Round 1 Discussion (Dedicated to Jiska)

[Mitchell54]

Balta my only real poor performer. Should have fielded Parker instead. Hope Balta gets moved back with Rance injured as I think that suits him better anyway.

Hoff and English ruck combo wins you money? This game can go and get ******

Apparently Jack Martin is the key to winning cash...

Who saw the GC game? Was Collins taking the piss?

Top rank player has Jamie Macmillan

Is this like 4D chess or something

 

[Blackhawk42]

How are you all seeing your rank?? It looks so different this year and giving me the ranks of everyone in the country and not just my own.

 

[nameless]

Rank 60,281 with 2013

I'm with you there.

I swap Collins for Drew and Macrae captain and suddenly I'm top 10,000

So it's very close, a good week next week and you're back in it.

Jacobs/Lobb ruck combo is in second place everybody...

 

[Derogue]

he also had Macmillan and Fiorini, like who would seriously have them.

 

[Marlowe]

Topped ranked for round 1 has both Jamie Macmillan and Brayden Fiorini.

You’re forgetting Jack Martin.

 

[SterlingArcher]

There are two teams ranked 78th.

Both are pretty full blown mid price madness.

Good luck.

One from my calculations fielded only Walsh as a rookie.

If I fielded a team like that I would want to win the weekly round 1 because the trade burning is about to begin.

 

[ubeaut]

Only 1 top ten team has Gawn. None have Grundy. Coincidence??

 

[King_Steele]

2165 - Cripps c

Rank: 7729

Let's revisit where these teams - and Grundy - are in round 5.

 

[JT_the_Man]

To say some of these ruck combos in the top 10 are mind boggling is an understatement.

 

[srobbo]

2260 - rank 701

Rookies take a bow.

Reasonably similar to you - 2157 thanks to my mids carrying me (Fyfe 294 Cripps 126 Crouch 138 Steele 115 - no midpricer).

And my speculative random mid-pricer that I was bullish on failed miserably too - Kent with 47. However, Parker played the role I expected Kent too (the aggressive small forward who gets the occasional midfield spurt) and wouldn't be surprised to see it reversed. Can see Kent 87 Parker 47 next week. Reckon Hanley might just get more wing time too.

Solid start. The irony of Kent being a Kent!
Missed the StK/GC game. Parker score surprised but welcomed. Fwd rookies mostly disappoint so any cash flow from them is GOLD. Having said that you’re right, the script can flip on rookies AND premos from week to week. It’s this reason why I cringe when coaches chase ‘last weeks points’. Kents want to trade Oliver etc. Back your premos for a bit before making that decision.

How did Hanley look today? Thought he’d have more involvement in the game but only had 13 touches.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Took 10 minutes to locate but ranked 13 969. Top 7%. Don't think i've started that well before. Nice.

 

[JT_the_Man]

What’s crazy is that if I didn’t drop Hoff last minute I’d be in the top 1k for the first time ever.

Thaaaaat close.

 

[TravisJohnstone]

2100 for the Womb Invaders.

Why the * do I get this score every year in round 1. Swear I'm always ranked 26k.

 

[blackshadow]

Very lucky to scrape past 2,000

 

[Marlowe]

Time to tread the trading waters.
