Discussion 2022 Round 8: Teams & In Game Discussion

[AngryAnt]

Jettisoned Brodie to Squeeze in Cripps. Crippa to repay the faith will a 35+position game 2 goals and 150 pts.

Well thats my dream anyway.

Cripps is cheap enough now to be worth it and take out his injury game and he's second only to Neale on average. Brodie wont play North every week, will be back to 80 to low 90s and Fyfe will return in a few weeks, wouldn't worry about it.

 

[Manikato1]

It's not like reporters to just say stuff without any accountability or accuracy. From what I've heard there were three or four players absent, 3 specific names. Last time I looked there are three or four Emergencies listed. Think adrian is exaggerating.

Just to clarify here. Adrian Barich is not a reporter or a journalist. He is TV presenter. And if you have ever seen him present live and attempt to read off a teleprompter or attempt to say the word "preliminary" you will know that he is, without a shadow of doubt, the worst sports presenter ever in the history of Ch 7 if not TV sports presenting in this country.

Putting this in here as I have to make the decision soon:

Parker/Short VC into Neale C (= McCartin covers Hewett, Hinge covers Ridley if out - or allows a potential Hewett trade)
or
Neale VC into Clarry/Cripps C (can field both Daicos and Ward, or McCartin, Hinge as above,
but would mean no option of Hewett trade as he would need to be my C for Neale going big.

 

[Under The Dome]

Putting this in here as I have to make the decision soon:

Parker/Short VC into Neale C
or
Neale VC into Clarry/Cripps

Neale VC into the others.

 

[Deeman1]

Think I'll loop Butters and Rosas with Dixon out, not keen on Curtis as I'd have to use a boost to get him in, plus he'll take a spot when I might want to get in Rioli/Hamilton/Stephens/Clark over the next 2-3 weeks (possibly all 4 of them)

I think you might have a problem using Dixon as a loop, but given how Butters went I'm guessing you will probably start Rosa's now anyway 😉.

 

[Connoisseur]

5/487
Played: J Dunkley, Z Butters, S Hayes, J Macrae and W Brodie

Yet to play:
Saturday: S Pendlebury (new recruit), J Short, I Heeney, L Parker, T Miller (VC), P McCartin, J Kelly, L Whitfield, S Coniglio, B Preuss, N Martin, J Ridley, J Berry, L Neale (C) and D Zorko (new recruit)
Sunday: C Oliver and P Cripps

Decided to field McCartin over the 61 from N O’Driscoll in case there is a late out (eg Ridley) rather than copping a donut from Hewett, as De Koning has now been moved forward and the timing of the fixtures is not helpful.

 

[mfchamp]

Surely Dixon has to come in for Rotham as a late change tonight? Did he (Dixon) get on the plane?

I’m wondering this too, would like flip Ladhams with Dixon to get Hayes score but seems to risky with late outs

 

[Deeman1]

Putting this in here as I have to make the decision soon:

Parker/Short VC into Neale C
or
Neale VC into Clarry/Cripps

Neale into Gawn 😉

Of those two I think I would go Neale into Clarry.

 

[Darkie]

Putting this in here as I have to make the decision soon:

Parker/Short VC into Neale C (= McCartin covers Hewett, Hinge covers Ridley if out - or allows a potential Hewett trade)
or
Neale VC into Clarry/Cripps C (can field both Daicos and Ward, or McCartin, Hinge as above,
but would mean no option of Hewett trade as he would need to be my C for Neale going big.

Neale VC just in case.

Saw this - not sure if it means Mountford will be the medi sub

Oh wow … man I think I will reverse trades & keep Dixon on the field so I get Hayes score as the emergency

[Leroy]

I can go Caldwell to anyone, whether FWD, MID or DEF. who would you go, top 3?

Top tier, then next tier for those 3 lines:

Def: Stewart; then Crisp/Short/Sicily/Hewett
Mid: Macrae, Neale, Steele, Oliver; then Mills, Laird, Brayshaw, Miller, Cripps
Fwd: Dunkley, English; then Heeney, Moore, Taranto, Libba (assuming Cogs/Brodie already)

That’s my plan.

Pretty sure they took all four emergenices. No WAFL game to worry about.

[AngryAnt]

Any chance Preuss is a late out? Copped a leg knock or something late in their game last week?

 

[BomberArmy]

Def: Stewart; then Crisp/Short/Sicily/Hewett
Mid: Macrae, Neale, Steele, Oliver; then Mills, Laird, Brayshaw, Miller, Cripps

Thanks mate, much appreciated. Currently my preferences are Stewart, Oliver/Mills or Heeney/Parker. Currently own Crisp, Short, Neale, Brayshaw and Miller from your list.

Don’t make me now worry about a late out for him…
donut time it will be if so
