Discussion 2022: Round 1 Teams & In Game Discussion

[Uncle Drew]

Crisp played a shocker and got 69. McGovern played well and got 70. Oh well.

Lipinski looked really good. It's tough to know the best mid mix.

Crisp costs $570k, McGovern costs $250k...

 

[chewy]

9/1,004.

Steele as VC the only real below-par score, so Touk as captain it is. Will give him another week, but if it’s a similar story I might flip him.

Made the late switch from Hayes to Dixon at R3, so that wasn’t ideal! Considering looking at Martin’s score, then if it’s good, getting Hollands in for a week before bringing Hayes in.

13/1541 taking Macrae’s VC score. unfortunately for this round im a Crisp owner, last minute switch from Ridley both have been swapping around all preseason 🤷🏻‍♂️

I

Ummmm, I guess we have played 3 games in rd 1 already.

I'd suggest it's more related to the fact us Perthites are actually allowed to leave our caves and integrate back with the rest of Australia so probably the first time his management team have been over East in a few years, good tax deduction haha

Has Lipinski taken Crisp's midfield spot?

 

[THCLT]

7/682

Yellow card: Crisp
Red card: Owens

My highest scorer in Hayes sitting pretty at R3 behind Gawndy. The annual frustrations has well and truly arrived.

Last minute tinkering...not me!

 

[THCLT]

Has Lipinski taken Crisp's midfield spot?

No, Crisp was playing midfield for the most part...just not very well.

Is keeping Finn Maginness wothwhile or is downgrading to Hough a better solution?

Who knows . From last last night I have ascertained that rookies can score between 2 points and 127 points.

 

[Peter56]

I currently have Gawn, Grundy and Hayes on bench. I have Nic Martin on the fwd bench. Is it worth swapping Martin for Dixon? This will let get Hayes onfield in the future?

Don't know much about McG, but at only 117k Hough should have reasonable JS for the first few games at least I've gone Hough.

Admittedly with not much confidence anymore after Owen's last night

 

[Professor]

This is a regret waiting to happen. 😁

I would say yes

I’m one of those that swapped Lloyd for Crisp - was swayed by the fact he never misses a game, disappointing best describes it so far

10/969 w McGovern and Durdin onfield - Steele, Gawn and Crisp all underperforming

Captain Touk is going to bring it home strong, can’t see any way the Eagles can stop him or the Suns unfortunately

This is where I'm going.

The ruck rollercoaster has been pretty wild already though. Wednesday I was cursing having Gawn, Thursday I was at least glad I didn't have Darcy, and now if you did you won big because you either went Marshall or you got Hayes E!

I needed a WC player, now I have one!

I can't see why, he definitely played

 

[Darkie]

Daicos 99, my first failure

No sense of occasion from CD, but I don’t mind it if it keeps him hungry.

That moment when you realise you've outsmarted yourself:

R: Grundy Marshall Hayes
F: English

Thinking behind it that one of the 'main' rucks misses then English can swing in - and if it's Marshall that misses then Hayes very likely to play assuming not injured.

The actual outcome being no sensible way to get Hayes onto the field if he keeps it up.

Not the worst problem to have (which after 33% of round 1 are Crisp and Steele!), but annoying anyway.
