Yeah, I’m hoping for a bounce back next week. It’s pretty standard for anyone I ever trade in to have a down week... I should be used to it by now 🙄
At least I avoided Cameron (I’m a Shrek owner) 😅
I hear ya! Gawn straight to Cameron for me...next loser! lol Shrek should bounce back for you this week with a big ton.

20 / 1895. (Laird.)

Dropped 18 points playing the straight bat fielding Cowan over Constable missing Wilmot's score, but slept well last night knowing I wont have to worry about the red vest.
All eyes on Bowes today and will have to find a replacement ruck also. :rolleyes:

Watching live, was stunned there wasn't an injury, thought the tackle itself combined was dangerous. only thing players could argue is it was independent actions. Jai's chicken wing was obvious and reminded me of incident, I think Chris Judd. Should get a fine.
If the AFL are serious he gets a week minimum

Buts it's the AFL so who knows

Reckon I'm up for the N.A.SC.A award this week

20/1662 Darcy (C) and Ginbey to come

Redman 49
Cogs 58
Worpel 45

Doc 87
Bont 89
Roma 78


Ratios completely screwed my team and it's pretty hard to find any shining lights right now.

One good move was trading Uwland for Michallanney and fielding him for 82

A 170 from Shrek and 100 from Ginbey might ease my pain somewhat.

Trainwreck of a round continues. Will be lucky to crack 1900.

Premo Bont scores sub 90.
Brought in Cameron.
Worpel goes sub 50.
Tossing up who to captain between Parish & Marshall. Didn't matter either way as their ratios were both atrocious.
Marshall C nevertheless.
Hunter Clark posts his best score of the year as a pure onballer - 80. GTFO of my side.

Have 490k in the kitty that I need to get onto the field asap.

Many either have or brought in Worpel and Ziebell, any thoughts on the sub standard games.

Worpel - CBAs ok at 57% (previously 54% and 77%). More possessions HFF, do we put it down to the rare game Hawks win, not providing the link up role as much.

Ziebell - normal amount of kick outs of 5/5.

19/1,849 - Laird

Witts, Chandler & Ginbey.

Sounds like quite an eventful day yesterday! I was out for most of the day so only catching up om this thread now.

It was definitely a round of zig or zag for most of us. LDU and DCameron were definitely strong considerations for my team but required some surgery to get there. In the end, I went with Freoshaw, Constable & Chesser to NDaicos, Ziebell & Chander which on the surface it's a net positive for my team.

Those new toys didn't exactly excite but I'm grateful that they got through their games so far.

Like many coaches here, I can't afford to contuinually plug up holes in my team, however, it's not in my nature to just allow my team to meander through the early part of a season. It's back to the drawing board to figure out the best cause of action for my team going forward.

Players under scrunity are Docherty, Worpel & JHF.

19/1750 - Laird.

Also missed Chandler because of my indecision on which of Constable v Cheeser out, so I left it to today to sort but forgot I needed to move Davey into the mids to allow the trade. Watch that stuff up cost me... :cautious:

Brutal start to the season with injuries, up and down rookies and prem spudding. Only really English and Daicos that have been consistent over three rds so far.
