Seeing that we're into the final R1 lock out now, thought I would open this up to put my cards on the table. Really hoping some of the experienced forum posters do the same, would love to see what you guys ended up locking in.

Already regretting the DThomas choice, did a backflip on a decision in the final 24hr before that game and will have to run with it for now - hope it does not burn me too badly but we'll see. Overall, not too disappointed with how it looks - but early days yet.

Great team..
 
B: McVeigh, Hurn, Swallow, McDonald, Laidler, Langford (Langdon, Georgiou)
M: Ablett, Sloane, Cotchin, M.Murphy, D.Beams, Tyson, Polec, Dunstan (Ellis, Taylor)
R: Ryder, Sandi (Hickey, King)
F: Dangerfield, Martin, Parker, Gunston, Darling, Higgins (K-Harris, Impey)

Have a $313k ruckman in the bench for backup and cash generation. May pay-off or backfire. Time will tell.
 
B: McVeigh, Mitchell, Swallow, Webster, McDonald, Georgiou, (Langford, Langdon)
M: Ablett, Pendlebury, Watson, Beams, Thomas, Tyson, Polec, Ellis, (Dunstan, Lemmens)
R: Ryder, Sandilands, (Currie, King)
F: Dangerfield, Martin, Pavlich, Rioli, Caddy, Higgins, (Rohan, JKH)

+$83,700
Played Rohan in Rioli's spot in Rd1, was hoping for a 60+ but oh well.
 
Final rd1 side
CarnthePies (2187)

B: McVeigh, Mitchell, Hibberd, Hanley, Griffiths, LMac (Langford, Georgiou)
M: Ablett C, Watson, Beams, Tyson, Michie, Polec, Dunston, XEllis (Crouch, Langdon)
R: NicNat, Sandilands VC (Currie, King)
F: Dangerfield, Harvey, Martin, Wingard, Franklin, Higgins (JKH, impey)
 
Final Side: Diamantina Drovers

B: McVeigh, Mitchell, Simpson, Malceski, Martin, Langford, (Langdon, Clurey)
C: Watson, Cotchin, Kennedy, Murphy, Beams, Polec, X.Ellis, Cunningham, (Dunstan, Michie)
R: Ryder, Sandilands, (Thurlow, King)
F: Dangerfield, Zorko, Pavlich, Dahlhouse, Higgins, McDonough, (Impey, Kennedy-Harris)

2204 (ranked 20,141) but with lots of upside. Mitchell will play much better, the Sydney players were brilliant for a half then stopped scoring in a bizarre game, Pav looked great and would have topped a ton if he kicked straighter. Then there's the loss of 114 from the wrong players being on the bench and 40 from the wrong captain. Plus $242k in reserve for upgrades. So much happier than after round 1 last year.

Final Side: WeAreGeelong

B: McVeigh, Mitchell, Suckling, the 3 L's :) (Langdon, Laidler, Langford), Clurey, Cutler
C: Ablett, Pendlebury, Watson, Beams, Murphy, Thomas, Polec, Dunstan, Cunningham, Ellis
R: Sandilands, Hickey, Currie, King
F: Dangerfield, Martin, Roughead, Zorko, Pavlich, Higgins, Impey, McDonough

As I said in the scores thread, an awesome Rd 1 - can only go downhill from here :)
 
Nope. Quite serious.

Well thank you, then! I'm moderately happy with Round 1 (currently 833rd overall), but reversing a few of my 50-50 calls (e.g Walters and Kennedy vs. Le Cras and Roughead) would have been nice! We'll see, though; it's a long season.
 
Final Team:

B:Mitchell, Simpson, Hurn, Langdon, Langford, LMac(Georgiou,Toohey)
M: Ablett, Pendles, Watson, Beams, Tyson, Polec, Dunstan, Ellis,(Michie,Taylor)
R:Mumford, Sandilands(Derickx,King)
F: Danger, Martin, Buddy, TMitch, Pav, Higgins(Mcdonuts,J.K-H)

Scores 2372 over the split round. Not too bad, was expecting 2400+.

Toohey was in my squad to get Langdons 111 and in the process give me a week to decide which midpricer to chuck in there as i was getting headaches trying to decide last week!!!! Glad i didn't rush anything as i was tossing up Webster or B.Martin! Will now more than likely go a R.Shaw or Sutcliffe type, strengthening my weakest line

R: Goldstein, Sandilands, (Currie, King)
F: Dangerfield, Martin, Franklin, Pavlich, Higgins, Rohan (Impey, Kennedy-Harris)

2213 (ranked 17,661). Last min decision to bring in Goldstein/Currie for Cox/Thurlow - so happy Goldstein pushed on like a champ after shoulder knock. No trades this week if what I'm reading about Goldstein is accurate - just need to select best scoring rookies on the ground. Will use atleast 1, most likely 2 corrective trades next week.

I had a massive lol when I opened my team this morning to find Sutcliffe at D1 :thumbsu::thumbsu::thumbsu:

Regret not having Langdon and also regret not backing myself and going with Swallow instead of McVeigh and Shiels instead of Michie - but oh well.

Speculative pick on Porpy over Caddy. Didn't work on the weekend, but hey, no-one scores well at the Cattery. May well backfire, but I took the risk.

I don't mind your risks - you've really gone out on a limb with some calls, but its what you got to do if you really want a leg up on the comp.

Yeah, I sat down and properly looked through the online reply of the Freo/Pies game last week - I can't believe I missed Sutcliff. I was very impressed with his plays, and honestly think Lyon will play him on wing for alot of the season just because of the way he so effectively sets up play and how damaging his was in transition work - seriously considering burning a trade this week for him.

Lovin' the BMac ruck choice too! ;)
