  1. GAJ covering me through for the W. Pity about Goodes, see what options present themselves as a viable replacement…

  2. Points arent up yet for syd/wc. Checked them out elsewhere so I am around the 2300 mark, probably about 2320.

    Considering Gaz’s score I am fairly disappointed, lots of guys putting up 60-90 with a few really carrying the team in GAJ, Cotchin, Joelwood etc

    Shocker of a decision on my behalf in not making GAJ my captain, gotta wear that one.

    Considering bringing in Griffen for Dangerfield but with a few trades left and the Buddy problem, I feel like I’m stuck up shit creek with no paddle!

  7. 2417/Selwood

    Suprised myself by my score as I was away for the weekend so I didn’t have the chance to put the VC on ablett which would have lifted me to just short of 2500, but can’t complain as I won 3/3 games and consecutive scores of over 2400.

    A load of players lifting the ton for me but special thanks to Hannebery, JJ kennedy, Selwood, Cotchin, Scott D Thompson, Rockcliff and of course Ablett all getting over 125 with an extra 6 players breaking the ton.

    Disappointing efforts from Duffield, Cox, Goddard and Swallow but not to concerned as I have just about finalised my team for the finals.

    Don’t need to say much more than ‘GAJ’. But I will 😀 A lot of 80s & 90s with only Gibbs, BJ & Massive failing below that. Second highest score of the year.

    Goodes jr gone for the year, so will now look at Heppell as his replacement. Will now have to keep Birchall who will be like a new trade come finals (hopefully! :D).

    This will leave me with 1 emergency trade for finals. Fingers crossed. Hoping to improve my ranking of 152.

  13. 2298/Selwood 1/5 League wins.

    Guess who wears the Crown of Fools. Is it Bryce Gibbs, who bombed out with 60? Is it Goddard. who missed the chance to go big v GWS? Is it Paul Duffield, who returned from injury with a score of 51.

    No, no and no. For all their abysmalism, there one was one dunderhead who darkened the shining light in shadow.

    Yes, the biggest dunce is of course, Eagling. All week long the VC was on Pendlebury over GAJ. I have no one to blame but myself. If I’d Captained Gazza, I’d have knocked Catta off in LoeC1. If, if, if, if only…

    Of course, no one will notice the other decision I went badly with. Playing Cox over Nic Nat and Lamb lost me 17 points, but I doubt anyone would blame me for not playing Jed Lamb.

    The one decision I got right was benching Deledio, who was well held by Crowley.

    At 5-10, I’m out of the LoeC1 finals race. Thanks for the competition, guys; it’s been a great ride. Now I’m trying to win the Minor Premiership in that league.

    Now onto happier matters.

    My ‘good friend’ Eaglet scored 2516 in SCTTL4 (Of course ‘he’ captained Gazza.) This is the highest score ‘either of us’ have ever managed.

    But as those that know the details of SCTTL will understand, ‘he’ can’t take all the credit.

    Happy with 4 from 5 league wins.
    GAJ will be perma cap from here on!
    Walker & M Murphy did well on debut.
    B. Goodes needing to go is a shame. Lachie Henderson will be looked at, however cheap d/f DPP could be good options as Griffin, Beams & Stevie J could be the game winners in SC finals.

    Having Ablett as captain was the difference between winning and losing this week. Simple as that. Having to cover Stevie J and Buddy with Macaffer didn’t work too well either……..

    Thanks to Catta for recommending that I chose Walker over Roughie.

    Devastated that I chose this week to put Pendles captain over Ablett, but what can you do?

    Zero triple figures from my back line. Goddard 69, Shaw 87, Gibbs 69, Ibbotson 58, Goodes 84.

    Dissappointed by Penles on debut.

    Swan could have done more. T. Mitchell – well, the fairytale couldn’t last.

    Cox 70, Nicholls 88 and (benched Nic Nat 78) are unacceptable.

    I was hoping that Bartel would kick that goal. For SC points and the win (go cats).

    I’ll take the 5 wins. Bad luck Blue Skins in SCT LOEC2.

    I could have been a contender.

    5/5 leagues.

    Might be carrying some injuries through the rest of season now. 2 trades left so will be only trading out season ending injuries.

    As such, this is probably the point where it all goes horribly wrong, as it looks like I have to hope danger comes back firing.

