    How many starters this week?

    Yep, same. This was meant to be the good week too. All the planning in the world counts for nothing!

    How many starters this week?

    You can make all the right moves and pull all the right strings. When the SC Gods are mad, they don't hold back. My 3 trade ins this week were all subbed out and Sloane was my last upgrade. I can't wait for this goddamn sub rule to be canned.

    Final Upgrade Advice

    You could do it for anyone with DPP as long as they can be moved to that position. So hypothetically you could trade Tarrant out and move Higgins forward (if you had him) as he is def/fwd for Heath Shaw for example. They brought this rule in probably 3 or 4 years ago. It's a very handy little...

    Bye upgrades

    My final bye upgrade was bringing Tom Mitchell into the forward line. I have 20 starters and if all goes well from here then his score won't even count. Fuming.

    X vs Y

    I've had jpk every year for the last 4 years. I haven't had Goddard since he lost def status. Jpk has been so ordinary and hard to watch this year. Was good to see him get some of the ball this week though. I'd go Goddard because he's got a lot less players stealing points off him.

    Final Upgrade Advice

    Astro, did you did you know that when you're trading, you can switch dpp players between lines? So when you trade Tarrant, when it asks who you want to bring in, go to your team list and there will be an "S" next to anyone on another line who you can move into that position (so any player with...

    Final Upgrade Advice

    Depends how many trades you've got and how aggressive you want to be. Without giving it too much thought, I'd look at this week ditching lever for Edwards, swinging Steele forward for Tarrant and that should get Sloane into your mids. Should also leave you cash to turn Oxley into anyone...

    Sir Oxley subs alot!

    I've always planned on leaving him at D7 but if he only scores a 25 When I really need him then what's the point? I think I'll see how Edwards goes this week and then might paint the fence with Ox and Kmac. He didn't look too bad last night but his efficiency killed him.

    Bye upgrades

    I haven't seriously considered trading Selwood because everyone knows what he's capable of. But if he will only average 90 or so from here then surely he can't be worth keeping as an out and out premo. Pains me to say it because I love the way he goes about it. But maybe I have to take the risk...

    Same JD. I almost wish he didn't ton up last weekend because it's making me very slightly second guess whether I should ditch him or Selwood.

    John RIP

    Agreed. Hopefully the guys see this before they record, I'm sure they will pay their respects as JTB was almost part of the SCC furniture. RIP Johnny. I almost won't mind if the Hawks get up for you this year.

    Mitch Wallis

    I'd planned on upgrading Wallis to Gaz or Rocky and benching Cripps but I'm exploring options now. I know its just a form thing but I don't like the thought of ditching them for an "upgrade" and see them average 110.

    SCC #2

    A huge chunk of the league are ranked inside the top 1000. Massive. Some others look to be making a move too. I had a shocking week but somehow moved up 2000 spots and have finally cracked the top 5k. Would love for us to hang around the top 10 from here. Very achievable I think!

    I'm pretty sure the Eagles will fall over when they come up against the big boys. Hopefully for your sake they can get their supporters hopes up a bit more before that happens!

    Rate or Hate 2015 edition

    Being a Cats man I can honestly say we have some of the most fairweather supporters in the league. The bandwagon was empty in 2006. 18,000 at KP every week and we were getting smashed. Then all of a sudden every game is a sellout. They show up today for what was expected to be an easy win and...

    Mackie and cheaper DEF premiums

    Yeah I thought Smith got enough of the ball, his disposal was shocking. Seriously considering a sideways trade from kmac and loopholing between Smith and Oxley every week.

    Mackie and cheaper DEF premiums

    Beware the general with Burgoyne. Yes they have to win all their games but with their run they will still be able to manage their older guys.

    How many starters this week?

    Yeah I got Houli in for Saad this week too. Happy enough after one half but I don't wanna jinx it. Also have Macintosh though... Here's hoping Hamling doesn't have a blinder.

    How many starters this week?

    Fingers crossed the SC gods have done their worst for the week and we might still be able to make a decent fist of it.

    Bellchambers still...

    Time to go shopping. If you leave now then you'll be back and have it set up in time for the first bounce.
