 for the round and dropped to 697

I had an average week too - 646, small gain to 1318 overall. I took Sammy (cos he's all I could afford) and he had his best game of the season...but got hurt and missed the 2nd game. Hastings getting a call-up to the ODI side is costly. I've stocked up on Stars guys (the ones who are left!) for this week; Handscomb, Zampa and Hilfy in for Hastings, Rainbird and Peirson. Tough game this one and the all-rounder change got me early. Lots of luck involved, you really have to predict guys like Lynn, Head and Christian going on runs and take all-rounders like Russell, Bravo and Willey from the beginning.

I did Handscomb/Zampa/KP in for Dunk/Agar/Christian

My team actually looks OK but that's mainly because I haven't now needed to get Hastings which would have been a problem otherwise thanks to Sanga and Christian dropping in price so much.

KP, Wright, Lynn, Bravo, Gayle (Sanga, Blizzard)
Handscomb (Harltey)
Russell, Willey, Behrendorff, Stoinis, Zampa (Floros, Sketekee)

Sanga has been a shocker, and I picked up Christian last week and well we all know how he went

Not sure how i'll trade yet, but i'll let you guys know just in case you may like to change. ;)

So trades I've made for this round are:

Christian>Head, Hastings>Boland, Peirson>Handscomb.
Got 4 Stars for the round but hoping Wright has a good one and i'll loop him.

Boland still with the ODI team I think? Certainly played the first game vs India in Perth. Hilfy, Zampa, Beer may be other options.

Out for me are Hastings, Ross and Behrendorff. Ins are Wright, KP and Zampa.

I was tempted to take Khawaja instead of KP but the double game made the decision for me.

I'm going with...

Wright, M.Hussey, Kallis, KP, Khawaja
Ludeman
Dre-Russ, Rashid, Willey, Watto, Tye

Not sold on that lineup yet. Dre-Russ my vanilla V, Rashid the smokey. Willey might be my C. Beware the Melbs weather tomorrow. What a shame it would be if rain impacted such a great tournament.
