Discussion 2022 Round 7: Teams & In Game Discussion

[mike89]

That was a horrendous quarter from GC as a whole. Touk definitely not the only one dropping off tackles.

 

[AngryAnt]

Not sure who's the worst of my starting picks this season?

1. Ridley
2. Whitfield
3. Touk

You wouldn't even trade Touk in now even at his price unless there is clear form turnaround. It's shocking how he has regressed from round 3, first two rounds he was outstanding.

 

[Gruffles]

& fumbling easy ground balls

So unlike him 🤦🏻‍♂️

People told me no way was his spike form due to contracts, that's what they said, he is an endurance machine they said. Untaggable they said.
The second coming of Jesus was mentioned.

TAKE ME BACK MR MACRAE, PLEASE FORGIVE MY STUPIDITY!

 

[bluesbrothers]

I would almost be dropping Miller if I was Gold Coast. Zero tackles in two games in a row. Constantly turning the ball over. His defensive work in this game around the stoppages has been terrible. Cost one goal, and almost another to Crisp.

 

[Rowsus]

I've owned Miller since Round 1.
I've been wanting to trade him out the past 2 or 3 Rounds, but had bigger fires to put out.
I love him as a player, but he's clearly not right at the moment. He's obviously carrying one of those "Well, we'll keep playing him, as it's not going to get any worse, while he's out there" type injuries. His running is down, his ball use is down. He's not getting to contests he used to. He's not getting away from contests with the ball like he used to.
While he's in this condition, he's going to be a 95-105 type player.
2 weeks ago, his price was still $627k. After today it will be around $560k, on it's way to $480-$510k.
I've been burning trades due to the aforementioned fires to put out, so haven't had the opportunity or luxury of dealing with him, and in 2-3 weeks it becomes pointless anyway. He's looking like he will get slingshotted out of my team, at his Rnd 13 bye.

Quarter Time Scores
Round 7 2022

 

[Shannon]

I can't be alone in never have even considering Brodie as a keeper at any stage?
Cogs on the other hand...

Brodie & Cogs are the least of my worries lol, they can stay in my fwd line for awhile yet.
There is a big bearded ruck god that is punishing me badly for not keeping the faith that is a far bigger issue followed by Touk’s serious scoring drop since the opening rounds 😞

 

[madmunza]

Brought in Miller also arrg

 

[manyproblems]

Something gotta be up with Touk. Never seen him give up on second efforts until the past few weeks.

Last week his 4th quarter was very good, sprinting for contests/off the ball which saved his score. Hopefully we see it. He's absolutely destroyed my AF team, just scraping for respectable for SC.

 

[Herbie66]

Did Begg or Cameron get our sole HO ?

 

[Tamuhawk]

Might end up trading Miller and keeping Rowell at this rate.

 

[Vicwood]

Honestly what has happened to Miller. Uncontested mark drops it cold, a 7 year old could have held that. I’ve had enough first rage trade coming next week. 3 quarters to sort your self out Miller,

Miller over MaCrae. Maybe next year I will learn from this catastrophe.

 

[Shannon]

That’s better Touk!

 

[doc ron]

Is it me or is Gold Coast getting reamed by the umps? A lot of non decisions that should have been paid.

 

[Vicwood]

Just seems to be the way. Sign a big contract and into cruise mode.
Just a bystander….
Miller *** Get amongst it.

 

[McLovin]

Good to see Moore and Howe getting punished for gambling every time and refusing to go near an opponent. They might be good players, but I wouldn't say they're good defenders.

 

[AngryAnt]

Love Rosas' tackling, always has a crack

 

[bluesbrothers]

Good few minutes for Rosas

 

[GrainFedBeef]

Love Rosas' tackling, always has a crack

There was about 18 points in all of that effort for Rosas, pacer, tackles, always moving around a stoppage.

re Touk, his kicking is still elite, did ok around the stoppage then.

 

[Grundogging]

Good to see Moore and Howe getting punished for gambling every time and refusing to go near an opponent. They might be good players, but I wouldn't say they're good defenders.

Hold on a minute, Moore is an excellent man on man defender and has been so almost ever since he went back.
