2117/Mitchell/Was 1908
Horror week for me bad captain choice and a fair bit of spuds 🙁
Studs:
Howe (On Debut)
Neale
Fyfe
Starcevich
Cripps
D.Smith
Taylor
Rowell
Duds:
Ceglar (Traded Brayshaw to him =[ )
Titch (c)
Noble
Laird
Houston
Jacobs
Viney
Likely trades are Zerk and Green to Rivers and Cameron or Flogging Houston off.
Don’t forget your Newman injury in Draft Nath… :p
nooooooo =[
Not the right thread I know, but would love a poll to see how many trades were used this round – reckon the majority of coaches would have used the entire 5? Sturt not being named means I only did the 4. Back to 2 trades next week will make it interesting with plenty of rookies on the bubble.
Done. 😉
Lisa I went with 5 and happy with that as it included Walter and Ridley, plus rookie corrections. Wingard not so good.
We coime up against each other in the millionaires league this week and have very similar looking sides…..trades this week might be critical.
Now I must take a look at your side, to see what magic I can come up with….
Let’s just say the Burbler should’ve stayed in isolation one more week…
ouch oh Bearded one! I saw your side as we were H2H in SCT2 …
I’m sorry you had to witness that Macca – Well done mate; you pants me!
haha – your side still looks good mate … just the luck of the draw! I’m sure you’ll come home strong! As long as we knock off that Man Catta in his league, it will all be sweet!!
2245 with Gawn was ranked 39,301 after round 1.
2366/ Gawn / Was 8746
I am considering renaming my team SwissCheese@SCT as my squad has soooooo many holes in it.
Brodie Smith – run to the ball not away from it.
Chad Wingard – you also get points for doing the basics well and not just that flashy shit you always try
Thank you to Goldy, your a champ. Rowell – just wow. Dunkley – I never doubted you (much)
BTW I had 2138/ Coniglio but have lost most of my leagues
2071
Not going to blame any rookies, but was let down by
-Not fielding Stacevich’s 99
-Martin 79
-Houston 60
-Ceglar 71
-Kelly 89 x 2 as captain
Was ranked 4900
2,234 / Gawn / was 28k
Hoping to move up a few ranks? Not sure what to do with Houston and Doedee..
2122 / Cripps / TBA
2197/ Neale
Duds all backline besides Docherty
Led by Laird , Houston
Thought I would be clever and bring in late debutant Young to leave Starcevich stranded on bench .
2049/Cripps
One of those weeks. Captain choice wasn’t stellar; bringing in Heeney didn’t go so well; Sauce Jacobs was towelled up by Goldstein, and bringing in Noble instead of Starcevich to replace Roberton seems like where I’ve lost most of my points.
Lot of potential trades to ponder – lot of rookies on the bubble, do I bring in Pittonet?
Ooof, Jov. Unlucky on a lot of those calls – it happens, dw.
Yeah, I’m liking Pittonet as well. Just a question of whether it’s worth sacking Doedee (who I just brought in) and two more trades.
Hey GD, what are you thinking of doing with Doedee? Same problem as you
Hey, Andy.
Either I’ll stick it out or trade him to bring in Pittonet. Usually I’d just cop it, but his BE is now 65 and the Crows are terrible this year. Hmm.
Likewise, I’d have to give Noble the sack to bring in Pittonet. I’m not sure if my ego could handle bringing Starcevich in after opting to leave him out of the team.
2390/Gawn/3255
Ended up ranking 677 for this round and jumping 40,000 places OA – very happy.
Copped a lot of the same poor rookie scores as everyone else did (along with new recruit Doedee’s 36), but Gawn, Neale, Petracca, Dunkley and Lloyd brought things back.
2370 / Gawn / was 50,652 – now 5,743
That’s more like it – happy with the climb in ranks this week. Very glad I changed Captain to Gawn from Macrae in the final moments. Was sweating with Rowell’s 171 parked on the pine, but thankfully Tom Green wasn’t a late IN so I could move him onto the field, and giving McInerney his bench spot.
Welcomed Howe on debut in my team, and loved the contributions of rookies Rowell & Starcevich, plus the usual suspects of Neale, Cripps, Dunkley, Oliver, Gawn, Grundy & D Smith.
Won 9/10 leagues this week, after losing 8 last week.
It appears my comment above went to the wrong Lisa!!!
You have me worried now !!
Same Lisa….just forgot to include my team name above.
1943/Danger/about 75K
Poorest effort f0r the longest time!! Didn’t help going bush with no reception and not being back in time to finalise my loops. Consequently left Starc, Taylor and Rowell (ouch!!) on the pine and didn’t get to use Maxxie as my C so missed about 300 points that could’ve been avoided. I know, sob story, my fault so wear it. Needless to say lost all 10 leagues.
Going to take some catching up from here but I’m up for it.
2281/Neale/6730
Studs:Neale,Howe,Fyfe,Dunkley,Rowell,Cripps,Walters
Duds:Pickett,Sauce,Long,Noble
Jumped 25000 overall.Starcevich stranded on bench.
2252/Neale/6656
Moved up 8400+ spots. Of my 5 trades this week I reckon I finished about square. Howe and Cameron were good ins. Doedee and Long not so much. Jury is still out on Bennell. Of my outs I think BSmith, BZT, Cavarra and Green were good calls but may have been a bit hasty offloading Brayshaw. Time will tell.
2243/Neale/18718
Neale was a champ. Macrae needs to lift. Turns out Noble wasn’t! Ruck situation is going to be interesting this week as I have Grundy and Naismith.
2505, came 9th in the whole comp, now 680 after being 54,672.
Had my biggest SC week ever. Walters and Rozee huge for me as well as having Gawn, Lloyd, Neale, Fyfe. Mcluggage and Bont not great this week but gee am I stoked! Happy to post my team with request, but didn’t wanna clog this feed!
2166/Grundy
Studs-Lloyd, Starcevich, Fyfe, Cripps, Oliver, Rowell, D.Smith, Grundy (shouldn’t have put the c on him)
Muppets-B.Smith, Macrae, English, Martin.
Dusty and Macrae should be fine long term, Smith and English are on the chopping block.
so glad i’m not the only one who fell for the b.smith trap again this year.
at least i know what i’m doing with one of my trades this week!
2407/Neale Ranking 369
What a week I’ve jumped up over 13,000 spots
9 players tonned up for me . I had 4 players score 150 +
I kept BZT which enabled me to use Starcevich’s score.
No trades needed this week and I have $120,000 in the bank.
All Smiles this week
VERY nice, Dazz. If only you’d posted a little earlier to get the recognition you deserve, mate. Keep it up!
Thanks GD
I wish I could’ve posted earlier but was in bed early as I had to be up at 4am for work. Oh well I’ll try and post my score a bit earlier next week
