Moore 169 :love::love::eek:
Holmes 133 :love:
Steele 118 :)
McAuliffe 68 :)☯️

Gawn, Ryan, Serong, Flanders, Rowell, Jackson, and Clohesy to come.

Moore, wow. Well I can't say I saw this one coming! Incredible game. Almost 100 by HT and then decided to show up in the second half this week. Takes his average in my side up to 96. Goes to show how putrid he's been before today. Great POD to have this week. Holmes came into my side this week. Great to see him have a chunk of midfield minutes again. First trade in that has posted a ton straight away in a month. Steele ended up with a good score, but it was far from convincing. McAuliffe was excellent in the first half with 69, then manages -1 in the second half. Would've taken a 68 at the start of the game but it could've been much, much more.

Came into the byes expecting this round to be my worst but it is looking great so far. Hopefully I can do enough to sneak back into that top 1k. Amazing what happens when your PODs start to click.

Gawn 95 :cry:
Clohesy 47 :cry: (didn't count)

Ryan solid as always. Was going to be my captain if Daicos failed. He has probably surpassed Yeo by now as my best starting pick. Flanders has an ankle scare early but was fine and still managed a great score. Crazy consistency. Rowell came into the team this week which looked like a mistake early until he came alive in the second half. Serong disappointing. Very quiet early and by the time he started to get going the game was well over, so he didn't get many points for it. Jackson was looking like having a mare early until he kicked a couple goals which kickstarted his scoring. Such a frustrating own but he did well today. Gawn with his first real stinker. Just going to consider myself lucky that I didn't captain him this week and move on. Clohesy started well then faded. Luckily Sullivan's 61 came on for him and was nice cover. Spewing a bit though as this poor score might stuff up my planned trades.

Stoked with the week. Was expecting this to be my worst bye round with Heeney, Dunkley, Grundy, Sheezel, Green, McKercher, and the injured Rankine all missing. Looking at a healthy green arrow and back into the top 1k. Some guys who have been struggling in recent weeks came out to play this week which reflected in my score. Moore, Dale, Steele. Holmes and Rowell coming in.

A little disappointing given I was planning to be and looking strong for this bye 2 weeks ago but injuries and the rookie Byemuda Triangle took hold. Lowest counting score was Dawson (55) and dropped Clohesy (47).

Bont (C) & Daicos wallpapering over some big cracks in my team. Butters, Houston, Dawson :poop:, Serong, Stewart, Gawn, Martin all with sub par performances. Happy enough with recruits Salem & Moyle. Perplexed by Moyle’s scoring during the game. Not saying he played great but seemed to be harshly scored for many involvements. Did he even get a point for that centre clearance in the last minute? Miller pulled a decent score from nowhere but is a big worry along with a few others.

Great save by Touk. Really good start to bye rounds and team seemed to all get through uninjured/unsuspended.
Great save by Champion Data, 35 points for a non match winning goal is pure sorcery. Goal after the sirens to win the game are usually only worth about 30, he got 35 just for extending the lead from 5 to 11 with still over a minute to go.... bizarre and completely over the top scaling

Yes, when on 70 SC, let’s completely forget about the centre clearance, mark, kick and then tackle which led to holding the ball all in that same passage too..

That’s 23 AF for 35 SC when the game was on the line which sounds about right to me!

All out for 2266!

Daicos 312, Bont 186, Moore 169, Dale 132, English 131, Clark 127, Flanders 119, Steele 118, Walsh 111, Miller 108, Serong 102, Macrae 101, Young 100, Butters 98, Jackson 98, Zerrett 97, Martin 80 & Moyle 78.

(Dropped out)
Oliver 73, Freijah 66 & Sullivan 61.

Not sure if it's enough but extremely happy with the score! Only gained about 25 from the last minute Zerrett trade in. Daicos over Bont -30 points could have been very handy though. Certainly helps when PODs in Moore, Clark & Dale all pump out huge scores. Won all my leagues!
Great Score!! Genuine chance at the weekly!! Surely top 10 at least
