Discussion 2024 Round 8: Teams & In Game Discussion

[7/11]

Trust NWM to be hanging around stoppages more noticeably the week I trade him out.

Steele handy points at the end of that quarter. Wilson nice start as well. Fingers crossed it continues.

 

[Chumpion]

If you told me Steele would have 30 points at quarter time it would have been a relief given I held him but that was extremely unconvincing. Looks reluctant to take contact when contesting the ball and seems to be chasing tails. The OOTF gift propped him up but I’m nervous. He may scrape a good score but looks a shadow of the Steele we saw in the first month or so.
Hopefully he can get a bit more involved but I’m not seeing much that makes me think he’s turned the corner..

 

[WizzFizz]

I swear if LDU gets given a clanger kick for that "OOTF"...

He would surely? How does CD record these sorts of stats given objectively he didnt kick it but the umpire effectively declared he did in order for it to be ootf

 

[Maccas marvels]

Umpire was correct with “ not 15”… it was more like a 20 metre kick….

The didn't call it a clanger. Just because umpire calls something CD are not obliged to treat it that way, they would have seen he didn't touch it.

 

[jobeywatto]

Started Comben over Wilson. Oh dear.

 

[Zimmer]

After careful consideration I think I’ll have to take Green’s VC score. You never know what might happen so I’ll bank the extra 5 points. 👌

 

[Leroy]

Started Comben over Wilson. Oh dear.

You're lucky you have the choice!
I've got them both on field

 

[Maccas marvels]

Sheezel only on 32…..
Mckercher taken his role ….Clarko/ Bevo toying with us all

 

[Tamuhawk]

I miss the Sheegull. Go back to defence plz.

 

[Tamuhawk]

Wilson so good! 100+ today plz.

 

[Connoisseur]

Perhaps I should have benched Comben and looped with R Garcia rather than benching Wilson as the loop?

Great to see J Hayes back for StK (especially for keeper league purposes).

Only $228,000 for classic.

Rookie move! I put the C straight on him!

Yep onfield here too, hoping he can post something half decent from here, looking like a bit of a spud lately, might go Comben to Hayes next week.

 

[Raaraab]

Excited by Hayes performance and contributions. Fingers crossed he stays healthy

 

[Zimmer]

Oh man, sorry.

 

[bluesbrothers]

Really surprised Clarkson has been swayed by the media commentary to play Sheezel in the mids. Has stated in his previous two press conferences, that he prefers him at half back at the moment to use his kicking skills. He played mid in the back half of last weeks game, and now today, and it is clear to me that it doesn't help North one bit. He can't use his kicking skills when he is in the contest/being tackled and having to rush.

Same here mate, it's been a long time since he's taken the field, hope he can hang around for awhile, stay healthy and still have a good career in the years he has left.

He hurt his arm/elbow in a contest early in that 2nd quarter. Not sure if it was a burner or something more serious. Either way, he might struggle for the rest of this game.
