[SC fish]

942/8C pretty happy with that so far

 

[Verdun66]

992/9C. Grundy C and Ridley main contributors. Missed the loop for King's 86. Reversed trades at the last moment, and forgot to change him back to E. Dumb. Although Sturt now playing so I think all of my 8 forwards are playing. So maybe I couldn't do it. A lot of Rooks still to play, so not expecting anything too great. 2100 or so says the projection.

Ridley great for his debut. Didn't know much about him, but enjoyed his game. Didn't seem to be scoring, and then he'd bob up with 6 or 8 points. Kept ticking over. Also brought in Williamson....57 on the bench ok I suppose. Be good if he just kept playing.

Building a bit of a warchest to go from World wide to Gawn. Couple of weeks and barring disaster he's mine.

What can Hawks fans tell me about Harry Jones? I’ve looped T Brown but it would be McHenry I’d be taking ahead of him unless Pickett somehow gets a call up well ahead of time. Thinking of rolling the dice and trading McHenry to Jones.

Can’t believe Ridley has only played 13 games, talk about a quick rise to SC fame!

Big wraps on him, I hope he gets a fair run in the team. By all reports he’s ready to go, fingers crossed!

Has accumulated a lot of ball in VFL and is a strong tackler. Will make up part of the midfield rotation tomorrow.

He would have played late last season but got injured just when he was about to debut. Same thing happened in 2018 too.

If he brings some of the mongrel he’s shown in the VFL then he’ll be a fun one to watch.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

5c/663.
Look forward to eating some beers and watching some footy.

McInerney.
Danger, Fort, Greenwood, Rowell.
Bont, Macrae, Taylor.
Neale, Starcevich.

Leaves me with 7 on Sunday, don't like that.

 

[Goats]

I just wanted to say **** the pricks at the Herald Sun for not giving us 3 trades a week this year. The rules of this game are dictated solely by advertising generated on the website and the game is poorer for it.

6 +C / 785 with TBrown’s 29 to come because I couldn’t trade Fyfe.

His VFL numbers are promising, need him to go okay after Hibberd was a bit of a bust last night.

Thanks both of you. I remember there were big wraps on him last year.

Yeah bit of an opportunity with the Brown loop but don’t fancy McHenry doing much better.

So Jones is not a young kid that's going to get rested after a few games ......he performs, he stays in ?

I'm going to quote "someone" famous, who said ....this is not a sprint, but a marathon

So the less said about this week, and my short term plans, the better

 

[WaynesWorld19]

samFFC you're sad mate .....you should be in my shoes

If my plans work out I'll surge ahead .....but I'm going to slide a long way this week

 

[ArdentEagle]

8/940C with Grundy loophole currently.
VERY tempted to still whack the C on Neale as he won't be tagged.

Laird, Gawn, Viney, Mitchell, Ceglar, Greene, Neale, Rowell, Wingard, Cogs with rooks Taylor, Rivers, McInerney and Starc to come.

Team has some potential but they're also very up and down. It's a weird team looking at it like this

Don't worry mate, I didn't get him either. Now we have to pay a shit load more for the privilege too.
I was secretly hoping he'd stay down in the last Q to stay more affordable next week.

Im not worried really. Have no money or plans to get him next week either. Opted for Bont while i could get him so I will see if I made the right call tonight.

 

[Andrew Birch]

Which 1 of these studs to bench this week?
Rivers
Budarick
Sturt

In some ways this season is a sprint it may be canned at any moment so we may as well throw caution to the wind and abandon long term plans for grubby short term cash and points grabs
