FWD bench:
Jones - 63 points
Scott - 65 points

FWD on-field:
Campbell - 29 points
Rowe - 40 points

The rookie lottery pisses me off more than anything

The teams that have Jones over Campbell on field are either 1) huge risk taking teams or 2) forgot to log in this week.

I had Campbell on, like most, but I looped Jones on for Rowe as I thought he could beat 40. So, I gained 23 points by taking the risk (downside of which was limited, he wasn't going to get 5 points two weeks in a row).

I also put Fyfe back on the ground for Dow to takes Jones 65. Dow is such a cat that he'll average less than 65, but given the Supercoach God's sick sense of humour, I suspect today's the day he tons up. (But I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours).

Rowell to Williams was dum. Very very dum.

Giving Dow a "final chance".

Absolute plodder of a footballer, just plods around the ground doing SFA & then stands around contests ball watching, again doing SFA.

Surely he's close to having played his last game.

Me too, I was the idiot who gave Dow another chance - should have done it after Round1, but I've hesitated and it was too late and fielded him for 3 weeks over the rookies - loss so many points - just on that move alone

I think in the end this trade will workout.
But didnt feel like it today.

Duggen to Cerra.

FFS.

Freo mids had their pants pulled down aswell.
Fooking ump was butal on cerra fooking kent.

I had Henry - who was marked as injured - from Freo as C as I had Grundy VC.

Didn't realise he was sub until the game started. Lost Warner's points (112) who was my forward bench and instead of Grundy scoring 324 I got 42 points...

Ouch!

You'll probably still outscore me. I've been been cholled massively and definitely no lube.

From knowing nothing about Supercoach to being a participant even dumber.
If Mundine has another fight he is the only person around dumber than all of us.

Same I’ve fielded the absolute biggest dud in the AFL don’t care who disagrees with me 3 times. I got rid of Campbell kept Dow thinking surely 4 pre seasons all that f*n talent you got to come good at some stage. Doesn’t end their even took out Impey of my side brought in Dow before season kick off you no blues fan give us round 1 against tigers all happy etc happy footys back now I’m just burning f*n Dow. I’m thinking do I just leave him on bench till someone reasonable comes along or blow another trade and get Chapman. Anyway thanks Dow worst pick 3 in the history of the AFL the bloke is just a dud

Dow at HT of Tiges Blues

Stef at FT of Pies Dogs

Dow and Stef 2 weeks later

Going at about 85% on the rookie lottery atm so it hasn't been that much of a blunder at least, not starting with Jordon, benching Rowe's round 1 ton and playing Stef over Flynn in round 1 and 3 the main ones where I've missed out on points, but I've avoided Rowe's spud scores too (just Campbell this week my only score under 40 onfield for the year)

This. Might trade him out for the Waterboy and $

What a horrid run - It's becoming a sad pattern, every round I'm coping an injury/ suspension where I have to trade every single week so far - and I'm not too sure if my team actually improved at all:
