How’s the team doing so far this round, Coaches? I’m 3 players in, 224 scored and my captain hasn’t played (3/224/N).
Gibbs just scraped in with a ton but both Mitch Clark and Jarrad Waite were disappointing.
Who’s rocking your world this week? And who’s in the gun for next week?

Yeah, I’m happy I bought the goose in.
It got me thinking, is there a point, where you would redefine a cash cow to a stayer, who you can rely on for a healthy score?
Any thoughts on this people?

It would be unlikely that a rookie/cash-cow could produce consistently good scores, especially the younger ones who might start well but then fade as the season progresses.
Last year I remember using far too many trades early on and ended up keeping Rich for most of the season, which served me pretty well. So if you’re not wasting trades I reckon it’s smarter to cash in on them.

So much for the theory that Brown would start the season slowly. With scores of 130 and 171 he might not be this cheap for a while. I know it might mean 2 trades to get him but is anyone else thinking of picking him up?

He is in bloody good form, isn’t he? Fev is taking some of the defensive attention away from him, but, I wonder whether I would lose too much to acquire him. I also wonder, if teams will really start to focus on him and thus let Fev off the leash. This might impact his scores.

Couldn’t agree more. I’m definitely wearing the dunce’s cap after blurting out the “slow starter” theory. Having watched him on Thursday, he looks awfully tempting. My “no early trades unless absolutely necessary” theory could be holding as much water as my other theories – back to the drawing board.

100/1/N – DPP has come to fruition here, moving Hodge to into the guts to replace Cousins which freed up Maguire’s spot in the starting 18.
Probably me just being slack with doing some research, but does anyone know why we had a Partial Lockout for Thursday night footy last weekend and this week we’ve got a full lockout from Thursday?
Luckily I scraped in with naming Farmer emerg. on my backline bench just in case Kennelly doesn’t come up, but if I’d left it to come back to today I’d be spewing!

I’m not 100% but my assumption is that it has to do with the fact that last week there was a Friday night game after a Thursday night start, whereas this time, Good Friday means that the second game of the round does not occur until Collingwood and Melbourne play on Saturday afternoon
Like or Dislike:

I’d have thought that would be even more reason to allow for a partial lockout, more time between the Thursday night match and the Saturday match means more time for sides to chop and change.
Can’t find anything on it in the Q&A section. The only thing I can put it down to is the fact that last week was Round 1, giving people that extra opportunity to finalise a side before trade rules kicked in.
But still, if you’re going to do it for one week when we’ve got a Thursday game, you should be consistent with it.

Well in argument I’d say all is fair in love and war when you have to travel to a different end of the country every second week to play the game.
A few extra dollars in the player’s pockets over a couple of home grand finals? I think the playing field is quite level in the Lions case…
West Coast would be the only ones rightfully complaining and they haven’t since 2006 and especially since drafting Naitinui. But I digress…

Hey everybody (and happy easter),
I think i may struggle this week to get over 2,000 points. At the moment I have scored: 885/10/N.
I had shocking scores from Jack Ziebell (23 points), Paul Medhurst (46 points) and Mitch Banner (31 points).
Hopefully the remainder of my team will score well. I still have the following players to play:
Backline: Hodge / Enright / Kennelley / Hunt
Midfield: Barlow / Abblett (Captain) / Cooney
Ruck: Sandilands
Forwards: O’Keefe / Higgins / Franklin / Dangerfield
What does everybody think? I would love to get over 2,000 points. My league think that the score I reached was a fluke (cause I bet most of the boys!)

Hi again guys,
My current score is: 1725/17/N (Gary Abblett).
I think reaching 2,000 points may be in sight, given I have the following to play:
Hodge / Hunt / Enright / Abblett / Frankiln

If you can afford it that probably won’t be a bad trade at all Leesa.
Geelong and St Kilda are Freo’s opponents in the next two weeks however after that it’s Melbourne and the Derby. I’d expect that Ballantyne will avoid all of the close attention from the top sides so it would be a safe trade.
Good Luck with the rest of the round!

