I think i'm gone, and i've got a week to stew about it!

Me vs Barry's

SJ vs Chappy
Goodes vs Didak
Sylvia vs Davis

Montagna vs Ablett

(Then even though out of position)

Bartel vs Gilbert
Pendlebury vs Malceski
Selwood vs Fisher
2 points vs Shaw

No liking my chances from here. 2 points in front with one more player played. Neither captain has played but he had Franklin as his VC so he can fall back on that!
 
Us (The Ichiban Kids): 936 from 10
Goddard, Enright, Shaw, Swan, Ablett (c), Montagna, Bartel, Selwood, Chapman, O'Keefe, Didak* & Podsiadly

If Didak misses, Gumbleton will come in for me.

vs.

Them (Beckom Hawks): 1064 from 12
Goddard, Enright, Kelly, Swan, Ablett (c), Montagna, Bartel, Pendlebury, Podsiadly & Sylvia.


So basically...

Shaw, Selwood, Chapman, O'Keefe, Didak
vs.
Kelly, Pendelbury, Sylvia & 128 points.


Looks tight. Mathematically speaking, I'd say I'm just in front... but realistically, given the recent form and injury clouds over some of my players (looking at you Heater/Didak), I'd say I'm just behind. :(
 
need advice from dt gurus !!

him. ball , kennelly , watts +50 points...............captain gaj
me. grimes , penlebury , davis ..................capt to be decided between

gaj
pendles
goddard
enright
rok
pods

the above mentioned players are common between me & him he has selected to go with gaj as captain.

question is is my pendles,grimes,davis likely to out score his ball,kenelly,watts by more than 50 points........... if the answer is yes i would also select gaj as captain if no need to select a diffrent cap that will outscore gaj by around 20 odd points.

appreciate any advice from experienced dt'rs

I would have said your 3 would cover his, but now with Kennelly out you should definately cover his score. Lock in Ablett and you SHOULD cruise to victory. Would want to check out if he has a back emergeny named, and of course, what they scored (if they played last week). In any case, I'd say going with Ablett would be your best bet.

Well, some big late changes in this war of attrition.
- Captain wise, we both had Ablett... He changed to Swan, I changed to Bartel :eek:
- Chapman 'hamstrung' for me.
- Kelly and Sylvia both miss for him.

Us (The Ichiban Kids): 1817 from 18, captain played.

Shaw, Swan, O'Keefe, Didak and 26 points.

vs.

Them (Beckom Hawks): 1791 from 20.
Swan (c) and Pendlebury

What do you think fellas? Looks tight as a Nun's...

thanks for your input max power ...

he does have a back emergency which is roberton who scored 70 :(

so effectively we now have

him .... ball , watts & 120 points
me...... grimes , pendlebury , leon davis

going to be very very close & got a bad feeling i might get done by under 20 points.

its all going to come down to what neon leon dicedes to turn up i suppose.

ps........... i decided to go with gaj in the end
hindsight should of selected goddard which could be the diffrence !
but i decided the captain before your post so............. not your fault lol
 
Scraped through with a 490 point win:eek: now I will no doubt play a team that had Chappy and Kelly out this week and I will have an SJ/JB siuation to deal with.

easy win for me....thinking DT website wants me to win...each week i've been matched against a very low ranking side..

Surely all the weak teams have been eliminated by now...getting to the business end of the comp

Not all. My brother's playing a team ranked 71K. Had Chappy and traded him out this week :eek:. I guess if you're 71K you've only got the eliminator left.

I'm home by 146
 
F****ing NEON LEON......................... totally screwed me over this week !

need grimes to score 150 to win....................no effing chance:rolleyes:
We're playing the Crowbots today, he'll pull out a big score. You can do it, Jack!
