R5 has concluded. Who’s happy and who’s filthy with what went on this round?
Previous post: R5 Underway …. Again
Next post: Trade Talk after Round 5
MelbourneTrackClub: STEVIE J IS OUT! Replaced by J.Caddy. Subs: Ben Kennedy (Coll) and Josh Hunt (Geel)
Yiorgakis: Birchall could be a great rookie pick up in a few weeks
The Fanatic: Birchall you can get the *&$% out of my team and you don't even get to keep the jumper!
Eagling: Me, after round 4, contemplating the fact I had Grant Birchall from the beginning:
Me, watching Grant Birchall's scores now:
Eagling: Grant Birchall 1 Supercoach Point to 1/4 time.
Duck: Bradley Hill is OUT (corkie), Brent Guerra IN.
MJ: Hamish Hartlett scored 153 last year against the Blues, including 26 disposals, 9 tackles, 3 goals. A similar outing would be nice!
PA: Dons v Lions
No late changes
Subs:
Howlett (Ess) Mayes (BL)
Eagling: Biggest shock of all is that none of my Supercoach League opponents have Matthew Priddis. A most surprising statistic...
Eagling: Thanks, Deano. I was listening to the match on the radio and I felt that, as with Carlton and Port, we tried to kick ourselves out of the match at every turn. Still, a win's a win and it was a great effort; especially with the knocks we suffered through the match. Wondering if Shuey will be looked at for a behind-the-play hit.
On the Supercoach side, Cox didn't kill it as I expected him to, and Nic Nat won't fall as much as I'd hoped, but I'd trade a slight Supercoach benefit for a win every day.

Not to bad considering all the injuries and the couple of donuts i got this week.
Hopefully i don’t fall to far back on the overall rankings *85th overall
I’ll let you guys know where I’m at tomorrow morning, might concede a few spots.

Was on target for possibly 2250+ early on but got let down by a few premiums, and low scores from one or two rookies, all up happy with the score I got though
Very happy with…..
Dangerfield, GWS rookies, Boyd, Pendles, Deledio
Would have liked a bit more from…..
Goodes, Adcock
Expected a lot more from……
Kreuzer, Goddard, Bartel, Franklin
Rest had pretty standard scores
Won 5/5 league matches, sitting in the top 8 for all of them, in the top few and undefeated in a couple of the leagues.
(3/5 leagues are made up with mostly SCTers)
Been looking at some scores others got and hoping I can move up a fair bit in the rankings when they are released tonight, currently sitting 19,127 in my rookie season

Guys, I know that I shouldn’t burn two trades at this stage but I’ve gone 0-3 so I need to act. Plus the appeal of pendlebury in the discount bin is too much to resist.
I have 91k in the skyrocket. To do this I am trading out Shaw and clay Smith. Assuming pendlebury goes for 600k, I have to pick a cheap defender to choose.
I am thinking either Paine, Neale or Wilkes. (OR DELANEY as a doughy.
Can you steady my ship in these rough water. (Only got 1858)

I think if you are 0-3 in your league then it’s fair enough to use up some trades up try and win some games and get back into it. That said, you now need to figure out if you bring in a non-unique to neuteralise their high scores or go a unique to try and jump ahead of the pack.

Thinking I will get the dunces hat this week. Very, very ugly.
1661. One donut. Yes you read correctly. Disgusting. Needless to say I lost all 4 games. Lost by 313 pts to the boss. Only players from this team I’m happy with (this round) are: Lids, Bugg, Pendles, NDS, Shiel, Cripps, Pavlich & Martin. Magner did really well despite the mid range score. Goddard as Captain was a huge mistake on my part. My heart said beforehand NDS/head said Pendles. Argh.
1820 for SCTTL. Happy with Lids, Bugg, Clarke, the entire midfield (665), especially pleased with new recruits Hayes (130) and Maric (the mullet, 103) and Christensen.
Thank god my actual footy team got the 4pts. More pain to come this week though, we’ll be lucky to lose by 50 points against the hawks on Sat if they start the 1st half of the game as they did last night.
Back to the drawing board

1756 – Played 5 short with Ablett, Birchall, Sandi, Shaw & Porplyzia missing from my starting side.
Fortunately had Swan as Captain with saved me from total disgrace. But not selecting Shiel as my emergency for Ablett correctly cost me 2 league wins.
Long way back from here.

Looking at my league score the only people who would’ve done well this round are those who ahve spudded it up in rnds 1-4. I will be curious to see how this effects my 3000th overall spot.
1917 with Swallow as captain.
* GAJ and Shaw missed
* 2 fwd doughnuts (what happened to the porps?)
* 1 def red vest (Ellis) and 1 fwd red vest (Smith)
Stoked with Dangerfield (141), Deleidio (129) and Martin (112) lifting this afternoon to make the score less terrible. Also happy with my rucks of Giles (114) and McEvoy (106) plus Shiel (84) finally lifting to an acceptable standard.
Please come back Gary. We need you!!

From North vs GC:
> Hunt will get looked at for contact on Swallow and someone else whose name escapes me
> Wright and Wilkinson will get looked at – i saw Wright attempt to throw a punch at one point, not sure if captured on film though
> few wrestling fines may get thrown around too
…. but can’t rememer either of the Swallow’s doing anything, please fill me in. Hugely curious both from a SC perspective and a North perspective.

I thought last week was carnage, this week was worse. Four donuts on the field really hurt (3 were late withdrawals – Birch, Hargrave, Porp). Also in the dog house – Goddard, Buddy, D.Smith (sub but with poor DE), and M.Primus for not selecting J.Redden. Bring on next week!
I am really happy with Dusty (although I would have liked more time on the ball in the last quarter) and I wish I had the guts to pickup Cotchin from the start. He is a gun! Also pleased with my rookies, Bugg and Toby Green in particular deserve a mention. BTW I know Magner has been dubbed the Barlow of 2012 but maybe that is premature … Magner avg 79 while Bugg avg 84.
Lastly well done Goodsey on a great day. If this is your slow start I cannot wait to see your second half of the year.

Wowie! So much carnage. Injuries to left of us, red vests to the right, and here we all are stuck in the middle.
Its a long time since I had a sub 2000 score, probably back to my rookie days. I can’t take anymore in game injuries. This week it was the Eski. FFS. Where will it end?? I can’t remember ever how so many in game injuries in so few rounds.
Amazingly, managed to sneak past RB in the LOEC1, and beat the top team in my cash league (who WAS ranked 36) rather comfortably in the end.
