The Kudos Thread 2010

[Majestic1]

Gumby, the only good thing to come out of Essendon today. You legend. Now if only he could do that every week.

Why didnt i pick him.

Would've meant only 1 trade this week as well. Picked Roberts .

Ill give a kudos to Barlow. Everyone has him but when players play well, you have to acknowledge them

 

[Papa Juggs]

Big Sandi!!!!

Ultra consistant so far. One of my good picks!!

 

[yogibbear]

Tonight: kudos to pav, sandi, barlow, broughton, ballantyne and martin.

martin and balla get extra special cherries for improving on their starts.

 

[Jonny27]

Kudos to most of my rookies/mid-pricers who I intend to upgrade or downgrade pulling out big scores. I had Maguire, Waters, Trengove, Martin, Moles, Hille, Gumbleton scoring well, Ladson and Dangerfield were the only two I werent real happy with. This makes things so much easier when I start to upgrade players in a few weeks.

 

[half_back_flank]

Kudos to X Ellis. Although you are playing like shit you are being ultra consistent in DT

 

[swans4eva]

Loving how there are 621 posts in the vent thread yet only 155 in the kudos

 

[Superstar1]

Kudos to myself for my captain choices. Both weeks when Swan has scored in the 80's i have chosen Montagna over him who has scored 134 and 126 respectively. My captain choices have been near perfect so far this year, I have scored 627 points from 5 rounds for an average of 125.4. I could have scored 1 more point in round 1 when i chose Hodge (142) over Swan (143) and a few more in round 3 when i chose Montagna (106) over Swan (112) but apart from that they have basically been perfect. Swanny it is next week i think.

can you start choosing my captains for me?

i've only had 1 ton (Bartel in round 1) from my captains all season.
Stanton rd 2
O'keefe rd 3 & 4

Bartel plays today. if he doesn't ton it up i'll be pissed

 

[Benatration]

Thanks to all my captains. My captain choices have been pretty good
1. Carrazzo - 131
2. Voldt - 147
3. Bartel - 92
4. O'Keefe - 92
5. Bartel - ?????

Average: 115.5

138 rom Bartel would be nice so I can average 120 haha

vs. someone that locks in Ablett and gets 128 avg from their captain?

Wouldn't you want to beat that as a benchmark, if rotating your captaincy is important to you?

 

[Dimitri_Mishkin]

Kudos to Trengove for rewarding my faith when there were plenty of cheaper mid rookies to choose from!

I have a pretty good team (ranked 4,000 odd) but my captain choices are letting me down a bit!

Rd 1: Bartel 114 (Stanton 145 and Boyd 128)
Rd 2: Boyd 105 (Bartel 132)
Rd 3: Bartel 92 (Boyd 154)
Rd 4: Boyd 95 (Bartel 109)

Took a punt on Duffield this week (playing bad coaches this week) who got 79 (Stanton 139!)

 

[Nothing]

Harbrow! Ripping it up against the Saints.

 

[walken79]

Massive game. Kudos to Gia, wish I had Gilbee too!

 

[Hopping Mad]

Kudos to Gia for an insane score. Kudos to Goddard for finishing strong after a slow start. Both did very well for my side.

 

[footycool]

Gia, God

 

[yogibbear]

gia, goddard and joey. 375/3. best start ever.

 

[Frankie23]

Gia you superstar! Please Matty boyd, don't rush back.

But a HUGE Kudos to Lenny Hayes, i got him earlier this arvo and he debuts with 126 Great stuff!

 

[94_Eagles]

Hayes is a steal at 424K, get on him.

 

[Benno_900]

Gia and Harbrow

 

[bones25]

Kudos to the 3,000 that selected James McDonald this year.

 

[Scootyb]

Thanks Gia, but bigger thanks to Jarrod Harbrow and Robbie Gray - all cracking the ton in a big way and softening the Ablett out

 

[Narkee]

I love Stanton!

Gave him the big "C" for the first time this year and didn't disappoint.

 

[ZergMinion]

Kudos to Scott Gumbleton. Has almost cracked 200k and his breakeven is deeply negative this round. I did not anticipate this when I picked him at the start of the year given his injury history and field position. He only made my team due to the total lack of forward rookies with any kind of job security.

He is a beautiful man and I salute him A shining light in an otherwise mediocre season.

Kudos to Gumby indeed, however it would be a whole lot more exciting if a couple more forward downgrade options came about. Not unpleased with the possibility of keeping Gumbleton as cover for the entire season but it would be nice to cash in on him at some stage down the track.

 

[cesc fabregas]

Took a risk on Stevie J as captain this week with Gablett out and he did not dissapoint. That 153 is the only good thing that has happened this week.
