Ok hoping the pies are competitive tonight. Watching Grundy, Crisp and mini Daicos. Also hoping Steele doesn’t go big coz I couldn’t fit him in! Go Pies
Don’t have great reads on either tbh but thinking Billings and Clark out for a while helps Owens, whereas the Eagles are all over the place with injuries and corona. Witherden also back next week.
Tough go GD but logical thinking. See how he goes next week and if he delivers use a rookie correction before price increases. R/f flexibility will be big this year I reckon
Ryder misses a lot of games and ain’t getting any younger. I think Hayes will play 10+ games and if his form stays, they may keep Ryder as a break glass in emergency.
HALF TIME and it’s the Pies with their nose in front 7.9.51 to the Saints 5.6.36

and just realised that I should have started him on the Fwd bench with the R … and given myself the option of Motts Manoeuvre by picking an NPR on the fwd line … never learn … damn …
Crisp ran up and down and all over the joint 4 f…k all Howe and Daicos are being used out of the backline moving the ball quickly and bypassing crisp this might change when they play better sides. .In crisp we trust iam not to sure ?.
Well this performance from Hayes has been a surprise and is making me reconsider my team.
T/U – Keep current structure and have R2 Witts and D4 Chapman
T/D – R2 Preuss (obviously take Hayes score this week) D4 Sicily
And while we are at it … just WTF is Steele doing tonight???? 7 clangers so far (2 frees against in that), but woeful scoring … anyone who took Tracc instead of Steele well ahead!
TU: Josh Kelly (Better value having started last season in the forward line, but injury history)
TD: Darcy Parish (Higher ceiling but susceptible to a tag)
Had decided to roll with Long as my loophole, to take Macrae’s VC score (and because I couldn’t afford any other playing rookie to replace him with). Long was my captain on the mid bench with Daicos my emergency. Long now switched with Rachele to the forward line, with Hayes my forward emergency. More than happy to take his 123, even with Daicos’s 99 . Love seeing rookies scoring well. Not so happy with some of premiums though – Crisp & Steele. More worried about Crisp’s role – Lipinkski seemed to taking the points that Crisp was getting last season.
nice play Lisa having Hayes on your FWd bench with the E … I had too much on my plate tonight and too rushed and completely forgot to swap him with Dixon to FWD bench as first playing reserve from the two to give possible option of taking his score if he went off … just goes to show that you have to be right on with everything!
Nice Lisa…I had Hayes as R3 so can only get his score by swapping Witts to Benning, then I have to find a $400k fwd from who is left to play by trading Long. Think thats a bit extravagant and will also cost a trade somewhere along the line I would think. Nice advice for the future from Macca about the timing/placement of players with the e. A ton from Witts will ease the pain !!!
Great debut by young daicos only difference between himself and his dad is his old man could kill you with 15 touches , just ask bruce doull, but the kid is off to a fine start
I was $100 short of being able to bring in Lipinski so stuck with Curnow in the forward line. Hayes would have been an emergency.
Supercoach seems to be a bit like golf. There are times that you think that you can actually play. Other times, you’re just an old man looking for a golf ball.
Jade Gresham ( 109 ) is a bit of a forgotten man in all this. With Jones out for a while, Gresh looks to be getting the midfield time. I would be keen to get and CBA numbers. He comes with some injury risk at $299K 2 goals and only 2 tackles is a little worrying too as he probably needs goals to ton. At least his 85% TOG bodes well. If he’s playing more like a 60/40 split he may still come into contention.
Yeah maybe Gresh in the fwds but still an awkward price point $299k. Depends on how Xerri and Brodie goes or Crisp next week who was the biggest disappointment and needs to improve or needs to go (poss downgrade Def and upgrade fwds). If you are only playing with a 3 premo Def you wouldn’t want to do that I don’t think.
BTW dodged a bullet in ‘Relton’ Owens, that Intel was a bit off the mark hey 🙂

Hey guys got til the bounce to but this one out…
TU: STEELE N.MARTIN & WILMOTT
TD: TITCH XERRI & WILMOTT
I know Titch has the groin but It was only ever soreness no strain of any sort… Feel he will match Steele and a POD! Thanks in advance
Wondering if I should get Owens in?
Who should I put in m11?
Owens TU
Hough TD
Any insight would help?
I’ve gone Owens over Hough, Wognuts.
Don’t have great reads on either tbh but thinking Billings and Clark out for a while helps Owens, whereas the Eagles are all over the place with injuries and corona. Witherden also back next week.
did you keep macdonald on your mid bench GD??
