Latest article about Danger possibly playing deep forward, is this a concern for captaincy or nothing to worry about ?
stoo
August 12, 2016 at 7:33 pm
Nah, he’ll just kick 10 and rest in the midfield.
I’m tempted to pick a Friday Captain for the first time in years. Hunter or Adams… must resist…
hello
August 12, 2016 at 7:25 pm
Sloane or danger?
Stevo
August 12, 2016 at 7:34 pm
which 2 to bring in out of roo, gray, hall and dahlhaus? Still unsure because while roo is great there’s a chance of rest, gray was poor and doesn’t have a good run. Hall could be great especially with essendon this week. At this stage I’ve got dahl in for sure due to price and I think he’ll be great especially with their run. Thoughts?
Stevo
August 12, 2016 at 7:34 pm
also only the next 2 weeks matter for me as my finals end next week.

cheers bucks for playing adams in defence, there goes my hopes for the 25k
Jake
August 12, 2016 at 10:30 pm
Adams played through an injury all night. 80 isn’t bad considering

Thanks Grundy justifying my Naismith trade which puts me in a handy lead in my final

Went Scully>Sidey this week and Sidey was 72 at Half time to only get 91 is f**king pathetic. Can’t get 28 points with a picken tag.
Bloody hope my trade of Gray>Lynch pays off.
stoo
August 13, 2016 at 6:37 am
Sidey has been doing that for years!
mfawcett
August 13, 2016 at 8:53 am
better 91 then 19?
Kyle
August 13, 2016 at 1:09 pm
Yeah but im ranked inside the top 100 and trying to improve rankings with PODS so if Scully+Gray outscore Sidey+Lynch would of been stupid trades

Two really close league finals this week that I think may come down to captain choice…I left the c on Danger this week while my 2 opponents…you guessed it went with the Pig and with 94 (188 for my opponents) at half time I reckon its fair to say I may well be right up a well known creek without a bloody paddle…Just gotta hope that Danger is on and interested tomorrow…

Can this be true?
12 goals to half time

I was 7 points off the maximum 922 match day points for the Bris Car game.
D – Simpson, Doc
M – Rocky(c), Curnow
R – Kruz
F – Zork, Robbo
Kruzer instead of Martin: -4
Doc instead of Tuohy or Hanley: -3
Daniel
August 13, 2016 at 4:45 pm
Ranked 38.
Daniel
August 13, 2016 at 4:49 pm
I’ll blame the umpire. 5 frees against for Kruzer. Take 2 of those away I’m only 3 pts off the maximum.

Heath F%^&*G Shaw!!! Traded out Vince for Docherty’s 74 which may be bad enough but to think I was contemplating Shaw instead of Vince!!???!! And on top of that Goldstein in for Jacobs?? What a crap week for trade ins on my behalf. Yep, I’m mad!!!

August 13, 2016 at 5:41 pm
lol, and I will stand corrected if he manages a good second half. When I wrote this a few minutes ago he was sitting on only 20 and lowest scoring Giant at around the 30 minute mark of the second quarter:)

Nearly choked on my juice from laughing at the title “Wingard on ice”
44 players in the game and Wingard is the one to get injured. Fucking marvellous.

1900 with 6 to come. Enright, Danger, Salone, Jelwood, Merret, Dusty.
If i had Max Gawn over Stef Martin. I’d be confident in topping this round :P

Big scores coming up, need Danger to beat Rocky, unlikely :(
stoo
August 14, 2016 at 2:30 am
That is massive! Thought I was sitting pretty on 1951 with Laird, Danger, Merrett and Dusty. May not even move up (1600 before Friday)

Into Grand final in one league I am calling it early 1800 with Dusty Danger Z Merret Sloane Menegola Duncan to Play.. my opponent 937 with 11 to go 5 players the same as mine.. Looking at 2300 2390 Happy with that..

Also does any1 remember the ruck discussion i brought up a few weeks back. About Rucks for 2017. I was saying Max Gawn was a must pick. Then the 2nd pick was up for grabs. Alot of people were saying Stefin. And some where saying not if Archie Smith is in the team it’ll be the same as when Trent West was there. Well if Brisbanes game was anything too go by, that looks like thats what they’ll be doing. I mean come on, they beat carlton… I don’t think Brisbane will go back to solo rucking when they desprately need a big forward. And if a swapping archie smith from forward to ruck is the best brisbane have then it looks too stay that way. Grundy as number 2? I like him, we can all see improvement, but in the games i’ve seen him play, he gets beat too much for taps. You may say we’ll pick him for his around the ground work. But isn’t that what we all did this year with Stef? I dunno. Open to discussion… (Goldstein could have a better year next year than this) :)

geez, only one in the top 10 that put the c on rocky! c’mon Sloaney I’m counting on you for a big 2nd half!
JimmyO
August 14, 2016 at 6:53 pm
Not happy. Had c on Rocky till I rolled back my team to change my trades. Forgot to make him captain again so ended up with Dangerfield as captain. Bugger. I’ve slipped out of top 1000
