Last night's game reminded me of the abusrdity of this competition.

I had 5 players from my Dream Team playing:

Bradshaw - only recognised forward, penny out, should rake in the points. Wrong.
Goddard - showed promising pre-season form, should be handy across half-back for 70-80 points. Wrong.
Riewoldt - champion, book him in for 110+ points. Wrong.
Power - leading Brisbane midfielder with lappin hurt, black and hadley out. should be a lazy 100 points. Wrong.
Ackland - mediocre ruckman, ill leave him out of the side, couldn't possibly play well this week. Wrong.

It just proves no matter how much thought and effort you put into picking a team, it really just comes down to luck! I would've got 200/1 odds on ackland being the highest scoring out of those guys last night, but there you have it!
Well said. im nearly in that exact position with my team

Lol I'm screwed.

I had Whitnall and Fevola today also.
thats the risk you take when you pick talls. they have potential to have very good games and by the same token very poor ones. a guy like fevola is a prime example. he will have games when he will top 120pts and others he wont clear 50.

daniel wells was handy today. but could easily improve. he didnt have any tackles today which was disapointing.

it would not have been hard to botch this round up. not very high scoring at all. guys like simpson, fevola, lappin and riewoldt all struggled for differing reasons.
going to be a low scoring round for sure. i would say highest score will be low 1900's
