2015; SuperCoach Cup (NEWS+ Subscribers only)

[toxic]

Shaw, Higgins, Murphy, TMac, Simpson
GAJ, Beams, Jelwood, Barlow
NN
Zorko, Dusty, Buddy

vs

Gibson, Laird, Hodge, Ibbo, Lever*
GAJ, Wines, Parker, Hanley
Maric
Goddard, Gawn, Deledio

* He has Lever on the bench
One would assume he'd trade Beams and GAJ, given he has Fyfe out. Assuming Steele covers us both there.

All in all, I like my chances. Lots of PODs.

Pray buddy misses again

 

[Jiska]

Pray buddy misses again

Not too worried if he plays

 

[NinjaSwan]

Buddy will kick 5 and score 120*



* I've been saying this every week for the past month

Even so I think I'd be favourite.

Favourites lose though.

Hooker - Picken
Geary - Docherty
Danger - Ward
Priddis - Rocky
Mundy - Steven
Thompson - Wines
Maric - Nic Nat
Mckernan - Buddy

We both have Ablett, Fyfe & Mitchell. He wins the midfield battle on current form.

The biggest question out of that is:

How the **** have I been knocked out and there's still a live team that has hooker, geary and mckernan???

You win this one IMO

I'd be looking out for Buckaroo Bonzai, he gets all sorts of pods popping out of nowhere.



(Yes, I can vouch for the fact that the film is a hell of a lot better if you watch it after a few pipes)

 

[Jiska]

Oh * off my opponent has Deledio as well to start with, and then made him VC.

EAFD.

 

[juddola]

Good start for my opponent, he had Maric.

 

[Jiska]

Good start for my opponent, he had Maric.

So do I.

 

[juddola]

So do I.

He traded out Mckernan and Ablett for Bartel and Bennell. VC on danger.

So it looks like the prick traded in Deledio for GAJ and put the VC on him.

So the matchups are now:

Shaw, Higgins, Murphy, TMac, Simpson
Beams, Jelwood, Barlow

Zorko, Dusty (97), Buddy

vs

Gibson (81), Laird, Hodge (113), Ibbo, Lever*
Priddis, Wines, Parker, Hanley
Maric (117)
Goddard, Gawn

 

[Jiska]

Higgins with 138 can EAFD. Was looking pretty good until then, even with Jelwoods 171. Too close for comfort with both those big scores.

37pts + Murphy, Barlow, Shaw

vs

Wines, Goddard, Ibbotson and **

** Do I take Levers 60 or bank on McKenzie if not sub?

 

[Jiska]

I could also put Steele on the ground and risk him over Hanley's 80, but think I'll bank, the 80

Considering a massively huge risk in trading Fyfe to Shaw as well. Think Fyfe will miss next week.

 

[Jiska]

Gingy toxic DuckYeah TheOz Kadog GOAUS! Sir Skid big bootaaaaah Anyone??

 

[Sir Skid]

If it was me I'd bank Lever & Hanley scores. McKenzie 1st game back will likely get one of the vests.
Steele may get higher but not muck imo whereas he could get a lot lower if injured or subbed.

I would bank Hanley's 80 points. Hold Fyfe. You will need him to be any chance of winning this comp, regardless if he misses again next week.

Keep hanleys score

Only trade fyfe if you cannot win without doing it

Luckily GWS and Freo play last so I'll have a better idea by then

What if McKenie doesn't get the vest?? Should I back him to beat Lever's 60?

 

[Jiska]

Nope. Captain Goldy saluting.

Yep, i concur with Toxic.. I think if you are desperate for the points that moving him on could generate the win this week, but would also depend if you can bring him back in next week? I think fyfe is apart of a complete midfield..

And bank Hanleys score, 80's are near passes..

Tough jam, 37 points down and relying on two rookies to pull out 80's.. Thats why the shaw move could punch in a win n the rookies scores mightnt matter is much..
