How many Doughnuts this week ..

[footyfan_25]

Even after I make 2 trades this week ill still be getting 2 doughnuts.

1 in the rucks
1 down back (thanks to Houlihan being dropped and no Raines, Broughton again)

How many doughnuts you looking at?

 

[johno_1989]

0 dounuts lucky my bench are covering it

Ablett, Skipworth, Houla sitting on bench

 

[razor1]

The only injuries I have are Meesen, Hartlett and Hurley who are all bench players and Ablett now. I will trade off Ablett so no zeros for me this week.

Lucky to dodge most of the injuries/omissions this week. What a shocker for SC.

 

[Hondo]

By trading Ablett I'll have no donuts

However I'll have NO emergency cover in my rucks or mids

All in all before trading I have 6 players not playing - Ablett, Hurley, Hartlett, Anthony, Jacobs, Spencer

Lucky you ... i think ive had every one of them

Houlihan, Ablett, Beams, Richo, Meesen

Then have Raines, Broughton, White, Anthony, Thompson on the bench.

Will trade Out Beams and Richo, but still end up with 2 doughnuts

 

[Chism]

No doughnuts!!!!

Bench is covering for me with Ablett and Houlihan on the Pine this week!

I dont expect a good score this week though.

Haselby In for Ablett

K Cheney In for Houla

After much pondering i went with Juddy Capt over Cox allthough i bet i will regret it..... as usuall i allways jump the wrong way!

 

[IDIG]

1 if Cheney doesn't get named which im 'ok' with

 

[Chism]

1 if Cheney doesn't get named which im 'ok' with

Cheney is named in the Teams thread. But if he does not play i will have 1 Doughnut.

NOT THE BEST BACKUPS GOING AROUND LOL

IF i dont use any of my trades this is how it looks....

i have 4 of my first 22 on the bench

houlihan - replaced by suban
albett - replaced by ward
hille - replaced by pyke
skipworth - replaced by brown

ill be lucky to get a total score of 100 between the replacements

Have Houlihan in forwardline

Greenwood ---> Hill (emerg Dawson)
Ablett & Beams ---> Ziebell, Otten, Rich starting
Houlihan ----> McCaffer, Brown (emerg Walker) - similar to the Scotland dropping??

Greenwood you donkey - I don't get it.....A few days ago, acting captain Petrie said the club was happy with the improvements of Ziebell and Greenwood

 

[munk3ymark]

Probably one- Rucks are Cox and, you guessed it, Meesen, Spencer & Jacobs - the three very tall stooges.
Might trade someone in, or wear the zero- pretty sure I'll win my league game, but I really want to arrest my slide down the overall rankings, and my planning so far this week didn't include a new ruckman.

 

[Roos4eva]

0 for me atm, provided there are no late changes.

I've been very fortunate so far with injuries, only really had to trade Hille, Raines and Beams over the year because of injury and I have had Liam Anthony since the start.

The Roos are known to drop youngsters even after a string of good performances. I learnt this in previous years and don't touch them. They change their side far too much... avoid Roos all together(except McIntosh, Harding and McMahon).

 

[Judd_Magic]

I have done well to avoid dounuts (mmmm, getting hungry)

This week though the SC gods are really testing my teams depth.

Ablett out injured and Houlihan dropped. Also have Broughton, Jacobs, Spencer and Hentschel on the bench injured too.

if Petrenko doesn't make the cut then I may be playing with a dounut unless I make a backline trade but no idea what one I would do.

 

[speedy]

No donuts for me as long as 1 of Petrenko or Cheney plays, but I will have about $2.7M sitting on my bench this week if I dont make any trades.

 

[adii_7]

had 2 doughnuts last week, and copt 3 injuries this week...

looking at 2-3 doughnuts again!

 

[reddahaydn1]

who bloody knows, cheney, bock and petrenko are all not certain. and with houlihan out that leaves my backline with 2 possible zeros. dangerfield is also not certain and with ablett on the pine that could possibly be one in my mids.
i think petrenko and dangerfield will play and i would imagine bock would so i htink i'll ditch houlihan and use the cash to upgrade either hase to sewell or adcock/bock to goddard. any thoughts?

Well everything was great until Houlihan got dropped....Im a carlton supporter and didnt think it would happen!!

I just need Petrenko and Cheney to play!! I could have traded but that was against my trading plans so il stick to them and hopefully scrape through.

 

[Ingall]

No zeros, but if Cheney doesn't play I don't have an emergency in defence. Otten, White and Walker covering other positions.

Fcuk you Laidley! I knew he would eventually drop Greenwood. I've lost Greenwood, Beams, Hartlett and Houlihan this week, leaving me 2 short on the ground. Wasn't planning on trading at all this week, now im forced to...

Acting Captain Petrie says (refer below) - article is Tuesday 05/05/07 lol 2 days ago

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"We still go out there with 22 fit players and our start on the weekend wasn't too bad. We just didn't follow through."

Petrie said the efforts of 2009 debutants Jack Ziebell and Levi Greenwood had provided some on-field positives for the club in recent weeks.

 

[Biggie]

No donuts.

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

had 2 doughnuts last week, and copt 3 injuries this week...

looking at 2-3 doughnuts again!

"Chocolate covered, injury induced, sprinkled doughnuts.....arrrrlllllggghh!"

 

[Judd_Magic]

LOL @ DeadlyAkkuret

One of the replies of the year so far!

 

[Jars458]

Have one in the midfield with Ablett Beams and Hartlett all out of the midfield

Have cover in defence for Houlihan and possibly Bock via Suban and Hill.

Have nothing else on the bench though.

I am saving my trades for a few weeks and may cop a few loses in that period.
