Australian Premier League XIII

Yes, we need that win!
Finally our top orders starting to find some form, and that whirlwind innings from Collingwood really helped boost our total.
Our bowling was again a mixed bad, but good to see Johnson and Watson find some much needed form with the ball.
In all seriousness that's one of the fastest innings I've ever seen with cricksim, and it wasn't even on an excellent pitch. :)

What a terrible performance.
First stratplay fetches us a loss this season.
McDonald screwed up with the ball and the local players looked hopeless with the bat.
What hurts us most though is Geelong walking away with the coveted Bill Ponsford Cup.

I can't believe I'm up into third now, despite having what I would call a "bad" season so far, if I hadn't of seem the table.

Yeah, top 6 is a tight battle again. Sydney have flown under the radar so to speak.
 
Its Melbourne vs Sydney time of the season in their backyard once again.

Here's a bit of history between these two teams:

Season-1: Sydney won by 2 runs at the MCG
Season-2: Melbourne won by 4 runs at the SCG
Season-3: Melbourne won by 5 wickets at the SCG

Season 1 at the SCG is my favourite APL game EVER. You were what? 7 out of 7 then KP's pies won Sydney the game haha. Although Callum's team were actually Brisbane in that season before they transferred.
 
LOL,yeah.
And we looked much stronger in those days.

So,Cameron White, Mitchell Johnson, Kevin Pietersen, Daniel Vettori and Nuwan Kulasekara have represented both the franchises.
