It has got me stuffed, if I know what the point of tagging Selwood is when you let Danger run pretty much unchecked.

Surely Danger does twice as much damage as Selwood on a normal day. No point taking Selwood out if you let Danger have 20 and 2 goals in half a game.

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
Good to see my little vent worked last night as a non Danger owner. Either he played forward a lot more with little effect or the Dees did put some more work into him in the second half.

As for the ridiculous free kick he got and goal, dont get me started...

It is a ridiculous rule and although technically correct, it was a terrible decision.

I agree Danger had nominated himself as the ruckman, but at the time the throw-in happened he was 10 metres behind Gawn, then when the throw-in happened it was 5m short of where Gawn was. So Danger was 10-15m behind where he should have been if he was contesting.

Sorry I started myself ?.

Nothing to see here, move on ?

13/1320 if I take Heron's 59 instead of trading Sicily to Hurn.
Seems to be around par or just a tad lower so I will leave my last trade to fight another day.

You can tag jelwood out of games pretty successfully, danger not so much.

The ruck rule is fine as only one up but they can bin the nomination. If two players of the same side go up, free kick. Stop making it more complex than it is.

Exactly what I think is the simple solution! Let each team decide who goes up, if 2 from the same team go up, free against them.

Going to be a rubbish week for me - copped Gawn C, Doedee 20 and injured, Crisp with his lowest score for the year, Savage, and Sunday still to come :(

I’m going to go Cripps for no real reason other than I’ve had it on him all week. Let’s see, hope it’s not a disaster.

I guess that means I'm going with Mitchell, as I've had it on him all week. Hopefully it works out either way. Watch me change it to Cripps at the last minute.

Hmmm - Mitchell doesn’t have a great record against Carlton or especially at Etihad recently. Might switch to Cripps.

Anyone like any other C options today?

Gawn faltered and have had C on Mitchell all week.

Feels like madness to make a last minute swap after setting it for a whole week...

Hopefully Carlton just worry about playing well and not tagging.

Really left field would be E Curnow,

Although as a loyal longstanding Carlton supporter I admit to having the c on Titch (sad but true)

Mitchell scored 161 against Carlton in Rnd 22 last year. In 2016 whilst at the Swans, he scored 133 and 81. That’s pretty good if you ask me!

Brodie Smith got through his comeback in the SANFL yesterday with flying colours , looking at a return for the Showdown in Round 20.
