Round 1: Teams and In Game Discussion

[Rockydunlop]

Hope so but I don't think so!
Selwood, Sam Mitchell, Harry Taylor, Bartel and Clark to come

 

[THCLT]

1975 with 2 to play. 2150-2200 and I'll be happy.

2145 with Selwood to play

2111 with Clark to come. Some work to do. Trades already burning a hole in my pocket.....

1912 with Selwood, Bartel, Clark to come. Managed to get the right rookies onfield, hopefully 2200

1795/17 players
4 premiums and Clark left
Hope they can pull me to 2300

2300 might get you the top prize, nice score

Great going guys!

1680/19 with Jelwood, Bartel, Clark to go...will be stoked if I can somehow scrape past 2,000

 

[OzRulesFootball]

big Goldy the highest scoring ruck with 100 points is this the new norm

I believe, yes!

There will still be times a ruck will score very good but a lot of 70's scores I think will happen.
Happy with 100 from my first ruck.

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

1,761 with Selwood, Bartel and Clark left to go.
Hopefully can crack 2,000 and not fall too behind the pack.

 

[Prochard]

120 from Selwood Bartel Mitchell 90 from Taylor 80 from clark with a total of 2325 seems like a fairly good chance for the grand

I'm usually optimistic but I'm waiting for something to give.
A good start regardless

Cheers

 

[Grant]

2300 might get you the top prize, nice score

I still expect it to be about 2550.

 

[Ben's Beasts]

19/1648

Week from hell mainly because of errors from yours truly. I don't actually mind my team but just stupid mistakes and wrong rookies on field have cost me close to 200 points.

Cant wait for round 2 to roll around.

 

[OzRulesFootball]

Depressing start. To hear others seriously upset at just over 2000 and know quite a few probably did not have Rocky and I'll be struggling to get to 1900 at this stage is shattering start. 8 players in my 22 scored under 80 so far. Hope Hodge, Bartel, James Kelly, Clark and Blicavs can improve my mood for round one.

We all have those moments at some point or another, I'm sure you'll rebound strongly and put in another stellar performance this year!

 

[Beijing_Sting]

1814/20 (c) played. Clark and Selwood to go. I don't think I'll hit 2000. Very disappointing considering my highest two back scores were from Rookies and one of those (the highest) was a NS emergency.

 

[Benno]

1773/20/no captain yet

Selwood (C) and Clark to go.

Have had a stack of disappointing players, but hopefully still manage to push for 2100. Selwood going huge with the C would be great, but Selwood scoring 125ish and Clark getting a 75ish should be enough to see me push 2100.

 

[BlufBlufShuv]

There's going to be some huge bolters from the pack this round, whether its sustainable long term is another thing.

 

[PC]

1920 with Selwood and Clark to play.

I dodged a bullet with my C choice and really only could have played Heeney over Miller to get more points on the field.

Some of my selections are suspect and I am very unsure about the use of Lycett as a ruck guard now that the ruck scoring changes have become apparent - things to think on during the week...

 

[DoggyODFL]

1553 for me. Defense is a nightmare - even with Saad and McIntosh on the field.
Taylor, Selwood(c), Cockatoo and Bartel to come. NAB challenge trolled by B Smith big time, he could be back in my side this week after being removed at the end of NAB

 

[Bobbie]

1829 with Selwood, McEvoy and Clark to play.

Had Lobbe so was forced to find a replacement - hope McEvoy does ok!! Not too many regrets apart from not going with NicNat, Wines/Danger. Really not going to take any notice of premiums in NAB next year - can be very misleading!!

 

[Maso]

120 from Selwood Bartel Mitchell 90 from Taylor 80 from clark with a total of 2325 seems like a fairly good chance for the grand

1st - $3,000 CASH

DOUBLED to $6,000* cash, if they are also a News Network Digital Subscriber

2nd - $1,000 (DOUBLED to $2,000* cash, if they are also a News Network Digital Subscriber)
3rd - $500 (DOUBLED to $1,000* cash, if they are also a News Network Digital Subscriber)
4th - $250 (DOUBLED to $500* cash, if they are also a News Network Digital Subscriber)
5th - $250 (DOUBLED to $500* cash, if they are also a News Network Digital Subscriber)

so good chance of something Rocky

Someone will hit 2500 this week. Lots of popular mids went bang. Any combination of Geary, Smith, Simpson in defence. Gray, Bontempelli, Wingard, Walker in attack. Goldy/NicNat/TBC.
I should get near 2200 this week and expect to be 300 behind the early pace-setters.

The distribution of scores among the top 3% will be interesting. It sounds like the Pack will be in the 1900 - 2200 range with the leading bolters possibly from 2200 - 2500 (?) The question is how many will be in that leading pack and how big/tight is the main pelaton just behind them.

 

[Alex_26]

1922 with Bartel and Clark to play. Happy to have dodged most of the bullets, but like everyone some lacklustre scoring from prem's have let me down.
