GD does so much on our behalf all year round that any MIA on his part is more than ok. Gives us the chance to make our own choices,which may not go so well!!!
I’ve done a few numbers if anyone is interested (in case GD is indisposed or pulling out his hair with all the outs this round) :
PETRACCA (Fri) : L3 v BL – 103 AV and L3 @ MCG 125 AV
NEALE (Fri) : L3 v Melb – 105 AV and L3 @ MCG – 107 AV (doesn’t often play there)
DAICOS (Sat arvo) : 1 game v Freo – 65 and L3 @ MCG – 116 AV
MARSHALL (Sat arvo) : L3 v GCS – 109 AV and no info for games at GCS
ROZEE (Sat arvo) : L3 v CAR – 80 AV and L3 @ Mvl – 93 AV
MERRETT (Sat night) : L3 v Geel – 103 AV and L3 @ GMS – 107 AV
STEWART (Sat night) : L3 v Ess – 111 AV and L3 @ GMS – 124 AV
LAIRD (Sat night) : L3 v GWS – 80 AV and L3 @ AO – 118 AV
DAWSON (Sat night) : L3 V GWS – 92 AV and L3 @AOI – 105 AV
SICILY (SUN arvo) : L3 v NM – 104 AV and L3 @ Mvl – 131 AV
So with no Serong, Titch, Lloyd, Dunks, Sheldrick and DCam, I am looking at 2 donuts. Is it worth trading out Sheldrick for C Harvey? 5 trades left. Struggling to see what else I can do to minimize the damage.
TU : Yes
TD : Don’t bother, take the 2 donuts. Sheldrick will be a better bench player going forward.
Or comment below for pull the pin and trade out Titch with his 3R average of 95 for Sicily/Petracca and Sheldrick for Harvey ?
TU : DO the 2 trades to get in Sicily/Petracca and C Harvey (trad eout Titch & Sheldrick)
TD : Tank this round with the 2 donuts (will be 3 if Maric doesn’t make Sundays team) and keep my 5 trades.
Cheers for putting up that info earlier, George Hewitt for Fyfe if you have him, Darcy cam via DPP, , Hewitt was a beast last year and if given Kennedy role could be again and at 260ish ,it’s what I’m considering doing.
Only got 21 on field with Lloyd, Dunkley and Cameron out. Having Chesser and Johnson on field to cover and hoping Sinn is sub for Cameron.
Taking a hit for a 0 with 4 trades left otherwise
Looks like I will be playing 1 short this week.
I thought Francis was going to be sub again this week but apparently not.
Carrying Lloyd and Yeo and Mitchell is needed in the forward line.
Only 2 trades left.
Made a big error about 3 weeks ago when I needed a rookie to come in and so I chose Binns.
Since then Cuningham Fogarty have gone past him and come in and now Harvey has debuted.
So ended up trading out Lloyd and Sheldrick for Sicily and C Harvey with the Hail Mary on VC English – if Ridley and Maric play, maybe it won’t be such a catastrophic round after all?
4 CP, 2 marks, 1 tackle, 2 intercept possessions.
Most disposals seemed to come from kick ins.
A lot of other very high scoring players would also reduce his scoring
Yeah I feel it is quite low. May have been some turnovers that were very crucial in the game, like running too far from a kick in to then give a shot at goal
No captain and VC choice optio article for this round?
Assuming GD has been quite busy lately so is struggling to do any posts for SCTalk

Libba with an elite start
Thrown the VC on English when he is playing McLean as the Sydney ruck
Me too Nato – need something to go right this week!
And hoping he goes huge as I have SO many non playing players to as Captain.

English 62 at quarter time!!!
Anyone else see Keath jet snot a booger at Gulden just as the coverage went to the ad??…..
Misconduct fine incoming lol
English absolute gun. Brilliant first quarter, dominant.
Congrats to those who VC’d. What a start.
Carnage this round.
O’Donnell subbed due to a head knock
English VC going well… with so many outs this round, at least it’s not hard to find a non playing loophole.
English on track for a double tonne!
Melican subbed off halfway through the 3rd term after limping to the bench
Oh bugger me!!! Seriously, is this season the worst on record!!!!
Oh darn Melican injured! My team is cooked
Me too. Needed Melican this week
Mills only on 46 at 3/4 time
Popular picks Gulden, Bont, Libba and English have already got into triple figure scores
Glad I can relax a bit more with the VC on English so I won’t worry as much with 21 on the field

What happened to Dale? 22 touches at 68 doesn’t normally yield only 50 points
4 CP, 2 marks, 1 tackle, 2 intercept possessions.
Most disposals seemed to come from kick ins.
A lot of other very high scoring players would also reduce his scoring
Fair enough, still seems harsh to me, but I suppose I’ll have to cop it on the chin.
Yeah I feel it is quite low. May have been some turnovers that were very crucial in the game, like running too far from a kick in to then give a shot at goal
Thanks Tingles, I’ll be taking that V/C score!
