Discussion 2022: Round 1 Teams & In Game Discussion

[Zhead13]

None of their sh1t has aged well either, what were people thinking in the 80's??

My first post of the year is to defend Dire Straits, weird...Telegraph Road is great, aged fine to me. It's either 14mins of pleasure or serious pain. 😉

Just waiting for my rookie on the bench to outscore my premium again in this game.

Riding the Ridley wagon for the 3rd straight year but this time there is some doubt

Somehow this game is super important for my draft teams and so meh for my SC!

No
No
No

Pies need to Blood next wave of mids
Lip, Tay JDG, Maynard, Crisp

Nick D is already controlling play and directing other players - staggering understanding of the game

Pendles there to ensure our first line of attack is structured correctly

Daics, Howe, Pendles.

Unbelievable decision makers there

Need Roughie bask as Madge is......yep he's not quite up to it

Pendles is down back because he too old to be a mid, Crisp sucks at clearance and ND will play unreal anywhere.

Crisp wouldnt have won your BnF if it wasnt for his work down back

Pendles getting really close to the cliff. His downward trend in the midfield is well established. It's to omuch to expect him to blitz off half back because he isn't going to blitz anywhere consistently anymore.

Crisp already played at least 30% mid, hence his designation as Mid/Def by CD. He's had a crap game to start the year. I traded Lloyd to him with a few hours to spare so am not too happy about it but will hold for at least another week. Not much went right for him last night and so it could have been one of those games.

Stewart huge early

I know Dire Straits have released some dire songs but they are not as crappy as these dirges:

Who Let The Dogs Out by Baha Men.
We Like To Party! By Vengaboys.
I'm Blue by Eiffel 65.
Tubthumping by Chumbawumba
You’re Beautiful by James Blunt

Yeah. My generation likes to pump up the 90s as being some sort of awesome time for music. My response to that is usually, "tell ya what I want what I really reaaly want/So tell me what ya want what ya really really really want/I wanna, I wanna I wanna, I really really really really really really really wanna...."

Then I give them some Mmm Bop and rest my case

Dawson swap is looming large....
As long as Dawson doesn't play crappy

Good luck Maso!

5 touches for Stewart already, we love to see it!

 

[Raaraab]

Hayes - Wowee, who saw that coming. Last quarter is perhaps significant though as he didn't go on for a monster and his role isn't ideal but if he scores like that, who cares. What I love is his workrate and ground level efforts, there's definitely some Stef Martin or Mitch Clarke about his ruckwork, not going to do much in the ruck itself but going to follow up and work really hard around the ground. What I liked most was that he did most of his scoring as a forward, especially on the lead and that's the only way he can co-exist with Ryder, they give up a lot in the ruck to play him over Ryder so really he's got to be a forward in the best 22 and can pump his tyres on the games that Ryder misses, and there will be a fair few of those. Great debut!

To be clear . This was an extract of Wogitalia’s excellent review

That’s why don’t pick Merrett- he gets nothing paid.

Oh it’s all pain over here 😂

What has happened to Essendon midfield, I did not know the end of the season trip had started..

HELLO SuperCoach, I missed you.
Last night at 8.50pm, Bermagui township lost power and internet server, no Mobile service, no TV, but I'm back on!
Finally, it paid off keeping all those redundant items that I have. I dug out my 50yo 'SHARP 10-Transistor 2 Speaker' radio, only has AM, but I managed to hear the rest of the STK vs COL game.

Now to catch up. I will have to learn speed reading.

The 90's were pretty good! Pixies, Sonic Youth, Nirvana! Every generation has its quirky little pop songs that appeal to the 12-20 age group and no one else. I’m pretty sure Dance Monkey is going to be loathed in 20 years time too!

SDK is outscoring Ridley....

Ah, the old Wireless! At least you’re old enough to remember there is such a thing!
