Discussion 2024 Round 8: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Maccas marvels]

Whom do we take…Comben 52 or roll with Khamis?

 

[Russty_]

Steele owners would be happy with a 105 output considering past couple of weeks….
will drop approx $40k but if you see him as a year long keeper then the cash really doesnt matter as much…

Happy to keep him Macca.... very serviceable score this week.

 

[Russty_]

Wish I could watch both of these next 2 games live, both should be good contests I reckon.

 

[Maccas marvels]

Yep, I'll go back and find out who recommended to keep Kerch when he was rock bottom - much better coach than me.

goes to show we can’t chase breakevens all the time….i am guilty of this as well and it costs me keeping the right rookies a little longer…
having said that Mckercher scored 6 and was being played out of position at the time so can’t fault coaches for trading

 

[wolfbunny]

Wilson the new Greenman 🤣

 

[Bermi]

Pre-scaling:

 

[Serj]

No clark late out? Desperately seeking a way to get Wilson's score on field in the mids

 

[Russty_]

Garcia’s 56 or Howes ?

Howes in good form last few weeks.

Yep, exactly where we are with Sheezel and Powell today. Sometimes the better decision is do nothing?
McKercher scores 6, went to hospital, and playing in the middle, it was the right decision. If we all were able to play with hindsight…

4/409
Sweet 74
Dawson 94
Walsh 91
Daicos 150
Could be better, could be worse, also have Williams who I put as emergency who I'm not taking.
To come:
Roberts, Heeney, Green, Sheezel, Powell, Steele,Wilson, Gawn , Stewart, Reid, Ryan, Jackson, Darcy, Bont, Flanders, Touk, Clohsey and Graham

10/957
Green injury, along with quiet game from Sheezel and Roberts not helping things.
Powell will probably have to be a hold for me with the way things have turned out, happy with Heeney, Steele and Wilson.
Hoping for a big one from captain Gawn along with Stewart and for Clark(yes I kept him) to kickstart his cash generation a bit on my bench. Reid speaks for himself but hopefully he does well without Eagles winning

11/1142

McKercher 135*
Wilson(E) 126 taken
Steele(vc) 112
Bonner 98
Sheezel 73
Powell
Comben(E) 52 not taken

Gawn (C) in the next and Martin + Reid later.

 

[Diabolical]

VC rule will be enacted to cover your captain given it happened so early in the game.

Oh, I completely forgot about that rule! VC Dawson wasn’t great but that is a hell of a lot easier to stomach.

 

[Courtesans]

Season just keeps on giving. Sold both McKercher and Wilson.

 

[Maccas marvels]

Garcia’s 56 or Howes ?

Howes

8/763
Played: I Rankine, Z Butters, S Walsh (VC), N Daicos, I Heeney, M Roberts, B Grundy and T Green
Yet to play:
Saturday: J Steele, D Wilson, C Comben, H Sheezel, M Gawn (C), T Stewart, H Reid and N Martin
Sunday: N Fyfe, H Young, M Bontempelli, S Darcy, S Clohesy and T Miller

Should have backed myself in with the Roberts to Moore move. No worries as I can trade him to a mid premium next round. Jones to be prioritised over Hardeman as a Dempsey replacement (so far) which means Wilson will likely cover Green in the event he misses rather than Graham, as one of Graham/Clohesy is stuck at D7 unless I use dual position magic and move Comben to the def bench.

12/1129
Played: I Rankine, Z Butters, S Walsh (VC), N Daicos, I Heeney, M Roberts, B Grundy, T Green, J Steele, D Wilson, C Comben and H Sheezel
Yet to play:
Saturday: M Gawn (C), T Stewart, H Reid and N Martin
Sunday: N Fyfe, H Young, M Bontempelli, S Darcy, S Clohesy and T Miller

D Wilson fantastic and great to see Steele back to scoring tons. Was hoping Comben would push the 80+ range with the matchup but unfortunately did not and joins Roberts and Dempsey on the chopping block.

Petracca auditioning to be the midfield premium traded in next round but the temptation of Oliver could be too great if he posts 5+ tackles and marks tonight.

‘Cameron lining up on the wing against Windsor’

Windsor runs off Cameron and hits up Fritsch, crickets from the announcers.

 

[Slammer]

Howes[/QUOTE

Apologies… meant Windsor

 

[Zimmer]

Interpretation of HTB has become the most rubbish aspect of the game.

Oops sold Dempsey
