A bit of a mixed bag here..
Left Campbell and Sanders out, which really hurted the score.
Very happy with starting Wanganeen-Milera and Jackson, bit less with Young and Grundy..
What a difference a week makes. Traded out H Young for D’Ambrosia, and reshuffled the deck to bring Heeney in. Cash grab on Berry was a minor fail – but I’ll cop that.
Daicos was relegated to the bench (stiff shit, on with the show).
Premium rookies found their feet – McKercher, Roberts & Sanders.
Happy with my bench warmers, Cadman and especially my dark horse Harvey Thomas who tonned up. Didn’t have the stones to field him but a nice cash grab none the less.
2054. Serong. Had Sanders on the bench and went Sexton over Cadman. But at least will hit par.
Can’t wait to get rid of Young and Short. I saw too much
Incredible, only people that didn’t rock up when it mattered were Short and Young (didn’t even count).
Luckily, my rookies showed up for them and the team, shoutout fr 😀
Reasonably happy with the score and the trades I made.
Daicos, Young, Sexton and Reid were the 4 scores dropped from the team. Still had 2 other 60s with Sharp and Howes.
Only minor mistake was Campbell on the bench.
2168 and now ranked in the 30s. Living overseas and thought I’d play a couple of rounds for fun and give up when something went wrong. Unfortunately now I think I’m going to take this seriously.
Weird round. Backline failed me with Daicos, Young and Short but feel like everyone else was ok. Really messed up the rookie roulette with Sanders, Cadman and Roberts all on the bench while Windsor, Clark and Wilson all failed in comparison
1989/Green,
Rookie Roulette got me again, Cadman, Sanders, Darcy on the bench, had to take Daicos, Reid and Sharp.
Minor cry about taking Dawson over Serong to begin the new season, literally tossed a coin – Heads/Dawson, Tails/Serong…landed Heads
DE needs to improve a whole lot, rest of his game seems ok…but I’ve left a lot of points behind to Serong already…
2075 – VC Tingles
Moved from 30K to 9K overall. Not my best start.
Jackson, Butters, Green, Bont, English all did well.
Left some points on the board by not having Butters as the C and Sanders on the bench.
My DEF is depleted though as I started with Gibcus, ZReid and Coffield.
2140 C-Serong. Happy with that and the Team how it currently is.
The 6 ultra premo mids are working a treat (Bont, Merrett, Butters, Serong, Green, Miller all performing especially with Best 18 which was the plan). Premo Def is looking a bit lean with Young gone now with was the tradeoff so the plan is to bolster that up with first upgrade. R4 may struggle down back for points so hoping Mass, Williams and Howes can hold the fort and get me through to the next Best 18 rounds.
1969
C English
V N.Daicos 🙁

I’ve got a very similar story! 1,943, C on English, but left points on the table with Campbell & Sanders also both riding my bench.
2161 – T Green (C)
What a difference a week makes. Traded out H Young for D’Ambrosia, and reshuffled the deck to bring Heeney in. Cash grab on Berry was a minor fail – but I’ll cop that.
Premiums Butters, Green, Bont, Libba, Jackson, Flanders, Stewart & Gawn delivered.
Daicos was relegated to the bench (stiff shit, on with the show).
Premium rookies found their feet – McKercher, Roberts & Sanders.
Happy with my bench warmers, Cadman and especially my dark horse Harvey Thomas who tonned up. Didn’t have the stones to field him but a nice cash grab none the less.

2100/ Gulden C
Jackson, butters, gulden, Whitfield & heeney all with 120+ have definately helped the score
Salem with a 77 (93/86 first 2 rounds) in that awkward spot for keep or trade
Solid start for the season
Iridium12 283
Jackson
Butters
Serong
No major disasters and chose the correct rookies to field. A good score and great cash generation.
0ops, 2083
2082/Green
Good score but a bit annoyed.
Didn’t go for Butters C today and had Sanders and Cadman on the bench. Poor from me.
Did the same but took 141 from Serong. It’s only R2. Keep trading well
2209:
Incredible, only people that didn’t rock up when it mattered were Short and Young (didn’t even count).

1929. Gawn into Butters was my saving grace from total disaster.
Played Sam Berry over Sanders for a minus 47 but that’s SC and Bevo players for you !! Butters, Gawn, Jackson, Bont and Sheez the only 110 +
Seems like I got sucked into Young, and my Spudarick prediction was way off. Time for Corrections.
Woo, 2184. Season rank 217 – total opposite to how I started last year (about 90k :))
2039/Bont
Reasonably happy with the score and the trades I made.
Daicos, Young, Sexton and Reid were the 4 scores dropped from the team. Still had 2 other 60s with Sharp and Howes.
Only minor mistake was Campbell on the bench.

Pray for me.
1922/Green/down to 22k from 6k last week
Weird round. Backline failed me with Daicos, Young and Short but feel like everyone else was ok. Really messed up the rookie roulette with Sanders, Cadman and Roberts all on the bench while Windsor, Clark and Wilson all failed in comparison
2063 English. The irony of Best 18 being better than your score of last week.
A lot better than last week, only disappointment was having Sanders off field, cost me about 50 points. Onwards and upward.
Will have to make some Defense rookie adjustments this week and also consider what to do with S. Berry.
2229 Green C.
Had Gulden and Butters but neither as vc.
Mid teens for the week but sadly will see a big drop this week due to the byes.
1989/Green,
Rookie Roulette got me again, Cadman, Sanders, Darcy on the bench, had to take Daicos, Reid and Sharp.

2066 / C Serong / 3K
Positives: Jackson, Serong, Green, Bont, Stewart, Sheezel, Cadman, Campbell, Sanders, Mckercher,
Negatives: Daicos, Dawson, Young, Coffield (Injury)
Very happy with overall score and ranking. Over the moon with premos apart from Dawson and Young.
1949/Green/48k
Another mediocre week of scoring despite the team looking good on paper. Very happy with the ins of Heeney and Massimo for Young and Gibcus.
Studs:
Green
Bont
Heeney
Fisher
Sanders
Mckercher
Roberts
Cadman (Benched)
Massimo
Duds:
Daicos

2015 Green C – up 25000 places to 73k.
Better score this week with best 18 than last week with 22 on field.
