Discussion 2024 Round 14: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Tamuhawk]

Big game for me with 9 players in this game... which is half my SC team! Doesn't look great for sharing of the SC pie.

Quick one guys: Clark v Young v Houston v Dale?

Thanks, sorry in wrong thread but if it's Clark need to lock it in soon obviously and have been without reception until now. Thanks again.

J Clark I reckon, Houston a close second.

J Clark I reckon, Houston a close second.

Thanks mate. That was my first choice - good to have it confirmed. Defence complete, having said that, Stewart is D6

Zorko did his bit, but Neale, Steele and Reville not so much.

Hoping that at least Neale and Reville's scores drop out.

 

[toxic]

I saw a few mentions of Chapman this week!

I was one of them

Reversal done

 

[7/11]

If I go more than 2 minutes without one of my 8 players touching the ball or recording a stat this game, I riot!

4/542
Played: D Zorko (C), J Dunkley, J Steele and A Schoenmakers (new recruit)
Yet to play:
Saturday: M Bontempelli, C Daniel, N Fyfe, L Jackson, H Young, D Moore (new recruit), B Dowling, B Grundy and I Heeney
Sunday: Z Fisher, H Sheezel, N Daicos, N Kreuger (new recruit), L Sullivan, T Green, Z Butters and D Houston

Gawn receives the captaincy duties with VC Zorko banked. Fantastic return after selecting him over Flanders last round. Dunkley purchase pre bye has been disappointing given the outlay. Floor and consistency expected but was hoping for the high ceiling more often. Considered Sinclair but opted for Moore instead as this would allow Daniel (M9), Fyfe (F7) and A Schoenmakers (D7) rather than pushing Stewart to the bench once we exit the byes. 21 available this round so hopefully third time lucky for Daniel repaying the faith so that the three remaining rookies do not count this round.

And Daniel sub.

 

[BlufBlufShuv]

Not sure Freijah's JS is that secure post bye with plays like that.

 

[7/11]

Great to see Sturt back playing. He’s had horrendous luck with injuries. Was a popular rookie back a few seasons.

 

[Peter56]

Out in Melbourne today so I can't do any scores until this evening.
Good luck everyone 🤞

 

[Tamuhawk]

Jackson goal!

Not sure how Bont is on 36, but I’ll take it! 😂

 

[Tamuhawk]

Made a deal with the devil (666k) to get Ryan in but he's only taken 1/3 kick ins so far.

 

[bluesbrothers]

Games without Ryan in my team he takes nearly every kick-in. This game, he runs away from the kick-in so everyone else in the team can have a go hahaha. So predictable!!

I brought him in too… hope we didn’t break him

Looking like Bont could've been a good VC or C choice, all the "illness" talk scares you off though, was it Covid that he had, does anyone know?
He should play after not training more often!

 

[Zimmer]

Can't remember a year more difficult to nail a VC/C.

The classic Pendles pre-game illness which result in better game day performances. Gawn had that disease a few rounds back too
