I feel like quitting.

Had all three most of the week. Was really keen on Gov. Averaged 96 in the last 5 weeks last year. Chickened out at last minute and went Shaw/Newnes/Ibbo.

I also had Garlett after his performance against the dogs in Ballarat but switched to Salem.

Got to learn to back my gut. Having said that I backed it and picked Jack Martin and he was shocking today.
Garlett will soon enough chuck in a score of 30.

Round 1 is always a bit of a piss fart of a round anyway, more luck than anything in playing the right rookies.

1459/14 with Ablett (C)

Seems like a pretty good score compared to some others here so can't complain.

Newnes, Savage, Higgins, Steven, Riewoldt, Saad, Gray and Clark still to come.

Yeh Sinclair and Grundy are absolute SC studs, you're on a winner there! Still haven't figured out how to use the reply button? It's not that hard, it's the one which says "Reply" on it.
Now that there are few posts between mine and the one I am replying to, I can see the point of hitting the reply button. When it is the next post I kinda tend to think there's sufficient context there already. For most people, anyway.

I like Sinclair's job security better than Goodes's.

Also, Sinclair scored more than Goodes tonight.

Additionally, I liked the fact that Sinclair was priced at 20 points lower than his average from last year. Whereas Goodes is priced at double his average from last year for some reason.

Sinclair was on 55 at halftime, he had a very quiet third quarter and second half in general. They were all a bit cooked and he was probably one of the first to feel it.

His ppm in the first half were great and once he gets a few kays in his legs I think he'll last longer in games and keep scoring.

He may spud it, that's the way of it with midpricers and I'd rather back a guy I know well and believe in rather than someone every other bastard is selecting mostly because every other bastard is selecting them.

Grundy was cheap and playing in a position where I had decided to get cheap players.

My bargain basement ruck division of Belch and Grundy scored a little over 150, I'll take it so far

On track for a 2100+ score. Should be 2200+ if I had of started Vandenberg of Spud Miller and to a lesser extent Hogan over McGrath.

13/1140 odd. Expecting around 2100-2200. Nothing flash.

Newnes, Ibbotson, Sloane, Ward, J.Selwood, Wines, D.Smith, Clark, Saad and Captain to go. I reckon CD are trolling me with Abletts, Swans, Franklins and Bontempellis scores.

Anyone who had Kamdyn McIntosh, Marcus Bontempelli and Daniel Rich would have had a good return from them. $894,500 for 372 points isn't bad. Although most of the usual skips didn't have a great time. Ablett and Rocky missed out with Rocky looking to be out for an extended period. Josh Kennedy was below 100. Scott Pendlebury scored 113 and is usually a consistent scorer. Dane Swan scored 111 and his price will still be below $500,000.

1103 so far, but haven't played captain yet, probably give that to Duckwood.

Sloane, Goldstein, Selwood, Gray, Clarke to come. Ellis Yolman named on field but Vandenberg and Heeney emergencies so covered.

How did Goodes look Bulldogs fans? Good enough to hold a spot? Didnt watch the game, if he and Taylor Hunt both repeat these scores next week will try and bring in the later for the former
