If it's in Melbourne, be interesting to see how big the travelling support for Hobart is. Logistically the easiest place to get to for us. And pretty much everyone in Tasmania has family and friends living in Melbourne, so a pretty big expat Tasmanian population living there. I like to think of them as Tasmanian economic refugeesBrodders17 said:

Great win by Gorgeous George and the team last night.
Can one of you cricket boffins please confirm whether when the ball hits the helmet behind the keeper that it goes dead. Bit of an incident tonight in junior cricket where a kid was run out after the ball hit the helmet - they were attempting to run a bye prior to realising the ball had hit the helmet.
I’m not a boffin but the question intrigued me. You would have been quicker googling than posting but here it is
Yes it is dead.

Amazing game. I thought the renegades had a few chances to take the game away from the Strikers (e.g. after each of those two dropped skied catches) but seemed to put the queue in the rack, thinking they'd done enough damage for the over or something.
Like using the 'slow it down' hands when your team has kicked the last 3 goals. Momentum is everything and dropped catches are a gift.

Thanks Roar. So the score should have been six - 5 plus the run they were completing (they had crossed).RoarEmotion said:I’m not a boffin but the question intrigued me. You would have been quicker googling than posting
