2014 NAB Cup - Match Discussion

[Jiska]

Spuddy going ok I guess.

McVeigh looking ominous and I don't have him or Mitchell in my backline.

487k ok?

Didn't you and I have this very same discussion 12 months ago. You gotta let go of your man crushes

Another supercoach tonne for Polec today.

 

[hoddo]

Polec and Impey did well for Port. Lobbe and Wingard not so great.

Chad Wingard – 16 disposals (7 kicks, 9 handballs), 10 contested possessions, 3 inside 50s, 1 goal
Jared Polec – 22 disposals (11 kicks, 11 handballs), 6 marks, 10 contested possessions, 3 tackles, 2 clearances, 2 inside 50s, 2 rebound 50s
Matt Lobbe – 7 disposals, 20 hitouts, 2 clearances
Jarman Impey – 19 disposals (16 kicks, 3 handballs), 5 marks, 6 contested possessions, 2 rebound 50s

[SHAKESPEARE]

Wait until rd 1 when both bang 145's and I've ditched em

 

[Judd_Magic]

Buddy did more than enough in this one to justify a selection, didn't come back on in the second half.
McVeigh's final against the Blues last year still haunts me and is always in the back of my mind when I don't see him in my back 6 lol.

You are haunting me now too.

Just re-arranged team to fit Mitchell and McVeigh into it.

lol I reckon the team you had before was very strong, still iffy about Swallow and Grimes apparently got injured today in your backline.

Both Wingard and Lobbe were apparently < 0 in supercoach in the middle of the second quarter of that game.

I guess I'll ask the question now.

Ditch JKH for Impey?

Judging by those stats it looks like Impey will score alot better than JKH.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

No.

I've got both. I don't care about scoring...its all about JS. Impey not filling me with confidence though. Neadesque

Neade was a more than a decent cash cow last year.

If you relied on him starting for you then yeh but as a bench player he did his job. Note for Rohan at F6 owners.

 

[Judd_Magic]

lol I reckon the team you had before was very strong, still iffy about Swallow and Grimes apparently got injured today in your backline.

My mids and forwards are still the same, not changing them.

Have upgraded Lobbe to Ryder but still thinking Lobbe will do well once round 1 starts and no Renouf is in the team.

All I have done is turn Hurn, Grimes and Swallow into Mitchell, McVeigh and Sutcliffe.

Backline is full of low end mid pricers though with Sutcliffe, Webster, Griffiths and McDonald.

Risky but I reckon it could pay off and all those guys have good job security.

Rest of my team is strong too.

Just waiting for Jiska to see this and say to me "hey I told you so JM!"

Reckon you're taking a bit too much of a risk with all of those midpricers.

 

[Judd_Magic]

I'm going with Higgins at F6 (yes hanging my gonads out on the line) and McDonut at F7 and either Impey or JKH at F8.

Impey or JKH?

 

[TheOz]

Lions vs Swans - McVeigh 131, Moloney 104, Kennedy 103, Rich 95, Aish 91, Malceski 82, Rockliff 70 and Mitchell 63 DT scorers

 

[hoddo]

Impey could well be worth a spot, but surely you have another forward rookie you'd ditch before JHK.

loving Aish instead of Michie

JKH for mine but either of them will be F8s at best. Looking at Jordan Bourke actually for that spot.

 

[Judd_Magic]

Reckon you're taking a bit too much of a risk with all of those midpricers.

I might try find some cash to turn Sutcliffe into Hurn.

Sometimes some things don't need to be said

Impey or JKH?

Sounds like my team atm .. Higgins F6, McDonough F7, JHK F8. I'd wait and see who's selected. If 2 out of Lloyd, McDonough and Impey play it might be better not to risk JHK .. but I'd hate to drop him.

 

[Judd_Magic]

Impey could well be worth a spot, but surely you have another forward rookie you'd ditch before JHK.

McDonut and JKH are on the forward bench at the moment and Higgins at F6.

I have Caddy at F5 so I suppose I could downgrade him to a rookie like Impey and start McDonut at F6 and use the cash to make my backline stronger.

 

[TheOz]

So whose going with the 3/0/7 midfield too?
