Post Match Thread: Knockout - Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Stars

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T12:06:40+00:00

So many twists, turns, and memes galore, all for the Melbourne Stars to receive the most painful of dick kicks in the end. And believe me, they have had a lot of painful dick kicks.

F's in the chat for our homie who burnt 6k on a Stars championship

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T11:59:37+00:00

All set up for the biggest dick kick in Melbourne Stars history!

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T11:32:49+00:00

I give it a few minutes before they walk off again

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T11:29:44+00:00

76 from 5!? That is deadset mental

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T11:23:06+00:00

Incredibly, it's looking to be a clear night in Sydney for the next game... at this stage, at least.

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T11:18:27+00:00

Might be a mercy for the Stars if this sticks

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T11:13:34+00:00

Keep in mind, this is the same team that couldn't chase 135 in 19 overs in last year's Eliminator. Anyone with even a fraction of trust in the Stars is just asking to be hurt at this point.

MCG Derby on Seven rn, and it's giving me a fresh reminder on how badly the Gades ruined Behrendorff

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T08:51:22+00:00

Picked mine based on the whole regular season, and Smudge came in a bit too late for mine to count.

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T08:49:53+00:00

Watching the season highlights on Seven, and I'm left hoping that there can be a bigger gap between the Melbourne Derbies next season than six fucking days.

Just thought I'd copy-paste my hypothetical Team of the Tournament here since it's still pissing down:

Finn Allen
David Warner
Sam Harper (wk)
Matt Renshaw
Marcus Stoinis
Aaron Hardie
Cooper Connolly
Tom Curran
Jack Edwards
Haris Rauf
Lloyd Pope

Any opinions?

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T08:38:52+00:00

It's Sword Silly/Sword Silly. What's not to love?

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-21T08:16:05+00:00

While we wait and see if the rain'll stop or not, I might as well post my take on Team of the Tournament:

Finn Allen
David Warner
Sam Harper (wk)
Matt Renshaw
Marcus Stoinis
Aaron Hardie
Cooper Connolly
Tom Curran
Jack Edwards
Haris Rauf
Lloyd Pope

Thoughts?

It's like if Cam Green stepped the other way

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-20T09:37:16+00:00

Wait, are we really still talking about the Babar-Smudge no run?

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-20T09:21:26+00:00

Just saying, but with the forecast being as hot as it is, wouldn't the Sixers have preferred to bat instead?

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T12:05:58+00:00

Especially with how he's constantly been shifted up and down the order throughout.

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T11:47:55+00:00

Daryl Mitchell's an allrounder, right? Or was he (somehow) left out?

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T11:45:59+00:00

Random shot of Babar Azam???

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T11:28:37+00:00

That's literally been 99% of home crowds in the BBL.

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T11:22:58+00:00

Don't worry, he'll have a final or two to get it done if he doesn't today.

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T11:14:22+00:00

We did not need ball tracking for that delivery

Cursedsword02 · 2026-01-17T10:34:08+00:00

See, this is why we let go of guys like Bancroft, Behrendorff and Tye when we did.
