WHAT to do with the Sydney Thunder?
The Thunder remain the one dull spot in the shining light of the Big Bash, pushing its losing streak out to an embarrassing 19 with a 73-run loss to Hobart.
The team in lime green where restricted to 94 by the Hurricanes in Hobart, its lowest ever score and two runs less than Hobart Hurricanes batsman Ben Dunk scored by himself.
Even the Thunder's AFL neighbour the Greater Western Sydney Giants won one game last year, and that was with a bunch of pimply kids who only reached puberty a couple of pre-seasons ago.
Some of its performance against the Hurricanes was farcical _ a vital sitter grassed off man of the match Ben Dunk when he was on 68, some shoddy bowling on a tough wicket and a comical run out that saw two batsman mid-pitch looking confusingly at each other on way to its sixth loss straight loss this Big Bash.

The Thunder won its opening two games of the new Big Bash back in 2011 _ and has not won a game since.
Fast bowler Dirk Nannes, who has played for Australia as well as a host of other T20 franchises, said morale remains high but you can't beat experience.
"A form thing means you've got ups and downs, well these guys are still wet behind the ears,'' Nannes said.
"You can't call it form because they haven't played much cricket.
"There is not much first-class cricket amongst them apart from Huss (captain Mike Hussey), maybe Ussie (Usman Khawaja), there is not a lot of people who have played a lot of games of cricket.''
Hussey, a legend of recent Australian cricket, was brought into help fix the situation.
While he has done his part of the bargain, being the second leading run-scorer before yesterday's game, even the weight of lifting the Thunder appears too much for the captain, charging Ben Hilfenhaus to be caught for two in the third over.
"Once he's out, there is not a lot behind him,'' Nannes said.
"He puts a lot of pressure on himself in that regard but what do you do?
"You can only deal with the squad list we've got and the guys who you are in the team with have to pull their weight and unfortunately not all of us are pulling our weight.''
