Round 14 Discussion

[hoddo]

Everyone looking forward to the first non-bye round in weeks and salivating over those big projected scores?

I was until I looked at what could, (and therefore will), go wrong.

Worst case scenario for me ...
MBoyd doesn't get his spot back despite the big loss
Brisbane decide to give Rocky a week off to get right.
Scooter doesn't come up
Sandi doesn't come up
Buddy gets suspended (not sure if that's been decided already)

If all that happens I'd need to have either Stewart or Shazza on field along with Hannan, Greenwood and two out of Bolton, Cousins and Brown. That would see a drop of 130 in the projected score. Surprised it's not more.

InB4 donuts and carnage

Praying Scooter is alright for this week....full team on the park is nice, projection is around 2350 with no trades, but i might look at making 2.

Hopefully can make a charge now byes are done, sitting 3550th!

 

[The Lemon]

Not expecting to get near the projection. All I hope for is that Sloane can score <120 and Bont goes low 1 more time.

Then my 4 week plan will be looking like a reality.

In b4 both go 175+

Scooter to be out
Parsons to get dropped

Selwood will miss 3-4 weeks. Take that to the bank kids

What makes you say that?

What makes you say that?

It's a hamstring injury

 

[Huttabito]

It's a hamstring injury

And it's Scooter.

He won't be right for the rest of the season now.

 

[CrozaN]

It's a hamstring injury

No idea yet on severity, could just have been tightness, no confirmation its a tear or anything.

this is all we have info on his injury:
Selwood, Cockatoo injuries ‘minor’
AFL DAILY: Geelong is hopeful Thursday night casualties Scott Selwood and Nakia Cockatoo won’t miss much footy.

 

[King_Steele]

Looking forward to having a full team again!

Plan to be without him for a while.

Cute. You think you'll get a full team.

That's not how this season works.

It was tightness, off for the rest of the game as a precaution. According to Chris Scott anyways.

"Toby Nankervis (corked calf) will be closely monitored this week".

Scooter to be out

Yes
No

 

[pincrusher]

Jordan Dawson must be close to getting another chance for the swans. 35 disposals, 11 marks and 4 goals on the weekend in the two's.

Rip my forward line. Might have 24 players playing, and still cop a donut.

That could leave me with up to 6 premos out. Might as well be another bye round

I'm just trying to get my head around who would ruck for them if he was out? Up against Kreuzer this week in the form of his career.

 

[big bootaaaaah]

All my underperforming premos (which is most of my premos) need to fire big time this week to get me back in the game. Make or break week for me.
Hoping Barlow's LTI helps salvage my gaj over doc trade last week from here on in.

I'm more worried about who'll ruck for me

I have Nank too, but if he was rested for this week I do have cover. The bonus is that I could VC Danger into Kreuzer as Nank would supply the loop option.

I'm hoping Sandi will be back fit and raring to go after his long rest.

 

[Huttabito]

Worst case for me this week:

Buddy gets suspended
J.Selwood gets suspended
Nankervis misses with a corked calf
Rockliff is given a week off to get over his illness
Parsons is dropped who is my only bench cover for Nank/Buddy
Dusty's back is 100% and they give him a week off.
