There are some big scores tonight from Collingwood
Those that picked Grundy would be feeling pretty good.

Yep- some decent scores this round. I'm stoked with having Treloar (again his d/e has cooked his score) Pendles Nank and WHE
I feel like I'm going to want WHE next week. Which makes me wonder if I should move on a Hannan/Houston/Marchbank this week...
How the hell does 35 touches and 2 goals equal 83!!!!!!! Treloar's first two rounds have been unbelievable 
Edit: Changed to 108 now, phew

WTF does Treloar have to do. Can't believe he only got 83
Wouldn't surprise me if his and Nank's scores suddenly went up. I had them scoring 121 each

At least he's an easy swap if Taranto spuds it up again this week. Im in the same bot
Starting with WHE was probably my biggest win so far. His role is very SC friendly as that link up player running up and down the wing, he's surprised me he can take a contested grab too! I don't want to get too far ahead of myself but he could end up being a keeper, if not one of the final upgrades
Don't have him & probably can't get him in but he's impressed me a bit thought he was pretty light weight and soft but goes in hard (for his role) and has good skills which standout in that rabble, like him more as a back flank but looks like they need him up forward.
yes this cooled my rage as wellHow the hell does 35 touches and 2 goals equal 83!!!!!!! Treloar's first two rounds have been unbelievable

6 clangers & I'm assuming very low kicking efficiency that being said he should be rewarded for find the ball the way he does, seems a bit unfair that him getting the ball in traffic, under pressure but not contested is the same as say a flanker getting the ball 50M on his own.

It's purely clangers and poor disposal. He does have a tendency to butcher the ball at times. The whole Pies team were guilty of that. Amazed with WHE's score given how many times he kicked it directly to the opposition under no pressure. Maybe CD need to start doing unforced clangers and forced clangers?
Yep i second the love of last nights games in a SC view. The game itself was pretty horrible but scores from popular players was great.
I only had Adams, Nank & Butler, rolled the dice with Butler and reasonably happy with his score.
Watched him closely last night, and he seems to be in the right spot during the flow of play, but just wasn't yet in the link up on several occasions. So i can see him improving his scoring output the more he plays in the middle, and his team mates use him a little more.

The Tiges were very fortunate that Pendlebury is the only Collingwood player who knows how to kick.
Reminds me of a couple of years ago when the Tiges still had Delidio ... if it wasn't a hospital pass you knew that Lids had kicked it.
125 is the minimum I would take from vice captain loop, so personally I would roll the dice and stick with Danger. Keep in mind the last time the Cats and North played, Danger had 48 disposals and 229 sc points. Could of course backfire, but for mine you have more to lose by not going with Danger.
Some years I've when there haven't been many reliable superprimium players around I've used 120 as a benchmark. This year I really want 130 ... but I probably would lock in 125. Danger looks good enough and North bad enough that yeah I think I'd be putting the c on Dangrr
I actually left Treloar out of my starting team because he is such a butcher. He's getting so much of the damn thing I think it is still going to hurt me.