Tippett, Hall and Hille were disappointing. Confident I’ll get over 2100 though. Selwood, Bartel, Mitchell, Enright, Hodge and Chapman to come!
Definitely thinking of trading Gram->Malceski and Tippett->Brown [Which should equate to 50-70points the next round].

I don’t even want to think about it! Shocking! 1409/17/n
I’m already weilding a bloody big axe!
Ball, Wells (yes I know!), Jolly, Pavlich, Harvey, Tippett.
I’m definately bringing in ROK. Always have him in the team, but for reasons best to known to my little finger, is not in this year. Think I will dump Tippet as he isn’t going to go to well while the crows are sucking, and they don’t look likely to improve until their injured players get some game time. And seen as all the rucks except Sandilands are going rubbish, will dump Jolly before the price crash and bring in Jolly’s Sydney replacement. Thoughts?

Lovin’ Seabs’ work!
Never really liked Jolly. Can tap it but then what?
I’m also wrestling with the Tippet dilemma – wasn’t really sold on him but picked him up for his DPP status.

Not having a great round. Made a couple of mistakes with my mid rooks in terms of who I played on the field but also had some woeful efforts (Tippett and Ziebs will definitely be getting looked at this week). Fortunately Rooey, ROK, Barlow and Goddard have kept me competitive. Should crack 2k today with Enright, Selwood, Hunt and Captn Gary to come but I’m not expecting big things out of Hodgey.

I’m half a chance to match last weeks score (2200) with Ablett, Hodge, Enright and Mitchell to come.
I’m certain Boomer’s game was a one-off while Hille will no doubt improve but I fear Tippett will be getting the axe for Kruezer in this week’s trade movements. The second I do that Mott’s look for a 150 effort from him next week!

Yaablett and Hodge to come. I need 223 to beat last weeks score, and that is possible. I reckon I can be satisfied with that. Hope Mottsy is wrong with his Hodgey call and am considering Tippy’s future with the club, maybe a straight swap with Kreuzer is the answer. Would I be correct in assuming that Tippy will need a BIG score this week just to maintain his financial value?

Now I know, just leave Gary as captain every week, I went with Swan this week as they were versing Melbourne (93), give credit to James McDonald for doing a good job on him. Tippett, Ziebell, Hitchcock and Robinson let me down. Ablett, Selwood, Franklin and Hodge today, hoping for 2100′s.

Finally Swan gets tagged and the Dees push the Pies right to the line. I know the whole team played pretty poorly but Swannie might get a bit more attention this year. I had him as my captain all last year and laughed at the freedom he was given.

Only 6 players to score over 100 this week. The chasm between the top scores and non performers this wk is huge. Trade time, but way too early to be thinking about offloading Hall, Tippet, Gray etc, just yet anyway. Those with itchy fingers thinking about pulling the trigger on Tippet, he should score well/monster undersized Carlton & Melbourne over the next 2 weeks, plus he’s MPP.
I Plan on cashing out Waite for Malceski and Scully for howlett/shuey, pocket the $230k cash and look to bring in another premium next wk, sit tight on tippet gray hall and waite for malceski to bear fruit.

2288………Can’t even crack top 1000 ( currently 1237 after nearly 2400 last week) Would you believe i left Mitch Farmer on the bench in the midfield…… Goddard and Hodge played in Defence, had Scully – 18, Trengove, etc play midfield…..AND had Waters and Maguire on Defence bench….!!!!! = minus 82..!! ( Maguire 6 better than Hodge, who plays Mid and is 76 better than Scully……..
Mind you, I have done that 2 weeks running….1st week I tossed up..this week, I stuffed up…….
Captain was 7th highest scorer last week….AND 8th – YES eighth highest scorer this week….
You blokes need players, I need a COACH……. might let my wife take over….!!!!

I played Banner instead of Martin this round a bad mistake on my behalf. 2288′s a great score though and who would have guessed that Hodge would only get 94 and Maguire 100?
I agree that Tippett must be traded he’s really been a let down.
