Round 1: Teams and In Game Discussion

[AngryAnt]

Pendles scaled down to 113, Swan to 111.

 

[Ben's Beasts]

15/1315 (c)

Nic Nat's 93 on the pine due to my own stupid stuff up.

YUK!

 

[bianchije]

rocky as captain, going to struggle to break 2100

[Nathan]

Is there any other sport where you blow out your knee running in a straight line?

 

[Lost In The Sky]

Hope he comes good. Got talked into him over a couple of rookies this weekend. Think he'll be better at home?

I would hope so. He looked nothing like the way he has been training and playing in the NAB cup. Hopefully just put it down as a shocker and you can bet Simmo will be all over the boys after some of the butchering done in the second half.

 

[Ledgenads]

1139 with 10 players including Shaw, Newnes, Griffen, Lonie, Saad, Goldy, Fyfe, Higgines, Clark and Selwood to play, good enough?

 

[Zimmer]

I'm gna look at the bright side so far, Mcintosh,Saad,Vandenberg,Heeney locked into there respective 22's for the short term.

Yep, I stacked my team with rookies. First couple of weeks is the time to cut the wheat...etc.

 

[Lukus193]

1230/13 (c)

Highest score is McIntosh, but at least he's on the ground.

Gibson, Kelly, Ibbotson, Macmillan, Ward, Griffen, Goldstein, Clark and Swallow to come.

What do we think will be a good score?

 

[doc ron]

13/1202 C ah well a few guns left so will be happy with something around 1900-2000

leaders will be around 2300 maybe

wonder what carnage tomorrow holds

 

[AngryAnt]

The Ladbrokes girl is a spud

That's Sloane's missus.

 

[aj74]

Thought it was one of Pendles's quiet games. But lookign at it, 25 stats at 76% in the wet with 5 tackles, 5 clearances and 8 I50s. So yeah ok. Swan didn't deserve 111. Did some good work intercepting towards the end so must have racked up a few for that because I can't see him scoring much for the way he disposed of it.

Rick would have got a bunch from that missile he kicked from 55. I50, effective long kick, goal at a crucial moment. Did some other decent stuff as well. Talked myself out of picking him up though. Didn't think Leuenbegers game was worth 100 but there you go

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

I'm glad I stuck with Nic Nat but that score is seriously underwhelming

 

[jobeywatto]

1110/13.

Fyfe (c), Dangerfield, Griffen, Gray, Kelly, Goldstein, Henderson, Ellis-Yolman, Clark to come. Heeney and McIntosh both annoyingly on bench.

Not sure if that's good, average, or bad this round... weird opening week.

 

[PC]

Take Pendles 113 or roll the dice on Sloane? Gray? Selwood?

 

[Grant]

1395 with 8 left. Definitely sign off for 2200 now but expecting 2100.

Should have picked McIntosh as captain. Lol.

 

[Zimmer]

Just as an aside:

S.Sidebottom 19 12 7 11 100% 2 1 5 5 0 0 3 0 2 0 2 0 0 136

This guy is a machine. Should be in more teams from the outset.

Sadly he has a broken thumb and will miss some time now

[anfa18]

1227/13(c) - Newnes, Johnson, Fyfe, Selwood, Goldstein, Gray, Bartel, Anderson and Clark to play. I think i'm looking at something between 2000-2100.

Lost 90 points by starting Miller and Salem over Heeney and Hogan.

 

[aj74]

11/893 over here and spitting chips. Carrying Hibberd, Dusty, Salem and Cripps (the wrong one). Also have McIntosh and Saad on the bench and neither are emergencies (Oxley and Miller are though... grrr)

Bright lights have been Pendles, Swan, Vandenberg, Bennel and Heeney. Pass marks to Nicnat and Brett Goodes.

Think I'll go Griff against St Kilda for the captain rather than take Pendles 113. Maybe Goldy vs Adelaide, but expect Jacobs will prove a tough opponent. So 12 scores to come with CEY as the only rookie and Clark. If I can avoid the carnage, I should be able to get to 2100 easily enough you'd think.