  18. Already onto next week… big problems ahead for Drewfl

    1. Hope he Buddy well plays next week…
    2. Goodes… thank you this year but new defender required
    3. Stevie J you goose… no good to me
    4. Any Danger we’ll see Danger?
    5. Jimmy B WTF! nervous wait on that bump… was at the game… not good

    More holes than a block of Swiss cheese… and with 5 trades left… plenty to think about between now and Thursday

  19. 2323/GAJ,

    3/5 league wins & lost the other 2 by 16 points total………..grrrrrrrrrrr!

    Happy-ish with my score but in saying that, Gibbs, Heppell, Swan, Minson, HShaw, Fyfe, Ibbotson, Cox, Priddis & Bartel all failed to raise the bat this round for Catta’s Clan. But what I’d like to add……thank you Gazza you’ve managed to put some respect into my score this week when lots failed me!

  20. 2425 GAJ

    Finally cracked the 2400 league!! Could’ve made more with the likes of Gibbs (AGAIN!!), Goddard (again), Ibbo, Cox (again), Bartel (again)… not scoring what they’re capable of. Probably can throw Pendles & Priddis on that list too.

    Honourable mentions to Dusty, Walker, JPK & Titchell (only scored 80, but he’s still a gun for a kid!).

    But a few stood up and went bananas… GAJ (goes without saying), McKenzie, Rockliff, Cotchin, Joelwood, Hannebery & JJK.

    If it wasn’t for my opponent placing the C on GAJ, I would’ve missed the 2400 mark, as I had the VC on Pendles and C on Joelwood initially!

    So overall… very stoked!

    4/5 league wins. cant complain there.
    however there are some players that need to have a good hard look at themselves before next week: nic nat, coxy, gibbs, BJ, roughy.
    another performance like that from you are you’ll be GONE.

    with the goodes trade
    T/U: ibbotson
    T/D: McKenzie

  22. 2278/Pendles

    A word of warning to anyone attending Metracon Stadium – you have no data service. After Griff”s 140 (VC), I deciding to role the dice with GAJ as I was at the ground and saw the moisture on the turf. For over 30 minutes I tried to get reception – bugger! I even walked about a Km from the stadium to try to change my C choice (Pendles). Total cost, about 150 points and dropped well out of the top 1000. On the up side, it was a total honour to watch GAJ play one of the best, if not the best, game of AFL ever. He was sensational – this coming from a Pies supporter.

    Too many disappointments to discuss. But Brent Staker – wow. Averaging about 112 over the last 3 and with very few trades left, is he a keeper?

  24. 2410/The son of God, shit round due to these duds: goddard, hep, GIBBS (again), ibbo, swan, priddis (116 DT WTF?!?!?), minson, bartel, cox, nicnat, ROUGHY whereas opp. in main league had 120+ scores from: hannebry, the hoff, thompson (NM), rance, beams, griffdog as PODs.

  26. 2351/GAJ via VC
    4/5 League wins

    Best decision for the week was benching Lids over Cotchin (didn’t know who Creepy would go to)
    Big thumbs up to Enright, Hanley GAJ, Joelwood, Cotch, Maric, Rockliff, JJK and Staker
    More needed from Gibbs – has done stuff all since I bought him in Rd 15 – 59, 69 and 60 is not good enough and Swallow Cox andNic Nat were poor as well

    Quite happy with that. Especially after missing GAJ.

    Concerns: Goodes and ROK (concussed in Q4).

  28. 2335/GAJ.

    Feel very unlucky to slip from 15th to 20th, but it’s not as bad as it looks. Actually gained ground on the leader; a small, but handy 27 points (322 total). Only 33 points separate 10th -> 20th, so any sort of decent week and I’m right back up there.

    Jarryd Roughead was very disappointing on debut with 69. It looked so promising after he scored the first goal of the match, but didn’t see too much of it after that, despite kicking 3.3.

    Down to 2 trades left, which will now be 1 as Brett Goodes has to go.

    The final trade will likely be NicNat or Buddy to a midfield premium.

    Then it will be a matter of riding out the season with no trades left. Bring it on.

  29. 2167/Pendles (first time I have taken C off GAJ this year). won 3 of 4 leagues.
    No centuries in the defence, and with Goodes now out pretty disappointing round for the backs.
    Had Nicholls on the field and benched NicNat thinking he may be a late out, payed off by 10 points. Cox and Goldstein not pulling their weight.
    GAJ, Selwood, Kennedy and Pendles breaking the 100, Swan just missing.
    JJK, Walker, Rockcliff and Staker holding up the Fwd line.

    Not sure what to do with Danger. Mids is a bit depleted now. Can cover Goodes in defence. Buddy????? 2 trades left.

    2201/GAJ and a win in SCTTL4. Sitting 3rd and play 2nd and 4th next 2 rounds.
