Discussion Round 4: Teams & In Game Discussion
- Thread starter KLo30
- Start date
Much to my despair I will probably hold. I am trying to use logic to convince myself of this decision however SC and logic seem to be further and further apart these days. Hoff rarely misses a game so I am thinking he has 18 games left. If he was going to ave 90 from the start of the season (I clearly hoped for more plus ruck coverage) then he would score 1980 points. So far he has scored 248 leaving 1699 from 18 games to get to season 90 ave. To do that he will ave 94 from here. Also Dixon will be back soon and I am sure that will change the set up. Do I sound convincing?
1563/17 - Danger C. Managed to dodge Grundy VC.
Yesterday was ****e. Ruined my weekend.
I have made one trade this season (Mundy to TKelly rd 3), so far I'm -109 points. Going well.
SC can go f itself. I'm working in the garden today with the radio and no phone. You may hear a scream and my head explode if the Hawks lose...

pretty bad round, but i have a lot of bad luck in this game. years gone by i have had multiple games where im projected 2300+ and scored 1850, so by comparison this ain't so bad : ]
but geez this game can sting in the way things work out. i have tried to be sensible and stay off injury-proners like rocky and libba, not chase their points expecting a revert to mean like boak... the only "aggressive" trade i made was also based on what seemed sound reasoning [heeney to tkelly] that ankles don't get better without rest... these 'sensible" decisions have cost me about 500 points minimum lol. so far
on the plus side, kept b smith based on seedsman injury. so it's not all angsty. sometimes logic works. over to you cousins, you came into my team for libba so i could roll with grawndy combo, make me proud! [and less depressed lol]

Don't think he'll be back soon.

Scrimshaw
Cripps (c), Cousins, Walsh
Newnes, Setterfield
Missed the Grundy (vc), Danger had one of his worst efforts after QT I can remember, so now will be resting on the broad shoulders in Cripps. Not only will he have the Blues to carry but also the fate of my team fortunes for this round. In the spirit that is Easter, this round has been the round to break your 'duck' egg. Just like Melbourne & North Melbourne, the Blues will hopefully break theirs with Cripps playing a starring role!

Hmmm - thanks, that doesn’t sound great.
This suggests he won’t be back in the first half of the year:

Not great for Westhoff owners.

Interesting that 150 points extra it got me this week has a strangely cleansing effect. However I am not convinced it will work out well in the long run.
