I reckon it might be worth it. I had Landon on the bench last year when he scored > 100 and didn't bring it onto the ground. I regretted it last year, so think I will bring in Hamling to get the score this year.
Mcintosh-yay
Simpson-Happy
Martin-Not too concerned
Not starting Cripps or Smith-Win
Not starting Deledio/Maric-Win
Not starting Docherty-Rowsus talked me into him, but I was never going to pick him honestly
Seems low for Maric thought he was better then an 84. Really got on top of Wood in the second half. Almost had him myself but swapped to NN last minute, its a long season see if it pays off.
Had that last year and it sucked big time - didn't want to do it this year, especially on a line where there are scarce playing rookies like the backline. Mids it might be ok, if he is DPP and cheap.

That could still happen anyway. This way, I can bring in a donut (and not burn a trade) and wait until rookies on th bubble and then bring in the best one as a corrective trade.

I think the only reason Hamling was a chance for Round 1 was due to Fletcher Robert's injury. Then he wasn't named anyway. Could very well go the whole year without playing senior footy and since he's a KPD, he'll score average anyway.
I'll take McIntosh's score on the chin, start Saad, hope he can belt out a 70-80 and wear the 40 point loss. It's only Round 1.

Very happy with McIntosh on the field, last minute decision too.
Simpson ok I guess.
Cripps well... can't expect much.
Dusty the real crap disappointment.

Yeah not too worried either. Would've hoped for a few more but watching him closely he wasn't that great tonight so will take the 80 odd and hope he goes big over the next month.
Will be interested to see his HO to ad/disad numbers. Watched his score go up and down a bit actually and was having trouble matching the play to the points lost/gained.
