Simpson the damned scrub cost me a matchup by a small margin in the end - too much spectating and getting to the contest 5 seconds too late but in the end it was that lack of poise on that snap at goal from close that probably decided it.

No hope of a decent rank and now no hope of finals at 2-6 so I guess there's nothing left to play for now.

Breakout game for Serong on my bench, was looking to trade him out this week but with Yeo suspended, gonna hold and hope he plays another good game.
He's playing and his BE will be in the negative next week so you'd want to be keeping him regardless in a season where all the cows have generally stopped mooing early.

Trouble is going to be finding the second rookie for me. No one else really jumping off the page.
I didn't mind Ling. Didn't look that bad I thought? High draft pick so hopefully that puts him in better stead than some of the other Syd youngsters.

T.Watson had a good half but being a late in doesn't bode well for him...

Ling might be one that can be grabbed after his first price rise.

Watson was good early, but you'd suspect if passed fit Cox will slot straight back in for him.

How frustrating is this season.
Many of us probably started with the likes of Macrae, Brayshaw, Brodie Smith, Dan Houston, Hurn, and other all in the one team and many of, like me probably traded a big chunk of them out. I started with 4 of these and traded 4 of these out in the first few weeks lol

Maybe T.Watson the better one to wait on. Has one price rise, then a bye so could be a bye-free downgrade target in R11 and if he's selected then he probably would have JS. We also won't know if he's named til after Ling is locked out....

Just Brayshaw here, but really frustrating having traded him for Wingard. Just goes to show hard it is to stick fat on players, not knowing if they'll turn it around.

Brayshaw's upscaling got me to 2300 which included 10 scores 77 or worse - I reckon there will be some monster scores.
