    Round 12 Discussion

    That's massive for those who have him. At least it's not a wishy-washy 1-2 week injury. Going to mean almost everyone has Goldy and Gawn!!!

    Defenders 2016

    I got in Lee instead of Collins. Was looking like a genius after the Freo game. Now it's a disaster. No matter, unlikely I was every going to trade either out anyway and they would have sat at D8 for insurance purposes only.

    Round 12 Discussion

    I actually backed them today at $5.25 and put a few multis through them. Their last 7 losses have been to top 8 teams + the Demons, so not as bad as it seems initially. Tigers aren't real good and just the sort of match the Tigers would lose. I don't know anyone who'd be crazy enough to back...

    Round 12 Discussion

    Cheers, that's what it sounded like. His heat-map is interesting, very little in the centre square and nothing in the centre circle. Mostly half-back and wings from the looks of it.

    Round 12 Discussion

    A lot of people with predicted scores 2500+ around the place. Personally my prediction is around 2450 which I'd be happy with. A few of my uniques had good games - Pittard (129), Hoff (92), Lyons (109), Bont (127) - but probably countered by not having Double-Danger. Also regretting bringing...

    Bye Rounds

    Not specifically related to byes, but was thinking at the end of the byes bringing in a bottom-priced non-playing loophole player. The Bombers look like the perfect team - assuming they play Sunday when the round 23 fixture is finalised, they'll play Sunday every week after the byes except for...

    Round 12 Discussion

    Did anyone watch Lions v Freo? Just wondering what Rocky's game was like? Only watch small portions and didn't sight him. He got 34 touches and wasn't tagged but didn't do much SC-wise until he junked it up in the last quarter.

    Round 12 Captaincy

    Likewise. Took Bont's 127 thinking at worst it could cost me 50 points at most. Nope.... make that 102 points :( I had the right strategy. My loophole was playing Sat night so Bont was really the only guy I could VC. C was Gawn vs Danger - Witts+Grundy named for Monday so would have picked...

    Take the 127 from Bont?? Think I'll have to...

    Round 12 Discussion

    Most irrelevant game ever tonight, real and fantasy? I have no players involved tonight. My team's winning by 58 points at HT which is the only reason I'm still watching...

    Round 12 Captaincy

    Yes but Hanley's a fair bit quicker than Barlow. Rocky might be a bit more his speed....

    Round 12 Captaincy

    Who are people going with this week? No Friday night options.... Thinking Bont into Gawn. Only issue is Gawn only scored 105 when they played the Pies earlier in the year and Witts is on the extended bench. If Witts isn't named I'll stick with it. Otherwise it's Bont into Danger.

    Round 12 Trades

    I think I'm going to reverse and go Suckling instead of going early on Trengove. I jumped on Howe a few weeks ago in the backline so having that swing without necessarily hanging on to Walla and Adams is appealing. That will only be the 5th time I've reversed trades so far this week....

    Round 12 Trades

    Main weakness is bench cover for this week in the forwards. Remember Hall is a round 13 bye as well so won't play the next 2 weeks - up to you personally what you do with him, everyone has differing opinions. But, you probably can roll the dice for this week and just hold, especially given...

    Rookies 2016

    I'm actually going to bypass Collins and pick Tom Lee instead. Just think Collins might be a 50-something scorer and Lee more of a 60-something. I got Tucker last week so 2 FURL defenders makes me nervous also. Have not many round 13 players so happy to carry another. Lonergan -> Lee Brown ->...

    Bye Structure - My plans and strategy

    At the moment my byes give me 20/18/18 each round. However, next week probably 3 downgrades of Smith/Kerridge/Lyons to rookies which will effectively give me 23 for round 13. Then 3 post-bye premiums come in for round 14 which gives me at least 18 for both 14 and 15.

    Round 12 Trades

    People with Goldy and NicNat must be feeling pretty nervous right about now.... :eek:

    Round 12 Trades

    Stef will be about $350k after the byes. Just ridiculous. I'm tempted to bring him at R3 just as a backup :confused:

    Injuries/Late outs

    Both were graded as intentional and low-impact which seems right to me, both seemed to have sufficient force. Didn't see the follow-up of Lynch's one so not sure if he got straight up or stayed down for a while, if he did then could argue it was medium-impact. Hawkins was high contact...

    Round 12 Trades

    Lonergan and Brown need to go. So far have done Lonergan -> Collins. I do want to offload (downgrade) Brown as well but there doesn't look to be many options. Hopefully Lonergan might miss this week and I can hold for now and trade out Brown. Next week the plan will be Smith -> Trengove and...