Yeah, Macca. Impressed over pre-season.
Looks good.
Hate to say it GD, but Owens looks a dud … damn … my fault for last minute change … correction trade ASAP I think
I’ll go Owens. See where I’m at in a month lol
Hmmm. Not good
No late changes
Medical subs –
St Kilda : Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera ($162k D/M) Pick 11 in 2021 AFL Draft
Collingwood : Tom Wilson ($199k D)
F6?
TU – N.Martin
TD – J.Hayes
Well this didn’t end well at all
Hey guys
Baldwin
Or
Martin??
Cheers
Got two pages of options so just one vote total please
TU – Owens
TD – Stephens
Page two
TU – Hough
TD – mead
Evening, all.
Steele VC, Daicos, Grundy (as Darcy replacement) and Owens benched for me tonight.
Hope everyone’s had a god week.
Didn’t god have the c on petracca ?
Ahaha, nope.
Take it you’ve got the straight C on Draper, Wighty.
Yep…gotta be different to win this
Tu hayes
Td dixon
Bloody Daicos I’m gunna trade him lol
Spewing I don’t have lipinski. He looks great! Had him until he hurt his foot. Go pies.
Anyone else nervous that lipinski is going to be taking a lot of points off crisp??
Crisp looks like a dud in the midfield…game moves too fast for him.
Faded Hayes thinking Ryder (who was close this week) would immediately take his spot.
Wa-oh.
Tough go GD but logical thinking. See how he goes next week and if he delivers use a rookie correction before price increases. R/f flexibility will be big this year I reckon
Yep – Hayes may be undersized (height wise) for a ruckman.
So he will struggle to score too many points from his ruck work.
Grundy jumped all over him at one point at a centre bounce down.
But he works hard, he knows where to go to get the footy, he has good hands, and it also looks like he has pretty good skills.
Very encouraging first half of AFL footy from him 🙂
Ryder misses a lot of games and ain’t getting any younger. I think Hayes will play 10+ games and if his form stays, they may keep Ryder as a break glass in emergency.

What a great collect and kick by Hayes!
Might have to go Hayes at R1 and Darcy at R3!!!
he’s about to outscore my Gawn at R1!
and just realised that I should have started him on the Fwd bench with the R … and given myself the option of Motts Manoeuvre by picking an NPR on the fwd line … never learn … damn …
How is my $102k rookie ruck on my bench outscoring my top premo choice in Steele
Hayyyyyyyssssssseeeeyyyyyyyyy!
New cult hero!
Hayes has got 3!! Crumbing like a small forward
Crisp looking genuinely lost out there tonight…
Yep Crisp is looking like a bust at least tonight.
Maybe a correctional trade if he spuds it up next week as well.
Well Hayes on the bench without an E is a good plan! Go me!
Me too!!
Just need to hope now that Darcy is not a late inclusion !!
So, Witt’s to Benning who becomes loop, and get Hayes score. Also frees 290k
Well. I f*cked up on Hayes. No doubt.
Took Durdin’s 71, so wouldn’t have had him in field but this guy’s coming in for me the minute Owens gets dropped lol.
Nice work to those on him, especially if you’ve fielded him!
Not alone GD. At least I had him on bench.
Yes! Hayes big score on debut
crisp too anyone on monday… i don’t even care who at this point in time.
Crisp to Stewart and done
Just replace Crisp with the seagull
Looks like Lipinski is taking points off Crisp to me. Playing middle and back whilst Lipinski was middle and fwd. Distinct role change .
Crisp ran up and down and all over the joint 4 f…k all Howe and Daicos are being used out of the backline moving the ball quickly and bypassing crisp this might change when they play better sides. .In crisp we trust iam not to sure ?.
Well this performance from Hayes has been a surprise and is making me reconsider my team.
T/U – Keep current structure and have R2 Witts and D4 Chapman
T/D – R2 Preuss (obviously take Hayes score this week) D4 Sicily
Glad I made the last minute decision yesterday to swap crisp down to Hewett so I could get McGovern in!
oh wow – that is a great call – only first week, but massive for you … hope it continues!
Gold Sim!
Thank you Mr Hayes, as for you Mr Crisp what the f#ck are you doing!!
Rage Trade – Thinking Crisp becomes Lloyd next week
I traded Lloyd to Crisp this week. lol.
ouch CT!
Blowing a trade after one week ?
