Discussion Round 6: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Ironhawk]

4 / 404.

Grundy (VC), Sicily, Mitchell and Ceglar

Projected to win 9/10 matches, but I'll be surprised if I win even half of them.

 

[Erek22]

I am considering selling next week, down grade to what I consider to be 105+ average, then upgrade to another premium I’m defended.m

Much needed DEF for next week.

Getting some nice potential rookies in Simpson and Day so far this round.

 

[Kidult]

Well, the last time Mr Grundy did not get a lockable VC score, I turned to Senor Nic Nat to save my round. I think there is quite a good chance I will be doing the same this week.

But but he is unfit and lazy according to ROB.

 

[Darkie]

Mason Cox the only Pie not to take a mark.

Not the best thing to say but at least ROB owned it as opposed to the old hacked phone routine

Yes they have had a tough draw, but they will still finish near the bottom if they keep playing like they did in this game, last week's game or against the Cats. Played some awful footy in those matches, not just getting beaten by better sides.

Hawks are so hot and cold, Wingard struggled to get into the game, disposal not great, Mitchell a shadow of previous years, great skills to get it out of the contest by hand, probably affects his scoring, doesn't look damaging, just chip kicks sideways, backwards and forward. Poppi should retire too slow. No ruck dominance, do they have any young lads in the reserves? Definitely time to blood the youngsters. Should be doing this on the Blues. ?

447/4

Had the E on Ceglar only because I couldn’t loop my forward rookies. Now I’ll just play all three - Aarts, Mahony & Taylor - if one doesn’t score 43, surely they won’t be far off!

 

[Vicwood]

Mason Cox the only Pie not to take a mark.

Was amazed when I saw his name on the team list. The club must be getting memberships from the USA. Just cannot judge the flight of the ball.

 

[BomberSam]

3/521

Neale (VC), Danger and Grundy.

Enjoying it while it lasts, I know I'll still find a way to finish on 1862.

4/313

Sicily , Starcevich

Grundy (VC)
Ceglar

It looks like we have 2 other rucks, Reeves who has been in the system a few years and Brooksby. I think both are a long way from AFL level though.

We should be playing a few more younger players, especially with no VFL this year. I hope they get their chance in coming weeks, especially if it is the compressed schedule they are looking at.

@Goodie's Guns seems to have the inside word on team selections, maybe he can enlighten you further - it's all guess work from my end.

 

[Connoisseur]

2/323

Played: P Dangerfield (VC- Banked), B Starcevich
Yet to play:
Friday: B Grundy, T Mitchell and J Sicily
Saturday: T Doedee, R Laird, E Yeo, H Bennell, J Simpkin, C Taylor, M King, L Ryan, C Petracca and D Smith
Sunday: C Rozee, L Whitfield, M Pickett, J Macrae, P Cripps, M Pittonet and S Docherty

Sneaky VC on Danger due to wanting to C Grundy this round. Pleasantly surprised by the performance and is now starting to compensate for the poor decision to start him/Mitchell/Macrae/etc over Neale.

As long as Sicily exceeds his total scored on debut last week then I should be in a good position to post my highest score this season considering the scoring potential of the remainder of my side.

5/684
Played: P Dangerfield (C), B Starcevich, T Mitchell, B Grundy and J Sicily.

Yet to play:
Saturday: T Doedee, R Laird, E Yeo, H Bennell, J Simpkin, C Taylor, M King, L Ryan, C Petracca and D Smith
Sunday: C Rozee, L Whitfield, M Pickett, J Macrae, P Cripps, M Pittonet and S Docherty

Very happy with the performance of Sicily compensating for his debut last round. New recruit Yeo in action tomorrow as well as the return of Bennell, which will make for a very interesting day with 10 involved.

 

[IDIG]

great start

Yeah thought I was going ok until I saw some scores posted on here. It’s feeling far less ‘great’ now

 

[7/11]

4/407. Wingard the only disappointment so far. Grundy passable even though he was my VC. Taking a risk throwing the C on Nic Nat tomorrow, so fingers crossed it comes off!

[Ben's Beasts]

5/593 (c)

Absolute disaster.

Andrews and Ceglar with a pair of 43’s, just putrid.

Hopefully the rest of my team can make up some ground after such a poor start.

 

[Erich1036]

Grundy VC finally failed and I don't have Gawn (or Neale), nervous times ahead...
