Currently sitting second in my league, but a loss likely to drop me out of top four and lose the double chance.
Thinking of two possible trade scenarios for Gawn (Don’t really want to use my reserve ruck Darcy Cameron):
TU – Trade him for a Reilly O’Brien type player to get me 90-100 points and then leave me enough cash to do a decent upgrade of Ruscoe in defence or Ash in my midfield.
TD – Trade Gawn for premium ruck in Nic Nat or Goldy and just trade in another rookie for Ruscoe/Ash.
Only have $11k in the bank.
Projected 2477. Pretty happy so far, plenty of premos to come. Lloyd, Dusty, Zerrett and Dev (finally!) all raised the bat tonight. New recruit Saad also held his own.
Still tossing up whether to keep the captain’s armband on NicNat or transfer it to Neale (concerned about a Steele tag)
* Macrae Captain could become Neale and Rankine Skinner if Skinner is a late call u as Skinner currently on field as my captain loop.
I better be watching closely as Skinner as C would be disastrous
Wish I could cry about this round 1958 with Simpkin Grundy and Cameron still to come. Got burnt by Neale with captaincy. 10 so called premos this round scored under 100. Ranked about 5000 currently hoping I dont drop into the 10s of thousands.
Gotta post the good and the bad weeks but hey, teams looking good long term with only 2 rookies left on field and got great bye coverage especially round 15 so hoping for a small hiccup this week to charge up the rankings late on in the season
Viney Daniel Fyfe Petracca Lyons Neale Haynes Saad docherty . While some of these will
Be forgiven due to credits in the bank. My backline curse continues of me bringing them in then they start scoring 80-90 rather than 100-115.
While some went close to three figures those extra 10-20 points each round for those premos would really push me up the rankings.
Currently 477. Was headed for near 2600 until my Oliver into Neale captaincy error. Now projected for under 2500 and suspect I’ll slip down the rankings. If only I’d gone Macrae as VC like many others did.
Same boat here was tossing up between Oliver and Macrae and got it wrong so Neale got the C. Projection Saturday night was 2550 now I will be hoping for 2350.
2025 with Grundy, Goldy and Simpkin.
Ranked 616 so likely dropping after a drop of 300 last round
I need to downgrade Zerk…. help me.
Jordan BUTTS (ADEL, DEF, 123k) set to debut.
207/#2/undecided
Had Cripps Vice captain, what are people’s thoughts:
TU – Take Crips score of 123
TD – Captain Neale
Comment: Other (Petracca, Oliver, Bont)

Take Rankins 58
Or
Field Georgiades
Thanks
Need to win this week to make finals in my league.
Had the VC on Cripps, and he has an awkward captain’s score of 123.
Opponent currently has the VC on Macrae/C on Neale.
Do I go with Cripps score or take a punt on Bont/Neale?
207 / 2 played
I can’t decide on my midfield spot..
TU: Macrae
TD: Parker
Cmnt below: fyfe
Neale and Macrae should be the first two mids picked.
1399/12/Macrae
Chugging along alright, 10 premos left to play. 2500~ on the cards barring any shockers.
Dammit i C Fyfe scores dropping to 2300.. so sad all my players score 100+ and fyfe score ruin it. Going to lose my match
Rumoured to be playing a bit injured. Playing forward a lot, risky to trade him in last couple weeks let blood put C on him
1029/9/NicNat
Projected 2477. Pretty happy so far, plenty of premos to come. Lloyd, Dusty, Zerrett and Dev (finally!) all raised the bat tonight. New recruit Saad also held his own.
Still tossing up whether to keep the captain’s armband on NicNat or transfer it to Neale (concerned about a Steele tag)
1613 / 13 / Macrae
Hoping to jump up big time, hopefully into the top 100 this week
1550/13/McRae
Solid so far but a bit dissapointed with Hill & new recruit Fyfe. Hoping for a score to hold rank or slightly improve
1770 / 14 / Macrae
7 premiums + Bytel to come. Projected 2619… I couldn’t, could I?
I’m 1510/13/Macrae
8 premos and Sholl to come. I reckon 2600 is possible but I’d need all of my premos to fire and a couple of 150s to occur.
2110 / 17 / Macrae
Toes and fingers are crossed.
Well done all ;
Some great scores coming up
I’m currently
1422/12/Macrae
* Macrae Captain could become Neale and Rankine Skinner if Skinner is a late call u as Skinner currently on field as my captain loop.

Hey team,
Take Wicks as emergency or play
TU Close
TD Bytel
only playing for leagues and think I have the win in the bag. Would just be for percentage
Thanks in advance
Line ball Shorza between taking Wicks score and Close achieving close to his average .
He is up against Adelaide after being rested though
Good luck
Thanks team, think I might run with Close and hope he gets a couple of snags
1999/17/Macrae
Neale, Coniglio, Whitfield, Grundy & Goldy still to play…
Hoping for 2500 +
Currently ranked 814
1951/18/Neale
Was on track for 2500+ until I got rinsed putting the C on Neale
2248/20/NicNat
Grundy and Cameron to come. Projected 2428.
Lots of big scores coming up this week. Will this be enough for me to go up in the rankings?
What is your current rank?
8682 currently Will
Going up I’d say
2319/19/Macrae
Have Grundy, Simpkin and Noble left. Hoping for high 2500 mark
2314/20/McRae
Grundy & Simpkin to go so hopefully break the 2500 mark.
Par score this round
TU- 2350-2450
TD- 2450
Comment: Higher if so how high for par
2423 / 20 / Macrae
Grundy + Maynard to go. Looking at 2600+
If Maynard gets 150+ I’d be very happy to have tea and scones at a convent(?) with Missus Macca(?)…SCTTL ….LOL
What mate?
it will put me in front of them. (FD and Macca)
Maynard is the difference.
OTG represent
2471 / 21 / Macrae
Sitting on 2471 with Grundy to come. Thinking top 1%? Especially with many having Neale C.
2,336 with Grundy and Simpkin to come.
Very happy and need Simpkin to score 85 to win my main league.

Props for still posting in an off round, Tom. All class.
Who are the 10 “so called” premos Tom?

2317/21/Macrae
Just got Grundy left, not bad.
Ass score there habib.
Did anyone watch tonight’s game and noticed Shuey ended up a little proppy at the end of the game? Hopefully he’s all good
Yep, did see that. He’s had a dodgy ankle i think and the player landed on it in that last contest, hopefully just a knock!
2350 / 20 / Macrae
Grundy & Simpkin to come.
Currently 778th overall, will I move into Top 500?
Yes. I’d say top 200.
I’m on 2222 with 2 to come. Richie Benaud would be happy
Marvellous effort, that.

2383/21/Grundy
Currently just inside the top 1000 but hoping to move into top 500 with a big score from Grundy.
