Round 19 Discussion & Vents

[browncow]

1379/14

Pretty disappointing, but I don’t own Grundy or Cripps.

 

[Quokka]

1234/14 got as low as 1900 a few weeks back and I'm going to seriously struggle to stay within the top 10k . So many bad trades since the byes.

 

[Andrew Birch]

1457/14 looking above par so far. Danger & Laird surprisingly the 2 fails this round.
Yeo
Hurn
Mitchell (C)
Macrae
Neale
McLean
Wingard
Rocky

Hopefully 2400+

 

[_Cayz_]

Danger, Hogan, buddy, laird and Stef .

 

[Shadow89]

1531 / 15 with Gaff (C), Titch, Rocky, Wingard, McLean, Yeo and Neale to play

Ablett, Whit, Jelly, Grundy and Dunc my only tons so far. So many 90's - 7 in total. Wish I had Cripps haha

 

[lmach]

1455/15 - wish Sier played so he could’ve covered Shuey rather than Smith.

Gaff
Yeo
Rockliff
Wingard
McLean
Mitchell (C)
Walters

Hoping for 2300.

In some good news though, luckily De Goey’s injury stopped me from going Curnow to Oliver.

I'm 199 up on you, vs your Neale and McLean. Who will emerge victorious? Oh, I have titch C instead of Gaff.

 

[DustyTiggers]

1684/17. The usualo some up some down, buddy i cant talk about.

 

[Beau_Waters for PM]

1369/15. Need a Super Sunday to salvage this sinking ship.

(alliteration intentional)

 

[TheRednWhite]

Just need Giro not to suck as my emergency for Shuey today, an 80 would be awesome. Just realised I could have swapped Giro and Ahern positions!
Would have preferred Ahern covering for Shuey

I have Giro covering him in SC so fingers crossed for us both!!

 

[Dupogi]

lets go west coast!

 

[Shadow89]

Definitely you haha. McLean will get his 85, Neale will barely ton as per usual, and the Gaff captaincy will probably spectacularly backfire on me

Oh well, makes it interesting. Was getting too bored with Titch being captain for the last few weeks. The Banfield tag gives me an excuse

 

[Shadow89]

Gaff captaincy off to a stellar start. Oh woe is me

EDIT: Good recovery in the last 5 mins of the quarter

 

[TheRednWhite]

He will be fine, Roos don't look like they will tag him. He's playing it well actually, started slow to avoid the early tag and now will finish strongly on a 130-140.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Gaff making his debut in my team finally, hopefully goes big for me

 

[Shadow89]

Stop it stop it. You always jinx my players

 

[Possum Vomit]

Good starts from Hurn and Ahern. Ahern hopefully in for a solid day for his last day in my side, before he becomes Macrae.

 

[Possum Vomit]

PS Ahern is going to be a fantasy gun in a couple seasons time. Had a few down games this year but he finds plenty of the ball.

 

[TheRednWhite]

Stop it stop it. You always jinx my players

Haha nah Gaff is too good to jinx. Will never get a heavy tag unless I get him, so he'll always just slowly accumulate. So frustrating to watch him as a non-owner!

 

[TheRednWhite]

Yep, I really stuffed up badly but not having him as mid emergency. Will be painful when he tons and Giro gets 50, guess who is my emergency for Shuey?

 

[Possum Vomit]

Haha nah Gaff is too good to jinx. Will never get a heavy tag unless I get him, so he'll always just slowly accumulate. So frustrating to watch him as a non-owner!

What's even more annoying is owning him the last three seasons prior to this, and after having a gut full of his shit putting him on your never again list, and then watching him a career best year in 2018.

 

[Joao]

I am having a mare this round but enjoying watching Ahern's score tick over. He is in for Shuey.

Hopefully he tonnes up from here.

Yep exact same thoughts. Last year he was so soft, every away game you just braced yourself for a 60 if he was tagged. Now he is a contested beast who tackles! Hasn't lost his seagull ability and now has added contested stuff to his game, the ultimate fantasy player now after so many years of waiting.

I am sworn off Higgins for this reason....