Just looked at the SC scores on fan footy. I have Hayes on the bench a the C on steele. I give up. I know nothing about SC.
crisp – I have him too….but only one game
He is out
And while we are at it … just WTF is Steele doing tonight???? 7 clangers so far (2 frees against in that), but woeful scoring … anyone who took Tracc instead of Steele well ahead!
Took Trac but also have Steele 🙁
Relton Roberts/Mitch Owens.. Same same but different
so lucky I passed on steele this evening and rolling the dice on titch..
but knowing my luck titch will be a late out with covid haha
I’ve had a few deep breathes, calmed down and giving crisp a lifeline he gets one more week to prove himself.
Can’t decide for my M3…
TU: Josh Kelly (Better value having started last season in the forward line, but injury history)
TD: Darcy Parish (Higher ceiling but susceptible to a tag)
Whatever you do, don’t make it Steele. What was that?
Nah Steele doesn’t factor into this quandary… He was already my captain ☹️
Grundy coming through and proving his class as well … well done to those that stuck with him
Thanks macca
Rowan in Crisp and Grundy Out
We have 35 trades…not 350 !!!

Agree with your comment Lisa about Crisp too, his role from last year seems to have gone to Lipinski.
Nice Lisa…I had Hayes as R3 so can only get his score by swapping Witts to Benning, then I have to find a $400k fwd from who is left to play by trading Long. Think thats a bit extravagant and will also cost a trade somewhere along the line I would think. Nice advice for the future from Macca about the timing/placement of players with the e. A ton from Witts will ease the pain !!!
Why not just use a 200-300k midprice forward and then use the extra money to rookie correct your defensive line
I can’t see one I like at the price. Besides, I’m only missing the difference in pts.
Changed Cripps and Sicily to Crisp and Rowell before bounce yesterday =[
Finger’s crossed for a HUGE game from Rowell then…
partial ouch Nateo … fingers crossed that Rowell’s pre season form is meaning back to like he was on his debut!
Is Darcy definitely just the one week? Will be taking Hayes for this week and trade back Nic Nat for Darcy.
We’re going to need a new rate my team thread!
I got rid of Xerri for a non-playing rookie to take Hayes score. Was that the right thing to do?
Is it worth bringing in a donut for Martin (rookie) up fwd to be able to take Hayes score?
Tu; Do it
Td; Its round 1, have rookies who are going to play and generate cash!!!
As long as it’s your only don’t, yes.
N Martin > Hollands just to take Hayes score
this week?
Will be likely to bring in hollands sometime soon as he should get game time.
Yes or no?!
Its only 1 game in R1 – risky reading much into it – wait for a 2nd week – how often do people chase points that are gone in this game.
Great debut by young daicos only difference between himself and his dad is his old man could kill you with 15 touches , just ask bruce doull, but the kid is off to a fine start
Baldwin out. Non playing R/F loophole in.
With English and Hayes now scoring threats seems a better way to complete the loop then Hoping Preuss gets FWD in week 6
The tribe has spoken. No looping of Hayes score with a donut. Xerri better score well!
I was $100 short of being able to bring in Lipinski so stuck with Curnow in the forward line. Hayes would have been an emergency.
Supercoach seems to be a bit like golf. There are times that you think that you can actually play. Other times, you’re just an old man looking for a golf ball.
N Martin > Voss (102k fwd/ defender)
This enables me to take;
– Hayes score
– Future donut for vc loophole
– Can swing down back with SDK & McCartin in future for more forward options.
Have to weight up how safe Martin is in that Essendon side. Thoughts?
Tu; Go for it
TD; Hold Martin at F8
Jade Gresham ( 109 ) is a bit of a forgotten man in all this. With Jones out for a while, Gresh looks to be getting the midfield time. I would be keen to get and CBA numbers. He comes with some injury risk at $299K 2 goals and only 2 tackles is a little worrying too as he probably needs goals to ton. At least his 85% TOG bodes well. If he’s playing more like a 60/40 split he may still come into contention.
Anyone else possibly eyeing off the Gresh ?
17 games out of a possible 66 in the last 3 years doesn’t inspire confidence for me at that awkward price point.
Yeah maybe Gresh in the fwds but still an awkward price point $299k. Depends on how Xerri and Brodie goes or Crisp next week who was the biggest disappointment and needs to improve or needs to go (poss downgrade Def and upgrade fwds). If you are only playing with a 3 premo Def you wouldn’t want to do that I don’t think.
BTW dodged a bullet in ‘Relton’ Owens, that Intel was a bit off the mark hey 🙂
